Pairings: Yuji x Megumi, Nobara x Maki, Yuta x Rika with hints of Yuta x Toge, Kokichi x Miwa, Shoko x Utahime, Nanami x Haibara, Mai x Momo, Yuki x Choso, and Satoru x Suguru x Fem!Reader at the end.

All credit for JJK cast goes to Gege.

* Please DON'T plagarize, translate, or repost my FANFIC content. Reblog, like, and follow instead.

I hope you enjoy. And —

HAPPY HALLOWEEN~!

THE CAST'S HALLOWEEN ATTIRE!

🎃Yuji in a tiger onsie and his usual sneakers with black face paint on for the whiskers and the nose.

🎃Megumi as wolf boi with just a wolf ears headband on … he was willing to put those on for his Yuji bae and that's all you're getting.

🎃Nobara as OUAT Aurora with a sword because she is a cute badass.

🎃Maki as OUAT Mulan because I like her warrior armored suit. Blame the fanarts I've seen.

*Plus seeing fanart of those OUAT girls together made something click.

🎃Toge as the Mummy. Better that than automatically putting him in a sushi roll suit.

🎃Panda as Frankenstein's Monster. In the torn up black Frankenstein jacket, stitches painted on, Frankenstein bowler head wig, and bolts in the neck. It was either this or Killer bear.

🎃Yaga as Dr Frankenstein. Labcoat, gloves but with his shades still on. Makes perfect sense.

🎃Yuta as Bendy the Dancing Demon.

🎃Rika as Alice Angel

*They both start off cute then become quite terrifying but in the best way.

🎃Kokichi as Victor from The Corpse Bride.

🎃Miwa as Emily THE Corpse Bride.

🎃Nanami as Captain America cause I got the idea from @TimieTate on twitter. But he keeps said cap off. He'll keep the shield just to see the fanboy within faces Yu, Yuji and Ino come to life.

🎃Yu Haibara as Iron Man cause I like Stony and it all fits now. Also he used face paint to add in the beard goatee combo.

🎃Ino as a zombie with the usual horror makeup with green skin, bloody cuts, and he's a cutie wanting brains~

🎃Shoko as Sally

🎃Utahime as Genderbent Jack Skellington with a Zero plushie.

🎃Momo as Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Just the poofy velvety black dress, witch's hat, It was the broom's fault.

🎃Mai as Salem Saberhagen/Cat. It's just in a velour jumpsuit with an attached tail, layered choker necklace, cat ear headband, and ankle boots.

🎃Todo as a crossdressed Takada … cause why not.

🎃Choso as Netflix's Castlevania Dracula, with his hair loose to match. Also because of the whole blood thing.

🎃Yuki as Lisa Tepes also from Netflix's Castlevania cause they're both independent and stubborn and it just made sense to have them pair up.

🎃Riko as Wednesday Adams

🎃Kuroi as Morticia Adams

🎃Toji and Shiu as Sam and Dean Winchester. Just wearing leather jackets, rustic shirts, torn jeans and boots for the rugged look. Doesn't matter who's dressed as who. They can both make either roles work.

🎃Noritoshi Kamo as Hellsing's Alucard

🎃Junpei as Ash Williams. OG Classic. With detachable chainsaw toy hand.

🎃Nanako as Mitsuri Kanroji

🎃Mimiko as Nezuko

🎃Tsumiki as Shinobu

*They all got the wigs and custom made toy Nichirin swords. Also because Tsumiki and Shinobu share the same seiyuu. It was either her or Yor from SPY X FAMILY. Lord knows Gojo, Geto and Megumi would never want to see this girl in that kinda getup; overprotective they are.

🎃Mei as Disney OG Ursula. They both have white hair and do business with high rewarding profits. I had trouble figuring out a costume for Mei, okay!?

🎃Ui as a Flotsam Jetsam Mashup. Devoted brother/minion, so be it.

🎃Kusakabe as a Scarecrow. Apparently he's a fearful man that is courageous when it counts. It all fits.

🎃Akari Nitta as OG Disney Cinderella. Cause why not? It's cute!

🎃Ijichi as Zorro. Be a brave badass, my man!

*Those two are doing a callback to A Cinderella Story; the OG one, where Sam is Cindy and Carter is Zorro. Ergo, neither pair are couples.

🎃Arata Nitta as just a bedsheet ghost. He's timid as hell according to his wiki so there.

🎃Satoru as Wassup Ghostface

🎃Suguru as Viper Ghostface

🎃You as OG Ghostface

*Cause I gotta put my favorite horror character of all time in this and seeing fanart of them as Ghostface is a big turn on~! Plus Gojo gives Wassup vibes. And Viper looked so cool for Geto. And yes you be representing the OG!

🎃👻🦇 🎃 👻🦇🎃 👻🦇🎃👻🦇🎃👻🦇🎃

Fall has come.

Warm colored leaves whisking in the cold blowing winds.

And so much rambunctious chatter teemed the atmosphere.

The annual Halloween carnival fair has arrived.

"Fushiguro! Let's go on that ride next!" Yuji cheered enthusiastically as the pair rode the flaming pumpkin head shaped go bumper car.

"Fine fine! Just keep your eyes on the – ACK!" Megumi grabbed those mochi cheeks of Yuji's to make him face forward, both jerking forward as they got slammed in up front by another go cart.

"Itadori-kun! Eyes on the road!" Junpei laughed.

"You two can get it on later, ya know~" Ino teased, grinning, innuendo jokes going hard.

"Ino-san, please don't egg him on." Megumi grumbled, bashfully avoiding eye contact.

"If he wants to, sure." Yuji made it all seem so simple.

"WHAT!?" All three exclaimed in shock, startling the other drivers and passerby, earning him a hard yank on his tiger hood.

Mingling outside a food booth

"Mmm, umai~!" Nobara's eyes lit up with actual stars in them as she eyed her crepe with bat and spider sprinkles paired with chocolate sauce. "Delicious and Insta-worthy~! Maki-san, what do you think?"

She smacked her lips in afterthought, eyeing the"With the black and orange dyed cone, matching sherbert ice cream gave off that spooky pizzazz to put one in the festive mood "Not bad. Too much though."

"Hmm … then finding the best cammable sweets for Maki-san is our goal for this all Hallows Night!"

"Don't go overboard, baka." Maki bopped her on her crowned head, endearingly smiling. "Cause we're burning all this sugar in our workout tomorrow."

Nobara saluted. "Yes ma'am!"

From down the road, sitting at a mini table set up outside another food both, Mai scoffs at the sight. "Maki, what do you see in that girl?"

Giving heated glares to some passerby that were giving cat calls to Mai, Momo "Your envy is warranted but not tonight. Now have a spooky berry." Momo plopped a bloody frosted one from her decorated strawberry coffin into her partner's mouth.

"Out of all the people, she chose to date … her." Mai muffled through her full mouth.

"I heard that, you know." The Kyoto pair looked up to see Mai's twin and her bae standing there; Maki a bit facially irked whereas –

"We BOTH heard!" Nobara's seething face was too close for Mai's comfort; Maki restraining her from going feral, though Mai looked undisturbed.

