This Jack Skellington Popcorn Bucket Is Delightfully Spooky


I hope everyone is having a great Halloween. I wanted to share with you a fun popcorn bucket that my sister bought at the Magic Kingdom during our recent trip to Disney World. This year, they offered a Jack Skellington coffin full of popcorn for $12.99. We love the Nightmare Before Christmas, so my sister had to have one of these coffins. The coffin is 9" tall with Jack in silent repose on the top. 


The sides say Jack Skellington RIP and the handle is connected at each end. There are tiny skulls in each corner and an image of Jack's head toward the top. There are also Nightmare Before Christmas style swirls around each side.


The top is hinged on one side, which was good, because they over-filled the box with popcorn and it wouldn't close. Inside, there's a vampire teddy bear from the movie, reaching out from the bottom. When we purchased the box, the cast member selling the popcorn thought it was a vampire Mickey.


The most interesting part of the coffin, is the information embossed into the outside of the bottom. The coffin was created for the Haunted Mansion Holiday at Disneyland and was supposed to be sold exclusively at that park. I don't know how it ended up at Disney World, but I'm not complaining.
