* DeletedScene:
** One deleted scene had Jack performing scientific experiments to fully understand what Christmas is.
** Another involved Lock, Shock, and Barrel venturing down to Oogie's lair to watch him while hearing The Mayor's message about Jack's presumed death and sang about it. Jack would later climb down the same passage and scare the trio away, which also explains how they knew he was alive when they brought The Mayor during the ending.



** Weirdest of all, the movie almost ''didn't'' get the Spiral Hill which codified GothSpirals! On the DVD commentary, Henry indicated that Tim was unsure about the hill because of his mandate that "magic does not exist in Halloween Town." (Specifically, the unwinding part seemed like magic.) Selick only changed his mind by saying, "[[SureLetsGoWithThat All right, then, it's a mechanical hill]]."
*** He used this same trick to get Lock, Shock, and Barrel's bathtub worked in, by adding a crank in the back and calling it mechanical.

** The poem in the opening narrative was recited by Edward Ivory, who also played the voice of Sandy Claws. An earlier recording (which is available on the original soundtrack) was several lines longer and read by Creator/PatrickStewart. Hear it in all its glory [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTJaqR7dedg&index=2&list=PLBAFD34845E5AE435 here.]]
*** Stewart also provided a coda that wasn't used, where it was revealed that the narrator was in fact Sandy Claus himself, and had visited Jack years later, having "grown quite fond of that skeleton man". It is also revealed that Jack had [[BabiesEverAfter several baby skeletons running around]] (presumably with Sally). This verse is also available on the original soundtrack, and can be heard [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udDDa1aAw_o&list=PLBAFD34845E5AE435#t=29 here.]]