Oh? I didn't see you there." Mai's false smile had Nobara shooting steam out of her nostrils.

"She means well." Momo; understanding Mai's protectiveness over her twin, just sat there and ate those berries away.

The baseball struck gold as the bottle tower collapsed with ease.

"Alright Nanami-san! Perfect aim as always!" Haibara cheered, clapping before pointing at the prize he wanted hanging above their heads. "How many prize booths does that make now?" Haibara beamed, arms full of stuffed toy prizes.

"This would be the fifth one. I believe we've reached a moderate amount at this point." Nanami stated, adjusting the strap keeping the star spangled shield on his back, as they walked off with their reward.

"Yeah. This is more than enough for my sister. Thank you. So here." Picking up his latest prize, he handed the Iron Man chibi doll to his beau. "As a token to remember this night."

Nanami was so taken back by the gesture. "Then you keeping this one would even things up." He plopped that Cap chibi plush right on Haibara's face.

Haibara nuzzled the Cap plush with his cheek. "I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth … Kento."

God, Nanami's heart was getting ready to burst right outta him! "Yu …" Looking straight ahead, he shyly blushed as he kept a hand on Yu's back just in case. "I'll never forget."

On a park bench, viewing the fair from across the way, the two ruggedly dressed drinking buddies were hogging the bench.

"You know spying is a bad look for you, Zen'in."

"Shut it. It's Fushiguro now, remember?" And yet, propped against the back of the bench, Toji kept glancing at his wolf eared teen son walking with his fellow sorcerer buddies through the festive grounds evidently content regardless if he was smiling or not.

"Just go say to your kids already, you big old wuss."

Downing some booze, Toji sighed. "Nah. It's better this way. Besides, his two new papas would kill me in cold blood if I got even close."

"You're actually pissed you didn't get invited to their group gathering." Shiu drolled, getting bonked in the back of the head by Toji's half empty bottle.

"Still though, nothing like a drink and a smoke outside to spend the night away." Shiu mused, smoke slipping through his lips.

Toji's semi bored eyes suddenly became focused as they trained on a former target that now alluded to his sights after slipping inside one of the many houses of horrors littered around the fair grounds.

Holding hands tightly, Riko and Kuroi jolted and squeaked among the many other costumed attendees from every jump scare triggered by the gory horrifying figures coming every which way.

"Riko-sama, it's okay if you don't want to keep going."

"No! I can be brave through this! Just to rub it in those two's smug ass faces! I can do this – mmph!" She bumped into someone's back amiss her self encouragement. Looking up into the blackest eyes of Count Choso who bluntly uttered.

"Boo."

Riko's terrified screams didn't startle Choso in the slightest as she flailed, losing balance, and falling into Kuroi's arms.

"Sorry about him, Amanai-chan. Just trying to get him in the spooky spirit is all." Yuki's head popped out from behind him, apologetically smiling.

"An incarnated object … in the flesh!" She was as terrified as she was astounded at being in his presence, especially when he punched a screeching animatronic that got too close for comfort.

"Another former Star Plasma Vessel." Choso pointed out dryly.

"I chose my own path going forward of my own free will, same as you. No need to be so blunt about it." Riko stuck her tongue out at the somewhat irked hybrid man.

"Riko-sama, let's get going. We're holding up the others behind us." Kuroi cautioned.

"Yes yes, we're wasting precious time here! The night is still young after all!~!" Not wanting to get kicked out and sued by those running the house, Yuki dragged those three out to the exit, barreling through puzzled exclaiming normies.

In a mock up Haunted Mansion ride, Kokichi stayed stiff but flustered as Miwa held his hand, hugged his arm, and cuddled up next to him in their automatic carriage seat for two.

"Are you enjoying yourself?" She curiously wanted to know.

He nods, fidgeting a bit. "And you?"

"Yes … I'm with you, after all." Miwa's genuine smile spoke volumes to how true she meant it.

"Good." He kissed her cheek all feather-like, earning a glow from her face before she peppered his face all with lipstick kisses, to his dopey smiling face.

"Oh my precious students!" That alerted the two as they spotted their sensei tearing up, to which her date used her Zero plush to pat away those tears.

"Just ignore us. We'll keep mingling with our brethren, that's all." Shoko waved to them, lounging in the fake graveyard setting.

"Not if we get kicked out over it!" Utahime panicked.

"Eh, no big deal." Shoko's usual apathetic shrug.

"You promised me you wouldn't act like THOSE TWO – MMPH!" Utahime got shushed by a smooch. Zero's nose lit up red, smooshed in between them, pouting as they parted. "You don't play fair."

Shoko rubbed her nose against Utahime's, mixing her faded blue powder with her white face powder, smiling proudly. "You make it too easy."

Outside, in a corn maze, Toge was looking ahead over the tops, carried on Panda's shoulders,

"Tsuna Tsuna."

"Go right?"

"Shake."

"Got it. Oh, Yuta, why must you leave us in your wake!? We barely see him anymore! Now he left us behind in this maze!" Panda dramatically tearfully shouted to the heavens.

"Mentaiko."

Turning this and that way, they finally found Yuta. On the hay covered ground. With Rika laying atop him.

"T–Toge! Panda! Uh … I can explain everything! I – It was just a slip –!" Yuta sweated bullets.

"He still cushioned my fall. You're always looking out for me, Yuta, my love~!" Rika gushed.

While he remained calm on the surface; that and his mouth was covered in wraps, Toge was irked at seeing his close friend being smothered by his lifelong love.

"If you two wanted to be alone, all you had to do was say so." Panda suggestively said.

"Uh, that's not – AH!" Getting pulled up to their feet, Yuta blushed at how intense Inumaki's gaze held him with such devotion. Ruffling his hair, Toge was now turning red from what those wraps didn't hide, Yuta laughed a bit at the cute sight, before Panda bear hugged them all. "I – I missed you all too!"

Leaning against the fenced borders of the exit, Kusakabe-sensei stood beside his fellow Scarecrow; a display maybe but still, staying steer clear of any unwarranted hassle.

"Kids … naively enjoying normalcy despite our true reality. As long as I don't get screwed over in the long run, I'm –!"

A clown faced balloon got thrusted in his face.

"Take one. Enjoy yourself. I mean it."

Principal Yaga, handing out spooky themed balloons to adorably costumed kids passing by with their parents, still noticed the somber fear in his eyes. Speaking of kids –

"Come on, uncle! Mom is waiting for us!"

Yaga smiled at seeing Atsuya being dragged off by his Batman dressed nephew, willing to let his guard down for the little guy, a bat shaped balloon in his small gloved hand.

Mei cackling as money rained the sky. "Thinking you can trick me out of my wits," Men with wounded pride crumbled around her. "Only to be treated to my heart's content." They should never have bet straight outta their wallets. "Now that's what I call the best treat ever~!" She was that good at the shooting ranges. And darts. And slamming the hammer to ring the bell.

"Nee-sama, on top, as always~! Perfection~!" Ui applauded in his own odd unsettling way that only his elder sister enjoyed as she laughed madly.

