Jack Skellington is the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town and the lead character in Tim Burton's stop-motion film The Nightmare Before Christmas, released in 1993. In the film he leads Halloween celebrations while searching for something more, a mix of charm, curiosity and gothic style that made him a lasting Halloween icon. Short voice clips of Jack have spread widely online as reaction sounds and meme audio, especially each October when creators revisit the film. This deadpan line endures because it sums up his undead identity in a single, instantly recognisable moment.
