To capture the essence of Jack Skellington’s version of Christmas, I wanted to make sure we had a scene depicting the various Halloween-themed decorations.

For the backdrop, I re-constructed a rolling platform which I have used for previous Halloween houses.

Then, on that structure, I attached cardboard painted to look like wallpaper and wall borders (top and bottom). The crew at Options for All created the wall paper pattern (see post here).

I then added our artificial Christmas tree to the base.

And attached our Christmas present eating snake to it.

Then, I hung the hungry wreath on the wall and extended his vine tentacles out toward the side.
