The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

A single visit to Halloween Town might reveal a bunch of monsters capable of chills and thrills, but each character in Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas has their own unique personality traits that are easy to spot. Fans choose their favorite characters, from idealistic Jack to pragmatic Sally, based not only on their cool stop-motion effects, but on their attitudes and actions.

While it’s highly unlikely that the singers of “This Is Halloween” have ever taken the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator® test, we think their personalities speak pretty clearly for themselves. It’s fun to see which Type each character is and whether or not we match with Oogie Boogie and the gang.

10 Jack Skellington: ENTP

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Jack hates the tried-and-true methods of the way things are done and will always come up with new ways to do his job, even when he ultimately decides that Halloween and not Christmas is the way to go. The great debate on whether the movie is best seen at Halloween or Christmastime is still answered, of course, with a simple, one-word answer: both!

9 Mayor Of Halloween Town: ESFJ

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

The mayor is loyal and warm to the people of his town, and losing Jack truly shatters him. He anticipates the needs of his town and works diligently to provide for them. He also loves to be praised for his hard work and preens when he’s recognized.

8 Santa Clause: INFJ

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Santa’s naughty list even confirms this, as an INFJ has no time for anyone who doesn’t also seek meaning and positive movement in the world. Santa’s values are firm and he knows exactly what he wants to do to make his vision come to life in the world.

7 Oogie Boogie: ENTJ

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Decisive and hungry for the opportunity to be in charge, Oogie Boogie thinks the world he’s in has a lot of issues he’d like to fix, and that his methods are the best to get the job done. He’s smart, well-informed and always knows what’s happening, not because he’s so curious but because he needs all of the information possible for his plans.

6 Dr. Finkelstein: INTJ

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Introverted Finkelstein prefers to work alone, manufacturing companions who are designed only as his helpers and companions, and like other INTJs, he isn’t a lover of surprises. He likes to have a strategy and for his life to follow that plan.

5 Lock: ESTP

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Freedom is another quality that an ESTP demands, and working as one of Oogie’s Boys gives Lock quite a bit of it. He’s energetic and loves nothing more than causing mischief with his two best friends, much like other ESTPs like being active with their friends. Lock also has the best style of the trio, which is a signature ESTP quality.

4 Barrel: ENTP

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Barrel loves the idea of being rewarded for his efforts and being in the spotlight motivates him to succeed at his mission to not only kidnap “Mr. Sandy Claws,” but to deliver him to Oogie Boogie.

3 Zero: ISFP

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

ISFPs like Zero enjoy their own space, which is why the dog still has his own outdoor house despite being Jack’s companion. Conflict and disagreement make the pup sad, which is why he’s all about being supportive and filling in whenever needed, even if it’s to light Jack’s sleigh during an ill-advised plan to make Christmas.

2 Shock: ENFJ

The MyersBriggs® Types Of The Nightmare Before Christmas Characters

Shock is loyal to Oogie Boogie as well as her companions, and she’s dedicated to ensuring that Oogie’s Boys get their job done. While she’s not an official leader of the group, she often acts as one.

1 Sally: ISFJ

Kind-hearted and warm, Sally not only cares about how others feel but notices the tiny details that others might miss. Sally’s awareness makes her a powerful ally, someone Jack should have listened to before his lament. Sally does crave harmony in her life and wants to prevent chaos however possible.
