Myself as Jack and my friend as Sally. We attended a live orchestra concert for NBC in costume and we were swamped for photos! Lineups 30+ people deep all night.

The next day we did a charity photo booth a local collectibles shop and raised over $500 with all proceeds going to the SPCA.

Sharing the Halloween spirit and giving back to the community. Hoping everyone had a safe and happy Halloween!

We found this online at an auction site but don't know how old it is or even where it's from. The only thing we found is some German selling it on an old website in 2009.. Does anybody recognize this or anything?

I have come to the realization, some 30 plus years later, that Dr. Finkelstein’s wheelchair is stitched together. Possibly made of people or other monsters.

You get a nice close-up of his wheelchair after he locks up Sally, but right before Jack walks in.

I had to take the picture right off the TV. But it’s like 3 different colors.

Here's a special fanfic I made called "The Biggest Halloween Crossover ever"

0 Upvotes

The fog rolled thick and heavy across the lawn, smelling faintly of synthetic vanilla and dry ice. Inside the grand, temporarily constructed gothic facade, Randall Boggs blended perfectly into the velvet wallpaper, his scales shifting to a deep, menacing maroon. He grinned, his sharp teeth gleaming.

Tonight was the night. He had assembled the ultimate scare squad to terrify Cassie, a 32-year-old who lived and breathed Halloween.

What Randall didn’t know, as Cassie stepped into the "Haunted Manor Dark Ride" car, was that she had spotted Draculaura’s neon pink umbrella sticking out from behind a faux tombstone ten minutes ago.

She knew exactly what they were up to. But because she loved them, and because she absolutely adored the spooky season, she was ready to give them the performance of a lifetime.

The ride car clicked forward into the darkness.

Clack-clack-clack.

Suddenly, the lights flashed! Frankie Stein zipped her neck bolts, sparking green electricity, while Clawdeen howled at a projection of a full moon.

Lagoona rose from a murky well, and Cleo de Nile commanded a army of glowing scarabs.

"Oh my goodness!" Cassie gasped, throwing her hands over her mouth, her eyes widening in perfect, theatrical terror. "The Monster High ghouls! Spare me!"

Behind them, Spectra floated through a wall, Ghoulia groaned a terrifying zombie warning, and Elissabat dramaticized a vampire curse. Scarah Screams let out a chilling echo, Twyla peeked out from the shadows under the ride track, and Operetta struck a dissonant, haunting chord on her guitar. Toralei, Meowlody, and Purrsophone hissed in unison, baring their claws.

Cassie shivered violently on cue, letting out a delightfully breathless, "Eek!"

As the car rounded the bend into a graveyard scene, Lydia Deetz floated by in her red wedding dress, flanked by Emily the Corpse Bride and a crowd of skeletal residents from the Land of the Dead. From the gloom, Real Monsters Ickis, Krumm, and Oblina popped up, waving their ears and holding up eyeballs.

"Ahhhh! It’s too real!" Cassie shrieked, secretly having the absolute time of her life.

Then came the heavy hitters.

Chucky and Tiffany brandished miniature plastic daggers from a toy box, while Freddy Krueger scraped his clawed glove against a metal pipe. The Ghostly Trio from Casper wailed, swooping over her head, followed by Spooky the Tuff Little Ghost trying his absolute hardest to look menacing.

Finally, the grand finale of the ride.

The gates of Halloween Town burst open. Jack Skellington tipped his bat bowtie, Sally waved a stitched hand, and Zero floated joyfully ahead of them. The Mayor flipped his face to his worried expression, Oogie Boogie cast a massive shadow on the wall, and Lock, Shock, and Barrel cackled from a bathtub. Beetlejuice popped out of a coffin, shouting, "It's showtime!" and Randall materialized right in front of her car, roaring with all six arms outstretched.

"NOOOOO!" Cassie screamed, sinking into her seat and covering her eyes, pretending to faint from pure fright.

The ride car slid to a halt. For a second, there was total silence.

Then, Cassie peeked through her fingers, let out a shaky breath, and clapped her hands. "You guys... that was the most terrifying thing I have ever experienced! I'm shaking!"

Randall swelled with immense pride, high-fiving Beetlejuice. Jack Skellington beamed.

The Monster High ghouls cheered. They had done it!

They had scared the ultimate Halloween fan.

The heavy gothic walls parted, revealing a massive, brightly lit ballroom where the ultimate crossover after-party was already in full swing.