Noritoshi hoped Miwa and the girls' choice of costume for him wouldn't make him feel so … out of his comfort zone. And yet, the various fangirls that adored the character he portrayed had them taking him up on both sides, hugging him arms and giggling nonstop at how fine he looked. Guess letting his hair down and loose made the look really sell. Still …

"I cannot tell if this is better than dealing with curses … or worse."

Getting dragged off to God knows where, an overwhelmed Noritoshi passed the masked Ijichi-san who was mesmerized by Nitta-san as the princess she is inside and out, twirling on the bridge. "I'll make sure not to lose my glass slipper~!" She cheekily jokes.

"I'd gladly carry you should you ever lose them." Ijicji bravely offered.

"Oh thank you Ichiji-san, but I'll manage. Right, Anata?"

All she got from the tarp draped ghost of her teen brother was jerky nodding and an "Eep!"

"He's really shy. But that makes him that much more precious to me~!" She hugged her startled embarrassed tarp brother.

It brought tears to Ichiji's eyes, sniffling. "Ah sibling love … so pure!"

And for Todo. Yeah, a Takada-chan Halloween themed concert was happening nearby. And yes he got tickets to see her. Cross dressed as his #1. The man will wear it with the utmost unbridled pride and joy for his Takada-Chan. And he'd lose it seeing her dressed as the best half angel half devil in history. "Pure and forbidden to all … the perfect balance … that's my Takada-chan~" He'd be on Cloud 9 yall!

SNAP!

"Ooh, another one!" Nanko cheered.

FLASH.

"New pose time." Mimiko softly suggested.

CLICK!

"Okay, one more!" Tsumiki added.

Posing and taking photos with cosplayers of their fave online idols in their demon slayer outfits was too much fun for all those involved.

"PHOTO BOMB!"

A Wassup Ghostface popped up above Nanako's head. Followed by a Viper one appearing between Mimiko and Tsumiki's faces. Startling away their cosplaying acquaintances.

"Our own papas giving us heart attacks, unbelievable!" Nanako complained.

"It was a good scare, though." Mimiko clapped a bit.

"It made my heart jolt right out of my chest!" Tsumiki exclaimed.

"Huh? Where's Mama, though?" Nanako asked.

"She's missing." Mimiko noted.

"I thought you three would all arrive together." Tsumiki reminded them.

Gojo pulled up his mask to beam at them. "Not to worry, girls. The Mrs is fine. Quite fine, actually~" Gojo's purring tone at how fine you looked in your costume did not go unnoticed as the girls mock gagging into their hands.

Geto also pulled his mask up to peck their foreheads. "You girls keep having fun…not too much, though." Geto wanted the best for his girls too, but not around unsavory company.

"Yes, Geto-sama." The twins kissed his cheeks before dragging Tsumiki off to rendezvous with Megumi's group.

The big question.

Where are you in all this?

Photographing the moments, of course.

Entrapping these precious once in a lifetime memories.

Looking over them all from afar, your tender smile gave way to a wave of attachment as tears pricked your vision behind that mask.

This fragile tender peace amiss this cursed world was what you sought-after.

Swaying from the overflow of sentiment, empathy and affection you felt for this found family had you shaking in your actual costumed boots.

"Tell me …" You felt his cursed energy appear immediately, hovering right behind you. "What's your favorite scary movie?"

You felt giddy, butterflies flocking your nerves, smiling nervously underneath your mask. "This one." You pointed at yourself. "Duh." You giggled as he glomped you from behind, lifting your mask off to see your red cheeked beauty. "Lord forbid I wanna remember this night, digitally and soulfully. Doing group hangouts takes lots of planning, coordination and effort – AAH~!"

You squealed as Satoru lifted you up bridal style, spinning you around, marveling at your form highlighted by the moon while the fair lights made your e/c eyes sparkle like the universe laid in your gaze. Matching his Six Eyes perfectly, hypnotized by them as ever, as he kissed you openly.

"Heaven sent … you truly are." Tuffs of his snony bangs tickled your forehead and nose as his face beamed with pride and joy, unbridled love stretched from both ends of his wide smile, all for you.

"An angel for our depraved souls," Feeling those giant clothes hands cup your cheeks from behind, your toothy smile looked up to see Suguru sharing the same twitterpated expression.

"Ghosts having guardian angels … huh. Who'd have thought?" Your attempt at joking only made them give loud, slobbering, open mouthed smooches all over your face as you became a flailing giggling mess.

"Selfie time~!" Satoru chirped as he took tons of them with his phone, lots of laughs and kisses exchanged amongst the many goofy, creepy, and ecstatic faces you three made.

When midnight would soon be upon you all.

"Looks like we're right on schedule." Suguru mused as you three saw everyone that you personally invited eventually convening where the end of the fair grounds and the park meet, fairy lights hanging among, between, and around the tall hanging trees, various spooky tune favorites playing in the background to set the mood.

"Precisely." You threw the heavy ginormous bag you brought with you.

You popped it with the signature cursed energized finger gun.

It rained candy for all assembled.

While some – Yuji, Panda, Toge, Yuta, Rika, Junpei, Ino, Nobara, Miwa, Riko, Yu, Todo cause his lovely Takada-chan's concert had ended early, Nanako, Mimiko, Tsumiki, Satoru who yes scrambled over to get some too – clamored for every piece they could get their hands on.

Others – the adults at least – had restraint or not much interest.

As the fireworks went off to signal the end of the night, so much lively chatter bounced off everyone in animated mayhem, and you could only stand there and watch in amusement, content, and peace.

You wanted to freeze this moment. As well as many others. From back then to going forward.

This world – this reality – was something else.

You found more meaning, a sense of belonging, and heart in being here.

You would shape, bend and change it all to make it the kind of world you wanted it to be.

One where you could protect the smiles of those you feel attached to. Keeping this little slice of semi-normalcy intact, this somewhat safe haven of a life.

And should any curses wreak havoc upon the city – they will be most active on this night after all – this league of sorcerers would exorcise the hell outta them.

Sitting down on the grassy grounds, you were lost in the glowing sight that you got startled as Suguru slung an arm around your shoulders, nuzzling your humming self with his own.

"Truly a memorable night. Well done, love~"

You two jumped as Satoru collapsed before you two, candy stains smearing his lips, but smiling too much to care. "Best Halloween thus far! But next year we gotta top it! We should throw a bash! At our place!" Satoru's eyes were crazed and high at that point.

"Satoru, no more sugar for you tonight." Suguru lightly scolded.

"But Suguru, I feel so good right now~!" You and Sugu sucked the sweetness right off Toru's lips. "Like that but more~! Please love~?" Those puppy dog eyes and pouty lips have you kissing his lips. "Thanks you two~"

Helping Satoru sit up enough to rest on his elbows, you three spent the moment relishing the youthful scenery. Satoru's head rested on your left shoulder, Suguru's head rested on your right shoulder, and you hummed at how warm and cozy and right it all felt.

Calling out to everyone assembled to do at least one group cheer before the clock struck twelve.

Finishing the night off with one last –

"HAPPY HALLOWEEN!"

