15. Jack Skellington 
Jack “The Pumpkin King” Skellington, king of Halloween Town, and its residents. He is from “The Nightmare Before Christmas”, created by Tim Burton. I like Jack because of his adventurous spirit. Although he is the ruler of Halloween Town, he can be pretty thick-headed, no pun intended. I also have a little bit of pitty for Jack, even though he means well, he manages to almost ruin Christmas. Jack has a ghost dog named Zero, with a bright glowing light on his nose.
“The Nightmare Before Christmas” is based of a poem that Tim Burton wrote. The poem is actually pretty short; it is amazing that a full motion picture was made from it. I also like “The Nightmare Before Christmas” for its originality. It is claymation, not all computerized like modern movies. Tim Burton was asked by Disney to make a sequel, but he refused. He wanted to keep the movie special, and not ruin it. Good Job Tim!
16. Nosferatu 
Nosferatu is probably the scariest movie monster to me. His dark, beady eyes, his long fingernails, his pointy ears, his shadow. I used to be terrified of him when I was little. I first saw him on an episode of “Spongebob Squarepants” called “The Graveyard Shift”. I have actually got to see his movie now, the whole thing is on YouTube. He is also known as Count Orlok. He has gotten two pictures on this post; you really have to see his shadow to get the full chill in your spine.
17. The Brave Little Toaster
I know, your probably wondering “Why is something so cute on a Halloween post?” Yes, the characters may seem cute, and yes, it is a Disney movie. Actually, this movie is pretty dark. For example, when the Toaster and his friends are in a junkyard, it has cars singing about their lives as they are being crushed by a compactor. This movie has to be seen before its darkness can be fully understood.
18. Casper 
Casper is an American classic! There have been many adaptations of him, from comics, to cartoons, to full-length movies. Casper is also one of the saddest cartoon character of all time. All he wants is a friend, but when he goes to greet someone he get the response “A G-G-G-G-GHOST!” In the picture, Casper befriends a fox and names him Ferdie. Soon after they become friends a hunter and his dogs kill Ferdie. Casper is heart broken, and burys him. As Casper mourns beside Ferdie’s grave, the ghost of a litte fox rises from it an nuzzles Casper. Also, on the funnier side, Bart and Lisa Simpson think that Casper is the ghost of Richie Rich. Hmmm, come to think of it, they do look similar!
Well, there’s part five! I will be making another Halloween heroes post soon, so don’t miss it!