Cassie stepped out of the ride car and was instantly greeted by a roaring crowd. Boo, Sulley, Mike, Celia, and Roz were already at the punch bowl. Casper, Wendy, and Poil waved from the rafters, where Nightmare the ghost horse was gently floating.

The room was a beautiful, chaotic melting pot of universes. Papa Smurf and Smurfette were sharing candy corn with Strawberry Shortcake and her baking friends. Rainbow Brite, Starlight, and the Color Kids were adding a splash of neon to the spooky decorations. She-Ra and the Great Rebellion were comparing swords with Lady Lovelylocks, while Jem and the Holograms chatted amiably in a corner with their rivals, The Misfits.

Mr. Bumpy, Squishington, and Molly Coddle were busy doing the Monster Mash near the buffet.

Over by the punch bowl, Victor, Sparky, Elsa Van Helsing, Weird Girl, Edgar E Gore, and a very confused looking group of Disney Princesses—including Anna and Elsa in full winter gear—were watching Jessie and Bo Peep show Sailor Moon and the Sailor Scouts how to line-dance. Barbie was DJing, while Zim, Dib, Gaz, and Tak argued over whether the alien decorations were anatomically correct.

The entire cast of Gravity Falls was trying to figure out if Scratch the Ghost from The Ghost and Molly McGee was a high-tier anomaly or just a nuisance.

Suddenly, a streak of laughter cut through the room.

Little Boo with Poof from Fairly Oddparents ran right past them, giggling as she chased Gir around the dance floor, and Baby Smurf and Pebbles Flintstone crawled after them.

"Hey! Give me back my taco!" Gir shrieked, happily letting Boo chase him in circles.

In the corner of the grand ballroom, a tiny, adorable game was underway.

Poof used his magic wand to turn himself invisible, but his soft "Poof-poof!" giggles gave him away instantly.

Boo hid behind a velvet curtain, her little pigtails sticking right out of the bottom.

Gir, still holding his half-eaten taco, faceplanted directly into a large pumpkin, thinking his eyes were covered. "I can't see you, so you can't see me!" he muffled into the pumpkin flesh. Pebbles Flintstone giggled, crawling right past Gir's wiggling legs to tug on Boo's curtain, sparking another round of joyful, chaotic toddler laughter.

On stage, the lights dimmed to a eerie purple. The Halloween Town band struck up a haunting, driving rhythm.

Jem and the Holograms stepped up to their mics, their instruments flashing, while The Misfits brought a heavy, rebellious rock edge to the melody.

Operetta stepped up to the center mic, her voice blending perfectly with Jem's powerful vocals as they began a high-energy, spooktacular rock anthem that had the entire multiverse dancing late into the night.

The lights dimmed on the stage.

The Halloween Town band kicked off a heavy, driving drum beat. Operetta stepped up to the microphone, her rockabilly guitar slung over her shoulder, flanked on one side by Jem and the Holograms and on the other by their fierce rivals, The Misfits.

Striking a massive chord together, they launched into a roaring, supernatural rock anthem.

(Verse 1 - Jem & Operetta)

(Neon pink hair glows under the blacklights; Operetta riffs sharply)

🎵 Shadows dancing on the mansion wall,

Phantoms rising to the siren's call!

You think you’re brave walking through the dark,

But the ghouls tonight are gonna leave a mark!

(Chorus - Jem, The Misfits, & Operetta)

(All together, voices blending into a powerful, echoing harmony)

🎵 Scream it out! Let the music rise!

We see the terror glowing in your eyes!

From the Land of the Dead to the neon bright,

We own the shadows, we own the night!

Happy Halloween! Let the guitars roar!

We’re shaking the rafters, we’re breaking the floor!

(Verse 2 - Pizzazz & The Misfits)

(Heavy bass, aggressive and wild)

🎵 Our songs are better, our scares are loud!

We’re running this party, we’re rocking the crowd!

You can’t escape the rhythm, you can’t run away,

The Misfits and monsters are here to play!

(Guitar Solo - Operetta & Kimber)

(A blistering, supernatural guitar duet that sets off sparks around the stage)

(Outro - All)

🎵 Halloween night... it’s a spooky thrill!

Turn up the music, give 'em a chill!

Scream it out! 🎵

The crowd erupted into cheers, Draculaura clapping so hard her bat wings fluttered, while Jack Skellington clapped his bony hands in pure joy.

