The heated debate continues over 25 years after this iconic film was made; is The Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween movie or a Christmas movie. I stick to my guns in saying it’s both. 

Hear me out.

The dark tone and crazy creatures just scream Halloween. Plus, it was released in the month of October. Coincidence? Doubtful. Also, Disney’s Halloween Party is loaded with Nightmare Before Christmas merch and you can meet Jack and Sally during Halloween.

Is that Disney’s way of admitting that it’s a Halloween movie?

Then, there’s the Christmas theme throughout the film. Don’t you remember the entire premise? Plus the Disney owned channel, Freeform, shows this move during Christmas time and Halloween. I don’t remember meeting Jack and Sally at Disney’s Christmas party, though.

I think the best way to describe this film is by saying it’s Halloween meets Christmas. We don’t really need to fit it into a box, right?
