15+ Awesome Nightmare Before Christmas Tattoos

It’s that time of year, time that my favourite movie of all time is considered to be ‘normal’ to watch on repeat once again! I’ve had people ask me when the best time to watch Nightmare Before Christmas is – either Halloween or Christmas – and my answer is both! Today I’m having a ton of fun combining my love of Nightmare Before Christmas with my love of tattoos, sharing 15 different tattoos that were inspired by the movie.

I found these tattoos online after an extensive google search. It was difficult, trust me – you can’t imagine how hard it is on a person spending their whole morning googling through different, awesome, unique tattoos…. Life is a challenge, no?

These tattoos are amazingly creative – the incredible work of true artists. I highly respect the work of a talented artist and have been dreaming up my own Nightmare Before Christmas tattoo, so maybe these will provide the necessary inspiration!

Are you a fan of Nightmare Before Christmas? Which character is your favourite? Have you ever considered getting a movie-themed tattoo?

  1. So freakin cool!! I love The Nightmare Before Christmas! I tend to watch this more during the Halloween season. Idk, it just seems more Halloweenish to me. I’ve considered getting an Alice in Wonderland tattoo!

  2. Omg these are amazing! I don’t think I’d ever get a movie themed tattoo but I do have a book themed one and plan on getting more!

  3. Oh my gosh!
    These look incredible. I have no tattoos, but I’m looking into getting my first one. Starting off small, but these really do look amazing.
    They’re so creative.

    1. You should watch it, its so creative and impressive, especially if you get the extended version and see all the work they put into making it!

    1. Thank you! I am going to do a few more of these, but with the excitement that Halloween is coming this felt like the logical first tattoo roundup for the blog! Lol