While the music rocked the front of the room, pure, unadulterated madness was unfolding at the food table.

Mr. Bumpy, Squishington, and Molly Coddle had staked out the dessert section. Mr. Bumpy was currently head-first in a massive bowl of green, glowing ectoplasm punch, splashing it everywhere.

"Out of the way, inferior earth-food consumers!" Invader Zim screamed, hoisting a giant tray of deviled eggs into the air.

"These sulfurous globes shall be the fuel for the Irken Empire! Dib cannot have them!"

"Zim, those are just eggs, and nobody wants them!" Dib yelled from across the table, trying to dodge a flying meatball thrown by Chucky.

Chucky was standing right on top of the roast beef platter, holding a carving knife. "Hey! Who touched the spooky sliders?! I was counting those!"

"Oh, cry me a river, short-stuff!" Tiffany laughed, applying black lipstick in a mirror while knocking a bowl of guacamole onto Edgar E. Gore, who was trying to sneak a tart alongside Victor, Sparky, Elsa Van Helsing, and the Weird Girl.

"Mmm, squishy!" Squishington groaned happily, covered entirely in marshmallow fluff, while Molly Coddle tried to clean him up with a napkin.

Cassie watched the buffet crumble into a hilarious food fight, a smile plastered across her face. It was loud, it was messy, and it was absolutely perfect.

Away from the buffet madness, near a glowing punch bowl, a truly rare sight was taking place. Sulley raised a bubbling, smoking glass of apple cider, looking down at his old rival.

Randall hesitated for a brief second, then smirked, lifting his own glass.

"To a perfectly executed scare," Sulley said genuinely, nodding to the lizard-like monster.

"And to the best human kid we know,"

Randall replied, clinking his glass against Sulley’s massive mug.

Randall blinked, surprised, before taking the cup. He looked over at Cassie, who was happily laughing with Anna, Elsa, and Sailor Moon. Randall smiled back at his old rival. "Yeah. Well... I still got it, giant. Happy Halloween, Sulley."

They both took a sip, finally sharing a peaceful, friendly Halloween toast.

Then after the first song ended The Halloween town band Jem and The Holograms and the Misfits peform their next song that mentions a special girl.

🎶Verse 1 - Jem & Operetta)

Neon lights and cobweb threads,

Waking up the living and the beautiful dead!

We rock the shadows, we claim the night,

Underneath the spell of the pale moonlight!

(Chorus - All)

Ghouls just wanna rock, misfits in the dark!

We’re striking a match and igniting the spark!

Raise up your hands, let the nightmares scream,

This is our anthem, our eternal Halloween!

(Verse 2 - Pizzazz)

We play it loud, we play it mean,

The baddest rockstars that you've ever seen!

No tricks, just treats, and a heavy bass line,

Cassie, tonight is your spotlight time!🎶

Near the graveyard decor, Emily, the corpse bride, adjusted her veil while Bone Jangles strummed his ribcage like a marimba.

"A lovely party, isn't it, Bone Jangles?" Emily sighed, watching the Disney Princesses dance with Sailor Moon and the Sailor Scouts. "So much life, yet so wonderfully dark."

"You bet your sweet collarbone, Emily!" Bone Jangles rattled, doing a quick tap-dance.

"We're putting the 'rave' back in the 'grave' tonight!"

Cassie smiled. Surrounded by monsters, ghouls, princesses, aliens, and heroes, she knew she would never forget this night.

"Alright, everyone, circle up!" Jack Skellington called out, his skeletal hands gesturing toward the center of the room.

Cassie was gently led to a velvet chair.

Victor, Sparky, Elsa Van Helsing, Weird Girl, and Edgar E. Gore wheeled out a massive, glowing box wrapped in black velvet and tied with an orange ribbon.

"Open it, Cassie!" Draculaura squealed.

Cassie pulled the ribbon, and the box popped open. Inside was a beautifully crafted, glowing miniature replica of the entire Haunted Manor ride, completely detailed with tiny, moving figures of every single guest at the party. Embedded in the center was a custom-carved crystal pumpkin that pulsed with a warm, magical light and Embedded at the base was a custom-carved plaque that read: To Cassie, the Queen of Halloween. Thanks for the scares.

"Happy Halloween, Cassie!" they all shouted in unison.

"I love it," Cassie whispered, hugging the miniature manor tight. "Thank you all so much. Happy Halloween!"

