Jack Skellington Cookies (Easy and Fun to Make!)

With the beginning of fall around the corner, we get to start talking about Halloween, woo hoo!

If you are a fan of Halloween movies, then I’m sure The Nightmare Before Christmas by Tim Burton is probably high on your list. My kids were obsessed with the Halloween movie and watched it over and over!

The classic movie makes a fun theme for any Halloween party for adults or kids! The main character, Jack Skellington is the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town and is the patron spirit of Halloween.

There are many memorable characters in the fantasy animated movie such as his friend a rag doll named Sally, but we think Jack is the most famous and beloved!