Um hi!! Is there a masterlist for the Sally x jack Disneyland videos? Or do you have any recommendations of videos you like? I’m searching up for them but keeping getting lost ahhhhh

Have a nice spooky day :]

GREAT question!! I've always wanted to make a Disneyland Jack & Sally video masterpost, but quite a few of my recommendations have been removed from YouTube and/or are no longer accessible. One example is Fatima Lakhani, a Youtuber whose videos with Jack and Sally haven't been reuploaded yet. :( There's also the famous Jack X Sally kissing Hong Kong video that has been lost to time...I'm sad to say we've been losing quite a bit over the years...

I'll still give you a list of my recommendations, there are so many out there with hidden gems that I sometimes binge a bunch of Disneyland Jack X Sally videos.

Briannacherrygarcia's Jack and Sally playlist! Definitely check out the rest of her channel if any are missing. (Not entirely Jack X Sally, but the Jack Skellington VS Grinch series is hilarious!!)

Sally is really JACK SKELLINGTON! This one is really funny and I even made a gifset of it.

Matt proposes to Sally! One of THE classics that showcased Jealous!Jack. It was a great time.

Jack and Sally T E L L I N G T H E W O R L D! This isn't the original Hong Kong JackXSally video, but it has some of the video with audio playing over it. This is the closest I can find to the source.

Another Jack and Sally Playlist! This one has a lot of them meeting children, if you're in the mood for that cuteness!

Jack and Sally meet and greet! I love this one because Jack just motions him to go away while he and Sally are staring at each other. Idk it's just perfect <3

Jack Skellington & Sally! This is the source of my GIFs where Jack is holding out Zero to the audience. Love their shenanigans.

Jack & Sally Meet and Greet 2022!

Jack X Sally Disneypark Compilation! We definitely need more compilations out there, since so many videos are going down </3

--That's all I can find on me for now, but if you want to indulge in Jack X Sally Disneyland goodness, Briannacherrygarcia (the first link) has all the classics and best videos to watch. There are a lot of Meet & Greet videos out there, but it's the best when people who regularly come and see them make videos. Have fun!

I should make a masterlist of my favorite Disneyland Jack X Sally photos...<3

#the nightmare before christmas #nightmare before christmas #disneyland #jack skellington #jack and sally #jack x sally #sally skellington #youtube #briannacherrygarcia #ask #anonymous #disneyworld #my internet got cut off so ill come back and add more if i find them #while making this i found videos i wanted to put taken down. AUGH!!!#halloween

MH/TNBC: Family Portrait

Back again with a fresh, new drawing! It mainly leans towards Monster High fan art, but since it has characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas, it's a crossover piece! This time, I was inspired by the Skullector 2-pack of Jack and Sally that dropped recently, and I decided to make a family portrait. It's also a great opportunity for me to introduce you... Jacklyn Skellington! She's a Monster High OC I made some years back, and I'm just now reviving them in honor of the franchise's big comeback. This is my first time drawing Jack and Sally since I first drew them back in 2020 (on separate drawings), and I wanted to do something a bit different for them, especially Jack.

I made our Pumpkin King a bit "realistic" by giving his skull some shape, giving him five bony fingers instead of four, and also making the bones an off-white color to give them that aged sort of look. Also, I added elements of Jack and Sally's Skullector looks onto the characters to tie in the Monster High theme (I love Sally's dress in the 2-pack, I think having her wearing her original dress is more her style, especially after reading "Long Live the Pumpkin Queen"). I also do realize that I forgot Zero, but at that point, I had no room to put that ghostly canine. But he's still a part of the family! Also, this is just my excuse to say that the world of Nightmare Before Christmas/Halloween Town exists in the Monster High universe. Good luck telling me otherwise. 😆

The Love from a Skeleton [Jack Skellington X Reader]

Plot: Halloween... The time of year you absolutely hate. Not because of the ghouls and monsters, you enjoyed that kind of thing, it's because of trick or treaters. They get free candy and whine and complain to their parents if they didn't get what they expected, which is the whole bowl of candy. Anyways, since you don't celebrate that holiday, you decide to go for a late stroll through the woods on the hiking trail. While walking, your whole life changes. And I mean that literally... Everything started to change drastically until you find trees with holiday symbols on it. One of them being a Jack-o-lantern. Being curious, you enter through the door and discover a world that would represent a children's book written by Stephen King. But the leader of this place was a king. Not just any king... A pumpkin king. His name is Jack Skellington. He's a very tall and slender skeleton with a pinstripe suit, a black cat bow tie and ghost dog named Zero. He discovers you and welcomes you to Halloween town until he can figure out how to send you home. But this place is perfect! No taxes to pay No drama And no more loneliness Jack believes that your hideous. But don't worry, hideous in the Halloween town definition means... Beautiful. Enjoy! *I do not own the Nightmare before Christmas. All rights belong to Tim Burton and Disney™*

Chapter 4

Previous ~ Next

Jack took some time with retrieving the proof he needed for proving that Christmas Town existed, but what he retrieved was probably more than enough. He had carried a huge sack filled with Christmas decorations and actually managed to retrieve a small Christmas tree.

He even managed to retrieve a snow mobile! 'How did he get that without someone noticing' you thought to yourself. Jack had the sack on the back of the snow mobile and motioned for you to get on the snowmobile. "I don't think there's any room left for me".

"You can sit in the front" he said with a smile.

"Then how will you know where your going"? Jack laughed a little at your question since it had an obvious answer. "I think you forgot that I'm taller than you. I'll still be able to see where I'm going".

"Oh! Sorry".

"Don't be, but let's hurry before were spotted". You quickly sat down in front of Jack and the snow mobile started moving. His long bony arms reached around you to take a hold of the handles. Jack and you rode off away from Christmas Town to find the trees again and went back to Halloween town.

During the ride back to Halloween town, all of this made no sense and you wondered why this existed. Did anyone else know about this place?

Is this a dream?

Why is Jack the Pumpkin King being so nice and can he really be trusted?

Jack was a gentleman, so you that was a little bit of a trust sign. "Alright, only one more item to display and we'll be ready" Jack said then walking out the back door to get the Christmas stocking. You smiled and started becoming anxious. Before this moment, you requested to walk to the town when you both were at the cemetery. You said you didn't want the town's monsters to see you yet. He understood and directed you to the back entrance of the town and also told you to go ahead and go inside the building and wait for him.

Jack came back with other objects in his bony hands and set them down on the table that was set up. He turned to you and said, "(y/n), I'm not sure how long it'll be until we get you home but until then, I thought it would be nice if you introduced yourself to everyone". Your heart stopped in fear. You were always nervous when it came to large crowds and a brunch of eyes looking at you. "I can't".

Jack looked confused. "Why not? What's the problem"?

"Jack"?

"Yes"?

"Do you know what anxiety is"? Jack thought about it for a moment and really started to ponder the real meaning of the word. "No, I don't. Why? What does it mean"? You started to tell him what it was and how badly it affects you. "It means I get extremely nervous in crowds and never really feel safe in new places. I can sometimes have panic attacks with too many people around or too many people looking at me. Most of the time, it's me assuming that people are judging me and want to harm intentionally".

