This Is Halloween is the opening number from The Nightmare Before Christmas, the 1993 stop-motion film directed by Henry Selick and produced by Tim Burton, with music by Danny Elfman. Sung by the residents of Halloween Town as they introduce themselves, it quickly became the film's signature song and a seasonal anthem far beyond the movie itself. Each October it resurfaces in costume videos, party playlists, haunted attractions and social media edits, because its instantly recognisable chorus works as shorthand for Halloween itself.

The iconic This Is Halloween song intro from The Nightmare Before Christmas, used for fun spooky edits, October videos and creepy meme moments.
This clip captures the opening chorus of This Is Halloween, the show-stopping ensemble number that introduces Halloween Town in Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. A large, theatrical choir sings the title phrase over a swirling, spooky orchestra of strings, brass and tolling bells, building from a mischievous whisper to a full, carnival-like roar. It sounds instantly festive and faintly menacing at the same time, like a haunted parade marching straight toward the listener. Hearing it immediately sets a Halloween mood, signalling tricks, treats and something delightfully creepy is about to happen.
