Coming Soon is teaming with Walt Disney Pictures to bring the “Create Your Own Character Fan Art Contest.” The challenge calls for contestants to develop an original character that would fit within the world of The Nightmare Before Christmas. Prizes include a one-sheet signed by the filmmakers, a 6-foot tall Jack Skellington theater standee, a 2-Disc Special Edition soundtrack and the original DVD. All entries for the contest must be received by October 31st.

[Update] Latino Review is also hosting “Create Your Own Character Fan Art Contest” to promote The Nightmare Before Christmas. The same rules and prizes found at Coming Soon‘s version of the competition apply at the latter site as well.