A stray tear fell from your eye and when Jack saw that, he quickly wiped it away and made you face him completely. "(Y/n), you have nothing to worry about. I'm right here. If it makes it any better for you, I'll be right with you and inform them all about your... uhh..."

"Anxiety".

"AH, that's right. Don't worry". Jack had this reassuring smile and you nodded to let him know that you were ok with letting him introduce you to everyone. Your heart was pounding out of fear and when Jack left to go behind the curtain, you saw a mirror with it cracked and some of it's pieces gone. You quickly ran to it to adjust your hair and clothes to look decent, at least. "Alrighty, everyone. Settle down".

You quickly rushed to the curtain and stood by the spot where Jack went through. "We have a new... temporary member of Halloween town. She's very shy and this may shock you, but she's not a monster. She's a human". You then heard gasps of horror and nerves. That made your anxiety worse. "Now now, relax. She's a very sweet girl and I expect all of you to give her a warm welcome to (y/n)".

The curtain pulled back a bit to reveal you. You took a couple steps forward and tried to look away from the eyes of curiosity and amazement. "Hello. As Jack said, my name is (y/n) and I'll be here for a short time. So I apologize for the inconvenience". The monsters seemed to enjoy so far so they decided to ask the questions they all had. "Do you like Halloween"?

"Yeah. I love it".

"What about monster's".

"I like them too".

"How bout zombies"?

"Vampires"?

"Mummies"?

"Witches"?

"Bat's"

"Alright, everyone, please calm down. We shouldn't overwhelm her with too many questions". Jack then said to you, "I apologize. They have never seen a human being up close before". You smiled at him and said, "It's okay. Curiosity killed the cat, you know". Jack chuckled and said, "Very true".

Jack then went to the podium that was beside you and said, "Now that the introductions are finished, I want to tell you all about, Christmas Town". The spotlight shined down on Jack with bat's flying away and he started to sing.

There were objects

So peculiar

They were not to be believed

All around

Things to tantalize my brain

The monster were listening in amusement to Jack's song.

It's a world unlike anything I've ever seen

And as hard as I try

I can't seem to describe

Like a most improbable dream

But you must believe me when I tell you this

It's as real as my skull

And it does exist

Here, let me show you

Jack pulled back the curtain to reveal everything he collected. He took ornaments, lights, presents, a stocking and the little star that goes on top of every tree. The monsters looked in amazement and shock and it was a bit funny to witness. Jack picked up one of the presents to continue his song by describing the object.

This is a thing called a present

The whole thing starts with a box-

The monsters chimed into his song with questions that correlate with the song.

A box?

Is it steel?

Are there locks?

Is it filled with a pox?

A pox! How delightful, a pox!

Jack kindly interrupted them to continue his singing.

If you please

Just a box with bright colored paper

And the whole thing's topped with a bow

Then the witches chimed in as well.

A bow?

But why?

How ugly

What's in it?

Jack continued to sing.

That's the point of the thing

Not to know

The monsters chimed in again but the clown snatched the present to get a better look at it.

It's a bat

Will it bend?

It's a rat

Will it break?

Perhaps it's the head that I found in the lake

Jack took the present back and continued to sing.

Listen now, you don't understand

That's not the point of 'Christmas Land'

Now pay attention

Jack picked up the stocking next.

We pick up an oversized sock

And hang it like this on the wall

A monster with a top hat came closer to look at it.

Oh yes

Does it still have a foot?

Then a much smaller monster that resembled him popped out from under his hat to continue the lyrics.

Let me see

Let me look

Then another smaller monster popped out from inder the small one's hat and still continued the lyrics.

Is it rotten and covered with guck?

Jack continued his singing.

Let me explain

There's no foot inside

But there's candy or sometimes it's filled with small toys

The monsters, once again, chimed in. But it was a small mummy and bat monster who chimed in first.

Small toys?

Do they bite?

Do they snap?

Or explode in a sack?

Now other monsters chimed in. Again.

Or perhaps they just spring out and scare girl's and boy's.

Then the one who was, supposedly, the mayor chimed in.

What a splendid idea

This Christmas sounds fun

I fully endorse it!

Let's try it at once

Jack continued his singing.

Everyone, please

Now not so fast

There's something here that you don't quite grasp

The monsters looked a bit confused but kept listening. Jack then looked to you and said, "Well, I may as well give them what they want". You nodded and Jack continued his singing.

And the best

I must confess

I have saved for the last

For the ruler of this Christmas land, is a fearsome king

With a deep mighty voice

Least that's what I've come to understand

And I've also heard it told that's he's something to behold like a lobster

Huge and red

When he sets out to slay with his raingear on

Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms

That is so, I've heard it said

And on a dark, cold night under full moonlight

He flies into a fog like a vulture in the sky

And they call him

Sandy Claws

The monsters cheered for Jack's performance and he quickly took a hold of your hand as he went back behind the curtain to continue his song. But this time, he was more quiet and softer with his singing since it was just you and him.

Well, at least their excited

But they don't understand

That special kind of feeling

In Christmas land

Oh well

It appeared that Jack was done singing and you approached him and said, "Jack, I appreciate it as much as you do". You went and picked up the snow globe to shake it again. "It will take time before they understand but understand this from me". Jack looked to you and awaited for what you were going to say. "I don't know how long I'll be here for but I really want to see you take on Christmas. I can tell it will be amazing and I promise I won't miss it". Jack smiled and hugged you unexpectedly but you smiled and hugged back.

The other monsters may seem harmless, but you only trusted Jack. It will take time before the other's can be trusted. But the questions are...

How long will you be here for and will you ever go home?

TNBC Shower thought #6: Oog-booge revooge

(( OOC:

If you've followed this blog long enough you probably noticed the distinct lack of a certain gambling boogieman on here despite him being a staple of the franchise. The in-canon explanation is scattered throughout the blog as to why Oogie still be very dead, but I just gotta be honest with you all: I don't dig giving Oogie Boogie 'depth'.

I especially don't dig giving him depth by way of him having a connection with any other (canon) characters. Why?

If we're being totally cynical here, Oogie exists in Nightmare souly to make Jack not look as bad because Jack is the real antagonist of the story, not Oogie.

Oogie is the villain, the one who likes enacting harm, Jack is the heroantagonist all in one, he doesn't mean any harm but all of what happens in TNBC is his fault.

Oogie only plays a part in Jack's Xmas specifically cuz of Jack's lack of oversight and carelessness; even without Jack's specific instructions, Santa and Sally being Oogie's victims are his fault, and it's why Jack has to be the one to save them in the end. Whether or not you think Jack learned his lesson or is a bad person and TNBC is 'bad actually'i s it's own deep dive, but personally I really like followup material that show Jack being his best self (Zero's Journey: peppy, monsterboy pumpkin king doing what he can) as opposed to his worst self (Kingdom Hearts/Oogies Revenge Jack: uber selfabsorbed manchild who never cares about others feelings, despite the movie implying he's learned to do better).

