Welcome to the world of your most fantastic nightmares! Tim Burtons haunting holiday classic, The Nightmare Before Christmas, comes to life in frightfully good detail. Determined to play the part of "Sandy Claws" for the next Christmas, Jack Skellington dons a red suit and a beard and sets off into the night with a bag full of snakes, spiders and all manner of other ghoulish gifts. After creating Sally, the wheelchair-bound Dr. Finkelstein holds a confab with the black cat about his next mad invention. About Us: For 40 years, Department 56 has been creating holiday traditions passed down from generation to generation. The excitement of the holiday season comes home with intricately detailed villages from settings that inspire the imagination. Stroll through a small American town, enjoy a walk with Charles Dickens, or visit Santa in the North Pole. Our ornaments and figurines create even more opportunities to spread good wishes during the happiest time of the year.
