FAQs
Is The Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween or Christmas movie?

There’s lots to be said for watching it several times from Halloween to Christmas Eve, and it’s a particularly perfect November watch.

Tim Burton’s inspired and quirky festive movie was initially released under the more adult Touchstone Pictures banner because Disney worried it might be too dark for children. It didn’t take long for the PG film to capture kids' imagination, as much of the merchandise above shows.