All of this is coming up for me because the newest comic book for Nightmare went into the writer's canon backstory and it delved into one the ideas I absolutely hate: Oogie and Jack were once friends.

Making Jack and Oogie friends in the past or even just amicable to each other is a REALLY big misstep on the part writers, because it makes Jack's murdering Oogie in the film so much worse.

Oogie Boogie's death was the one part of Nightmare that truly disturbed me as a child. Having Jack so passively and aggressively skin Oogie alive and do nothing but scowl as his insides fall out in agony already makes Jack look like a Christian Gray level non-comeuppance-sue but ESPECIALLY if you tack on the idea that Oogie and him were friends once!

Jack's not Optimus Prime or Superman who's all about enacting justice and fighting for what's right tm. He's Jack Skellington. He's still a scary monster Halloween king of nightmares you don't want to mess with. In Henry Selick's words on the 2008 commentary track for Nightmare, the citizens of Halloween Town aren't 'monsters' (bad people) and neither is Jack, really. He's scary because that's his job but he and his town never mean actual harm, it's just that what they ENDS UP doing by way of Jack also being a self absorbed manchild which makes him actually dangerous.

Oogie is the exception to that. I always felt even as a kid, that the implication for why he's locked up by the rest of Halloween Town was always pretty clear: Oogie does mean real harm. Oogie wants to hurt people. He has no delusions of grandeur like Jack, yes, but he wants you dead for his own pleasure and that's really not okay and not 'a good scare'.

"It's much more fun I must confess when life is on the line, not mine of course, but yours old boy, now that would be just fine!" - Oogie, kinning the guy who runs McKanney Manor

Even the demo version of the final fight makes clear Oogie's idea of 'fun' is torture:

"No Jack, messing with MY IDEA OF FUN!"

Jack coming to his own and actually doing something about Oogie should be a moment of "Jack really IS back! 8D! And he's actually finally doing something about the incelcryptobro in his basement that he knows everyone dead! Jack's being responsible! 8D 8D!" for the audience, not "wow. Jack is dirtbag who never faces consequences and murders people for problems he caused 8C. And the movie takes his side because Jack's 'cool' and Oogie just so happened to be causing harm. The movie gives Jack an excuse. 8C 8C"

I'm not saying the latter is what you end up taking away as a viewer. I'm saying that's not the vibe you want and it's why for, in Jack's story, which TNBC is, Oogie really should be just a big bully with no nuance of his own. Or at least, no nuance that means anything TO Jack.

Oogie Boogie is kind of basic. I personally love him for that even though I don't know exactly how to write him and I want to make TNBC stuff without him as a villain. But believe me- as a villain lover I totally get the need to try and make more out of our potato-sack daddy.

If you're rightfully mad that the one BIPOC-voiced character in the cast is the bland ebbul dude, that's beyond valid!!! (no- I don't think think the coding or casting was intentional, but the pro-segregation coding in Lion King also wasn't intentional...doesn't mean it isn't problematic).

If you simply want a more interesting villain-big-bad that exists to make the main hero look better, that's all fine and good too.

Me personally, I'm currently stumped on how to flesh out Oogie and not make him a complete, actual monster by Halloween Town's standards. I'm currently trying to think around this...but we'll have to wait and see...

My biggest issue is how, because he's fun while he kills people, some fans go the opposite route Oogie is made into a harmless hammy bafoon stripped of all his teeth and his real personality. I'm sorry to do this but Oogie is NOT in love with Sally. Oogie is not Sally's sassy best friend who's great at calling Jack out on his bad boyfriend-ness.

That's not Oogie Boogie. That's Angel Dust but that's not Oogie Boogie.

I like my Oogie being a bully. Not a puppy dog, not a tragic character, just an actual unbridled monster in the midst of this town of performance scarers.

But...That's just my take, not yours. If you love Oogie being perfect and flawless to counteract Jack's supposed 'perfectflawlessness', if you wanna see him as a real nuanced character because Oogie is definitely a fun one...right on. I'm not your mom.

But yeah, that's why Oogie doesn't appear too much in my comics except for in prequel stuff. Granted, I do want to do more with him but I'm stumped as for now so Oogie stays double dead.

If he does show up and makes friends, expect his friends to not be Jack and Sally because Sally's got better friends and no way would Oogie trust Jack after all Jack's put him through.

In other news, I'm an annoying boomer now about the comics))

Spooky ~ *Son Youngjae*

Summary: You promised Eric no spooks or scares tonight. It was just supposed to be a wholesome movie marathon with candy. So why did the lights just go out all of a sudden?

Pairing: Son Youngjae X G/n!Reader

Genre: Fluffyish Oneshot

Word Count: 1149

Warning: Bad attempt at a prank, swearing

Masterlist

Taglist: @foxwinter

A/N: Happy Halloween!

Ever since Changmin found out how easy it was to scare Eric, he has never known a moment of peace. Any chance Changmin can freak out his friend, he takes it. As Eric’s beloved girlfriend, you know you should be supportive and tell Changmin to stop. However, every time he got scared, he ran into your arms, crying about how terrified he was and how thankful he was that you protected him. So really you can’t complain.

When spooky month finally rolled around, you planned on watching some tame Halloween movies with Eric in costume. That is the best part of the holiday: the costumes. He was wearing a Jack Skellington onesie, while you were in your Sally onesie. You even had a Zero plush in between the two of you. It was super comfy. You both had just finished the Halloweentown series and were just starting Hocus Pocus.

It was the perfect night, really. Eric needed a night to take a breath after working so hard on their latest comeback. You also missed being curled up against him, with his arm slung protectively over you. Not only that, but it was fun to eat as much candy as you wanted and watch cute Halloween movies together. Everything was great.

And then the power went out.

“Aw man.” You groaned, blindly looking for your phone. “What the hell happened?”

“I don’t know.” Eric answered, sounding just as surprised as you. “I think a fuse might have blown? But I could be wrong…”

Turning on your phone’s flashlight, you frowned. “Damn. Do you know how to fix it?”

He shook his head. “Unfortunately, no.”

“Well, we can call maintenance I guess.” You were about to dial the number when a strange noise reached your ears.

You felt Eric stiffen next to you. “Did you hear that?” When you nodded, he then asked, “What was that?”

“I’m not sure. But it’s probably nothing.” You glanced over at him to see him pale considerably. “If you’re scared, I can go check it out.”

“What? No!” He sputtered, grabbing onto your arm so you wouldn’t leave him. “What kind of boyfriend would I be if I let you go wandering around the dorms alone when you could get hurt? Besides, I’m not scared at all!”

You couldn’t help yourself as you asked, “Are you sure?”

He scoffed. “Positive. Weren’t you calling maintenance?”

Just as you were about to reply, the noise sounded again and you stood up. “Here, you call them yourself. I’m going to go check it out.”

“What! No! Absolutely not!” Eric’s grip on your arm tightened, telling you just how scared he pretended not to be. “Haven’t you seen any horror movie ever? You go out there and something bad will happen to you or to me!”

“Oh, don’t worry about little ole me. I’ll be fine!” You assured him. “But if you’re so worried about my safety, I’ll get a knife from the kitchen and then go hunt for some monsters! It’ll be fun!”

