Set Facts
- The set was originally fan created and is based on "The Nightmare Before Christmas", a stop-motion animated musical film released in 1993 and produced by Tim Burton. The movie tells the story of Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, who stumbles upon Christmas Town and becomes obsessed with bringing Christmas to his own spooky world. However, his attempt to take over Christmas leads to chaotic results. It has since become a cult classic, especially during the Halloween and Christmas seasons.
- The Nightmare Before Christmas was designed by LEGO designer Cesar Soares.

The Nightmare Before Christmas Reviews
Jays Brick Blog
“The LEGO Nightmare Before Christmas set includes eight beloved Disney characters: Jack Skellington, Sally, Santa Claus, Lock, Shock, Barrel, Zero the dog, and a two-faced brick-built figure of The Mayor. Comparing it to the original Ideas submission by Simon Scott, you can... More clearly see that LEGO have scaled down and dramatically simplified the design, which is going to disappoint some of the fans that voted for this particular design.”
“Clocking in at 2,193 pieces, the set contains a trio of builds inspired by Halloween Town: the Town Hall, Jack’s house, and of course, the iconic Spiral Hill, complete with the moon floating perfectly in the background. The shapes of the builds really do a lot to capture the... More kooky, stylized designs of the buildings from the 1993 movie—even Spiral Hill is done with some clever techniques to create its unique curvature in Lego.”
