Apologies, my friend -- but there's just so much to do!—Jack Skellington Busy Message
Jack Skellington is a character released with Halloween Event Update on 12th October 2016, and is a part of the Nightmare Before Christmas character collection.
About[]
Jack Skellington is the "Pumpkin King" of Halloween Town, and the protagonist of Tim Burton's 1993 stop-motion Disney film, The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Jack Skellington is the patron spirit of Halloween, portrayed as being on par with Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny within his own holiday. As a living skeleton, he is immortal and can remove parts of his body without harm, as is often demonstrated for comic relief. He is the most important of many Halloween spirits, with the implication that their job is to scare people in the real world on Halloween night, though all in innocent fun.