“No! It will not be fun!” He whined. “Just stay here, with me, so I can keep you safe.”

You chuckled. “I don’t know, I think I’m the one who needs to keep you safe.”

“Rude.”

The sound was a lot closer this time. “Okay, seriously, Eric. I need to go see what’s out there. I promise I’ll be safe but I need to see what’s happening.”

“Y/n!”

But you were not deterred as he continued to pull at your arm. Grabbing your phone, you kissed him on the cheek before finally shaking him off you and leaving with the light. He watched it disappear into the kitchen with you. When the light didn’t move, he thought you were just being picky-choosy over which knife to use, but it still wasn’t moving.

Despite the feeling of imminent danger, he called out, “Y/n?”

The light went out, plunging the room into complete darkness.

Now Eric was terrified beyond belief. What the hell just happened? Fumbling with his phone, he turned on the flashlight and made his way into the kitchen. You weren’t there but your phone was. Confusion and fear made him start to shake. Why didn’t you just listen to him and stay with him on the couch?

“Seriously, Y/n, this isn’t funny! Come back right now!” But nothing happened.

Taking matters into his own hands, he started to search for a knife for himself. But he found that all the silverware was missing. Instead of pondering why the spoons were also missing, he started to hyperventilate.

“THIS ISN’T NOT FUNNY ANYMORE Y/N! COME OUT NOW!” He shouted, his voice wavering with fear.

The door opened and Eric rushed to see if Y/n had come back. But it wasn’t her. It was Changmin. Anger started to overtake his fear as he grabbed his collar.

“Changmin! I knew you were behind this! Where’s Y/n? This isn’t funny! What are the two of you planning?” Eric snapped.

His friend looked at him like he was crazy. “What are you talking about? I just came to steal some of your candy because Sunwoo won’t talk to me after I took him to that haunted house yesterday.”

“Then why is the power out and WHERE IS Y/N?!”

“Dude, I don’t know, but whatever you think is happening, it isn’t me. Y/n told me to give you a break tonight, so I decided to just torture Sunwoo instead. I have no idea what’s going on here!” He explained.

Eric’s fear doubled. Someone was in the dorm room and they had taken his girlfriend. “Then where’s Y/n…”

“She’s not here anymore.” A voice whispered in his ear behind him.

Letting out the loudest scream ever, the lights flickered on. Kevin was laughing his ass off and even Changmin was doubled over laughing. Eric could feel a few stray tears slip down his cheeks. He wanted to throttle both of them for this stupid joke!

“What the hell Kevin!” He screamed. “That’s not funny!”

“It wasn’t supposed to be funny!” Kevin said. “It was supposed to be scary and I got you so good!”

“Shut up, where’s Y/n?”

Jacob then appeared, with Y/n by his side. You huffed, folding your arms over your chest. “Jacob grabbed me when I entered the kitchen. Seriously guys, I said we’re not doing the scary thing tonight! Now apologize to Eric, or so help me, I’ll get you back five times as bad as you got him.”

Kevin and Jacob quickly apologized to Eric. “We’re sorry. We didn’t mean to scare you that bad.”

He just scoffed and pulled you into his arms, burying his face into your shoulder. Stroking his hair, you whispered in his ear, “Want to keep watching movies with me? I can kick these idiots out too.”

Eric nodded, smiling that he had the best person ever in his arms right now.

Nightmare before Christmas remake rumor

We're in autumn and the thirtieth anniversary of Nightmare before Christmas so this is the time of year for rumors and gossip about Nightmare before Christmas and Hocus Pocus (which is also now thirty-years-old). Remember, for years there were rumors of Hocus Pocus 2 "coming soon" before the sequel was finally made, twenty-nine-years-later.

The latest rumor is that Johnny Depp will be playing Jack Skellington in a "Live action" Nightmare before Christmas remake to be directed by Tim Burton. This rumor has appeared on several Halloween groups and pages that I follow. Now, here are the reasons I do not think the rumor is true.

1. Back in the 90s Disney wanted to do a direct-to-video Nightmare before Christmas sequel but i would have been computer generated. Because they would not consent to stop motion, Tim Burton would not allow it. 2. Part of what makes Nightmare before Christmas what it is, IS the stop motion. The stop motion animation in Nightmare before Christmas is a tribute to classic Rankin-Bass holiday specials (mostly Christmas) which were usually done in stop motion animation. 3. The very reason Zero (Jack's ghost dog) has a tiny Jack-o-lantern for a nose (referenced as early as Tim Burton's original Nightmare before Christmas poem) is a homage to Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, more specifically Rankin-Bass's stop motion animated Christmas special of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. 4. Yeah, it would probably mostly be CG but do you know how many special effects the movie would need? The main character is a skeleton. It would be a half-CG, half-live-action abomination, and probably with sub par computer animation. You know how cheap Disney is with their remakes. 5. Tim Burton actually hates working with too much CG. Apparently he nearly had a break down while making Alice in Wonderland because of all the green screen he had to work with. He prefers practical effects and Disney is not likely to allow that. 6. Nightmare before Christmas is very personal and precious to Tim Burton. You really think he would let them make a dubious fad live-action remake out of it? 7. Johnny Depp currently has substance abuse problems combined with a soiled reputation from the whole Amber Heard situation. Disney has not been very kind to him lately because of these things. They wouldn't be fast to cast Johnny Depp in anything. Yes, Tim Burton loves to work with Johnny Depp but Disney still has final say. 8. Tim Burton has been pretty busy lately with Beetlejuice 2 and Wednesday the Netflix Addams Family spin-off series. 9. There are no legitimate news sources for the claim that Nightmare before Christmas is getting a live action remake. 10. The first time this rumor circulated was on April 1st. April Fool's Day. This is why I hate fake news stories on April Fool's Day, because months (or even years) later people start spreading the story again as if it's true. 11. Henry Selick knows where the Disney execs live...

🔀 mix up those s/i's and f/os!!!

Send me a 🔀 to create a 'crossover ship' with different s/is and f/os

Okay okay thank you!!! This is such a fun prompt and I love the Ultimate Freedom to write about anyone I want to!!

Some ships that I think would really work out:

-Star Echo (from Welcome To Night Vale) and Zero Rick: the whole 'star given human form' would work really well as an alien species for an AU!!!

-Silvertongue Echo (from My Hero Academia) and Lord of Heart Echo (from Homestuck) have similar superpowers and I think they would definitely benefit from talking to each other about their techniques of dealing with it and also maybe kissing about it :P

-Witch Echo (from American Horror Story) would have a pretty good enemies/lovers dynamic with Jonah Magnus, as well: I'm not sure what that self-insert would do with the Entities but I think they would really hate what Jonah's up to

-Because Halloween Echo (from Nightmare Before Christmas) was mostly created to tie into Jack Skellington's exhaustion with the entire 'never-ending cycle' of Halloweentown, I think they would be an interesting pair with Toshinori and his own exhaustion with his role as a hero/symbol. Also, their aesthetics would clash in a way that I love, and I think Toshinori would be so nice and gentle with someone who is made of porcelain.

