Barrel from The Nightmare Before Christmas

Barrel, voiced by Danny Elfman, is part of the trio of antagonistic Trick or Treaters in the 1993 movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, along with Lock and Shock.

He is presumably the youngest out of the group, and has pale blueish tinted skin, wide eyes with black and purple-red smearing around them surrounding black pupils, turquoise lips, and slicked back wavy green hair.

Barrel wears a costume similar in build to Lock’s, with it essentially being pajamas, but his are greyish or purple (depending on the version) with white stand-out bone detailing on both the shirt and pants. In line with the other two, he also has a trick or treating mask, with his being a white skeleton face that mimics his own.

Shock from The Nightmare Before Christmas

Shock, voiced by Catherine O’Hara, is part of the trio of antagonistic Trick or Treaters in the 1993 movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, along with Lock and Barrel.

She has pale green tinted skin, black eyes, stringy and curly deep turquoise hair with the same color around her eyes, and lighter turquoise on her lips.

Shock has a typical sort of witch costume, with a dusty purple hat with a ribbon, a dress of about the same color depending on the version (Kingdom Hearts has a lighter pinkish dress instead) with a darker purple trim around the collar, hem, and sleeves, and wears a green witch mask to go with her costume.

She has what appears to be grey gloves on, and what looks like black thigh high boots (you can probably go with just regular witch boots instead, with the tights listed above, and have the same effect).

Lock from The Nightmare Before Christmas

Lock, voiced by Paul Reubens, is part of the trio of antagonistic Trick or Treaters in the 1993 movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, along with Shock and Barrel.

He has pale off-white skin, yellow sclera eyes with black pupils, red hair slicked back and styled up into devil horns at his forehead, and his teeth are sharp even outside of the mask.

Lock has turquoise blue lips, eyes shaded with red and purple on each lid, he wears a long sleeved red pajama set, matching red pointed devil shoes, has either yellowed hands or gloves, and a red, presumably real, devils tail. He also has a matching stylized devil mask that mimics his face and head shape, to match the other two’s themed masks.
