Retail

Visually, the labs are marked by a large, forced perspective spherical structure, the sort whose crooked angular shape would be unrealistic at full scale. Shoppers entering through an earthbound vault door will discover a laboratory straight out of Universal's Frankenstein, filtered through Tim Burton's distinctive aesthetic. Every available surface is awash in bubbling beakers, whizzing gewgaws, and other bric-a-brac of a demented scientific mind. Dr. Finkelstein mostly allows his creation Sally to operate this space, so the merchandise reflects her stitching skills. This is Halloween Town's premiere clothing shop. Guests will find any and all Nightmare Before Christmas-themed apparel, more even than at an average Hot Topic, with cool new clothing always getting sewn together to celebrate the latest holiday!

Functionally, this is an active workshop! Guests are invited to join the monsters in making merry, scary merchandise! Much like a Build-a-Bear Workshop, the Scare-Bear Workshop provides several pre-fab toy parts which can be separately purchased and them assembled together. Create your very own bizarre toy monstrosity, and take home a part of Halloween Town which is truly your own.

Park guests will find the Witches' Shop to be a simple collectibles venue, one little larger than a basic merchandise cart. With its striped, mis-angled awning outside and its overturned coffins set about in the plaza serving as merchandise shelves, guests need not enter the building's interior - set underneath a rooftop shaped like a witch's hat, naturally - to fully enjoy this venue. There's more even than retail going on here, thanks to fun little interactive items like a floating broomstick or a caged shrieking cat.

Those celebrated trick-r-treaters Lock, Shock & Barrel make candy collecting their life's purpose. Their hideous treehouse is a cache of sweets & treats, available for purchase. Serving as Halloween Town's dedicated candy shoppe, the Trick-R-Treat Treehouse is a beacon of festive, playful, tantalizingly sweet confections. Aisles of candies adorn every crooked timber, from pre-packaged goodies to freshly-made specialties. Every item sold here is, unsurprisingly, themed-to-the-gills with Nightmare Before Christmas splendor. Cookies are decorated with characters' faces, there are bags of marshmallow Jack Skellington heads, nightmarish jelly beans, black-and-orange candy canes...our chocalatiers never stop inventing!

Christmas Town Workshop is a dedicated Christmas-themed store, set within a festive gingerbread warehouse. Thematically, it nicely ties into Father Christmas' similar shop over in Narnia. However, this Nightmare Before Christmas variant is more stylized, more playful, with its toys and decor realized in the expected Burtonesque style.
