The Nightmare Before Christmas movie is filled with skeletons, handmade creatures, and even the boogeyman but if this is all based on after their deaths then they must have been human at some point. This leads us to the question how did they die?

Jack Skellington: Burned                                                                                                                                                It is believed that Jack was burned to death because he is all bones and once a body catches fire the skin burns off leaving just bones.

Sally: Amputated                                                                                                                                                                It is obvious Sally was amputated or dismembered due to all the stitches on her arms and legs. The stitches are constantly falling off and she is always trying to sew herself back together.

Dr. Finklestien: Poisoned                                                                                                                                                 It is shown that he is always getting poisoned by Sally throughout the movie so the most reasonable explanation is that Sally must have poisoned him before she died of amputation.

Zero: Electrocution                                                                                                                                                   During electrocution is said that your soul/spirit leaves your body so Zero's spirit must have escaped his body during electrocution and became the ghost we know and love.

Oogie Boogie Man: Skinned                                                                                                                                           It is a good theory that the Oogie Boogie Man was skinned alive and the body was left to rot outside for a period of time. This is a good reasoning as to why his insides are covered in bugs and hes sewn together in desperate attempts at a new body.

Mayor: Broken Neck                                                                                                                                                           The death of a broken neck goes to explain why the Mayor cannot turn his head like everyone else can. It's also said that he might have been bipolar in his life and that's why he was given two faces.
