69 Jack Skellington, Disney

Jack Skellington

Day of the Dead



 Is from the stop motion movie The Nightmare Before christmas. The story is about Jack and his plans to celebrate Yule in Halloween town. This version is decorated like a candy skull.





  Jack Skellington is the 69th figure in the Funko vinyl pop Disney line. This figure is titled Day of the Dead Jack Skellington on the back of the box.




This figure is obviously Jack Skellington and the candy skull designs are easily noticed.




Beautiful candy skull designs adorn Jacks head. His mouth and nose holes are molded in but his eyes are painted on.




He wears his striped suit.




It has the same nice tail design.





He is in the same pose and has the same body sculpt as Jack Skellington 15.





Candy mobile anyone?

The Day of the Dead:

 The day of the dead is a holiday celebrated throughout Mexico and around the world in other cultures. The holiday focuses on gatherings to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. The celebration takes place on October 31, November 1 and November 2 in Mexico. The holiday is very similar to the pagan Halloween or Samhain celebrated on 31 October – 1 November in the Northern Hemisphere and 30 April – 1 May in the Southern Hemisphere.
Many southern hemisphere pagans usually incorporate it into their Samhain celebrations in April-May.

Though it is becoming popular as the shops and media try to enforce celebrating Halloween at the wrong time of year in Australia, for Pagans to celebrate The Day of the Dead in October-November. As pagans are known for their acceptance of others ignorance, most people celebrating Halloween at the wrong time are not even aware it is a seasonal holy day and how offense they are being celebrating it on Beltane.