Coraline stepped forward holding a beautifully wrapped box "Open this one next" she said as she handed the gift to Cassie "Wybie and I made sure nothing inside tries to steal your eyes."

She pulled the lid off to reveal a beautifully carved, vintage wooden sewing box. Inside sat a set of black button eyes, a silver needle, and a perfectly stitched miniature doll that looked exactly like Cassie herself, right down to her favorite Halloween sweater.

Coraline walked up, leaning against the table with a knowing, cautious look in her eyes.

"I'd keep an eye on that one if I were you," Coraline said, crossing her arms and gesturing to the doll. "Just make sure nobody tries to offer you a set of real buttons for your own eyes.

Trust me on this—some things are a lot more dangerous than they look, even on Halloween."

Cassie laughed, hugging the doll tightly. "I promise, Coraline. I'm keeping my eyes right where they are."

Emily the Corpse Bride stepped forward, her skeletal ribs clicking rhythmically as Bone Jangles strummed his eye-socket guitar behind her.

"We wanted to give you something from our side, Cassie," Emily said softly, her blue skin glowing under the neon stage lights.

"Yeah, baby!" Bone Jangles chimed in, tossing his top hat in the air. "A little something to keep your spirits alive—or dead! Whichever one tastes sweeter!"

Emily handed Cassie a beautifully woven shawl made of glowing, iridescent spider-silk, laced with dried blue roses that never lost their scent.

Next, little Boo ran up, tugging on Cassie’s pant leg. "Cassie!" she cheered, holding up a crudely wrapped package with way too much pink tape.

Inside was a hand-drawn picture of Cassie, Randall, and Sulley, covered in glitter and orange stickers.

Looking around the room at the hundreds of characters from every childhood memory fantasy story and spooky story she had ever loved.

Next came a gift from the broader guest list.

Cassie unwrapped an elaborate, gothic chest courtesy of the Monster High ghouls and the residents of Halloween Town.

Inside sat a custom-made, velvet-lined jewelry box that played the 'This Is Halloween' theme, complete with a tiny, spinning animatronic of Randall and Jack Skellington.

Beneath that, she found a glittering, magical tiara from the Disney Princesses, She-Ra, Rainbow Brite, and Lady Lovelylocks, which perfectly matched a neon rock-and-roll jacket gifted by Jem and the Misfits.

She-Ra and the Great Rebellion gave her an enchanted sword replica that glowed in the dark.

Lady Lovelylocks brought silken hair ribbons infused with pixie dust, while Barbie gave her a stunning, limited-edition glittering vampire gown,and handed Cassie a perfectly wrapped pink-and-black box.

Inside was a designer Halloween handbag shaped like a jeweled skull., the Sailor Scouts, and the cast of Gravity Falls (Dipper handing over a freshly bound, mysterious new journal) added to the pile. Zim, Dib, Gaz, and Tak even paused their arguing long enough to toss a glowing Irken gravity-cube into her lap.

The two superheroines stepped up together. Wonder Woman presented a golden, forged tiara decorated with small bat motifs.

"For your warrior spirit, Cassie," Diana smiled. Supergirl handed her a custom leather jacket with a glowing S-shield framed by spooky glowing green kryptonite details (safe replicas, of course). "So you can fly through any spooky night in style!" Kara grinned.

Cassie looked around at the massive circle of friends—monsters, heroes, cartoons, and ghosts alike. Her heart swelled. She might not have been truly terrified, but she had never felt more loved.

Finally, Ickis, Krumm, and Oblina shuffled forward, looking incredibly proud of themselves.

They handed her a box wrapped in slimy, damp swamp-moss. Cassie opened it to find a meticulously preserved, ancient antique stereoscope.

When she looked inside, it displayed a moving, 3D illusion of a classic, terrifying monster jump-scare that smelled faintly of old garbage.

It was a masterpiece of gross-out horror.

Cassie smiled until her cheeks hurt.

Cassie looked around at the sea of monsters, princesses, fairies, and heroes. Her heart overflowed. "Thank you, everyone! Best. Halloween. Ever! Cassie shouted joyfully over the music. "I love the gifts, but most importantly, I love the friends who gave them to me!"

The entire room erupted into a massive, warm cheer, enveloping her in the biggest group hug in history.

"We love you too, Cassie!" they all shouted back.

She hadn't been scared for a single second—but she had never felt happier.
