50 Nightmare Before Christmas Quotes For Your Spooky Halloween Captions

Growing up watching The Nightmare Before Christmas, I always wished there was a real Halloweentown with Jack Skellington, Sally, and Zero, the ghost dog. Even though I haven't stumbled upon it (yet), I do get to revisit the town of Halloween every year by watching the Tim Burton classic. If this is one of your go-to fall films, you probably know every lyric and quote by heart. You could even use some of the Nightmare Before Christmas quotes for Instagram captions this season.

A lot of people go back and forth on whether this movie is meant to be watched during Halloween or Christmastime. To me, it's a keep-on-repeat-all-holiday-season-long kind of movie, but there's no denying the Nightmare Before Christmas hype starts in the fall. That's why these The Nightmare Before Christmas quotes are perfect for all of your fall outing pics. You could use the wise words of the Pumpkin King himself to accompany your pumpkin patch photos. Also, for the Jack to your Sally, your selfies with boo will be made even sweeter with a line from the film.

Whatever you have planned, you don't want to stop the fun for any Oogie Boogie by pausing to come up with your own caption. Just use one great quote from the film, and you'll be well on your way. This is Halloween, after all, and you're ready to make a scene on the 'gram. Below, find all the spooky Nightmare Before Christmas quotes for your Halloween pics. Happy haunting, friends.