-I've written a dnd AU for me and Death, which was honestly just Bard Echo with Death. Really, about half of my self-inserts would be totally shippable with Death, she's one of my ultimate loves in every universe that I find myself.

#may doodle some of these crossovers!!!#i know my s/is are more visually distinguished and it's hard to know who i'm talking about with just titles #i hope this is moderately comprehensible #crossover ships #selfship #ask game

Long Live the Pumpkin Queen by Shea Ernshaw Review

I'm a HUGE fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas. It's definitely my favorite movie of all time and helped me shape my personality, haha. I even have a collection of The Nightmare Before Christmas items in my bedroom. So, when I heard that my beloved movie was getting a sequel, I had to check it out. Luckily, Sandy Claws was generous this year and gifted me this book. Check out my thoughts below :). Spoilers are ahead, so read at your own risk!

Plot

Sally Skellington (nee Finkelstein) is the new Pumpkin Queen of Halloween Town. Sally is now thrust into the world of royalty, with fittings, expectations, and uncertainties in all. She can't help but feel trapped, that instead of the prison under Dr. Finkelstein, she's now imprisoned by this new life. Sally and Zero accidentally uncover a long-hidden doorway to a long-forgotten realm called Dream Town in the forest Hinterlands. Curiosity killed the cat and Sally unknowingly sets into motion a chain of sinister events that put her new queenship, and the land of Halloween, into jeopardy. Will Sally realize what it means to be true to herself? Will she save the town...or will her future become her...nightmare (note: pun totally intended)?

Discussion

I absolutely love this book! I always wanted to know what it was like in the other holiday worlds- I dreamed of the day that Tim Burton or Disney (whoever caved first) created a short where Jack would open the door to Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, or even Easter! So it was an absolute delight that we (the reader) got to explore the other worlds, with Sally and Jack. I also loved seeing Sally go through a new chapter in her life. As a 25-year-old still figuring out what she wants to be when she grows up, and adjusting to living on her own for the first time, I really related to Sally's journey throughout this book.

I enjoyed Miss Ernshaw's writing and world-building- she was creative with what each holiday town entailed but still respected the material. I also loved the idea of the Hinterlands, the long-forgotten holidays, and the ancient realm of sleep.

I do have to say...the twists in this book were aplenty! I enjoyed each and every one.

Rating

5/5

presenting: eleven elaine skellington.

so, obviously eleven is the adopted daughter of jack & sally, as well as sister to my oc seven & gamecn’s oc thirteen.

she’s twenty-three years old.

rachel sennott fc.

polyamorous, biromantic, & bisexual.

basically, eleven has a lot of love to give, but you have to earn it to receive it.

alrighty, here’s the dealio, eleven is like her mother: a living doll (though eleven is porcelain, not rag). no one knows who created her. doctor finkelstein refutes the claim that he is responsible and no evidence as been found to make one disbelieve him.

see, eleven wasn’t found in halloweentown. she was found in valentine village (what i hc the town behind the heart door is called). it was a very confusing time for all of the valentine folks to see this obviously halloween kid in their town. no one has figured out how she got there.

but she is very welcomed in the valentine community, even so much as having close friends & visiting the place constantly.

she was brought to halloweentown on september eleventh (11.11) the year before auradon was established. at just a year old, she could already walk and say full words. jack & sally were smitten by this little girl made of cloth, pulling her into the family as their child. as her creation date is unknown, sep 11 is her honorary bday.

this date is also where she got her name from.

speaking of her name, she goes by the full “eleven,” but some people call her “ellie” if they think a number is a silly name.

like how seven sometimes goes by “sev.”

she has a golden doodle named “four hundred forty four.” yes, this is a long name. why such a long name? eleven enjoys numerology—especially angel numbers. sequences of fours symbolize stability. if one sees fours in a sequence, then they are putting down roots or grounding themself. she knows that if she’s ever feeling doubt about her place in life, she can look at her dog & feel sure in herself once more.

plus, seven had already claimed “two” for his cat.

two & 444 don’t like each other. zero & 444 are besties, tho.

speaking of numerology, eleven is a number about being at one with the universe & one’s self / inner wisdom.

even if her name didn’t come from this meaning, she’s delighted with it anyways for the same reason she likes 444′s name—she can look at herself & feel sure because she’s always going to have her own wisdom & the universe on her side.

eleven wants to be an electrician. she is currently under apprenticeship for this work.

since she’s a doll, she can remove her limbs. each part of her body can come apart & be put back on. this is good for her since she can just send an arm or a hand to do a thing that’s too far for her.

she is glued at each limb & her neck. se also has minor glue spots where she has chipped before.

she has a whole lot of tattoos. they cover up the glue lines holding her together. her favorite is the barbed wire around her throat.

eleven absolutely adores her family. especially her brothers.

she jokes that she’s the odd one out—only one to not have a previous life, only one to not be twenty, only one to be a girl—but she doesn’t ever feel left out.

while she wouldn’t kill for her family, she would make anyone who hurts them have a miserable rest of their life. no one touches a skellington & gets away with it. not if eleven has anything to say about it.

i’ve mentioned before that i think the skellingtons would be kind of ostracized in royal auradon circles for being figurehead royals. eleven, as crown princess (only in name as jack will never die & therefore never leave his throne), is far too aware of this. it’s always her name on the invitations to royal functions. it’s always her name in the mouths of snobby royals.

it’s the same with those of halloweentown who have conflicted feelings. they feel that if their king will never die, what is the purpose of calling his kids “prince(ss)?” why even have children in the first place? they aren’t even royal by blood, only adoption.

she tries to not let it get to her, but it’s hard sometimes.

when she’s off the clock, she & seven dress a lot alike. comfy & oversized sweaters, dark colors, lots of layers. the main difference is that eleven uses blues, reds, & blacks while seven uses oranges, blacks, & neutral tones.

however, she has a secondary aesthetic of “goth, but make it fusion.” if you’ve ever heard of hawiian goth or cowgoth—that’s what i’m talking about.

freckles!! they aren’t natural, but eleven takes the time to put a brown eyeliner to her face & a toothbrush w/ brown eyeshadow to her cheeks every morning.

#tw: zero skellington #*eleven #eleven —☆— headcanons #//#I COULD HAVE SWORN SALLY HAD FRECKLES WHICH IS WHY I MADE 11 HAVE THEM #BUT LOOKING BACK SALLY DOESN'T HAVE THEM??? WHAT!!#however 11 is keeping her makeup freckles bc i think it's adorable.#anygays we have all three of the skelle sibs for the first time since the rpg they were formed in dissolved!!#decided to take her on myself bc no one contacted me about becoming her mun (which was expected but ya know...#a three way thread could have been super fun)#i remember someone asking if the skelle sibs were named in birth order (ex: seven was seventh born)#which while not true is funny to look back on #(nah it was lucky 7 & unlucky 13 & then we had a third sib slot open & both times it was filled it was a girl named 11)#(it was even our urls lol lvckyscvcn & unluckythirteen. those blogs are still up... memories.)#i'm going to get off my nostalgia horse or else these tags will go on forever lol
