This is Halloween! This is...Christmas? No matter the holiday with which you associate this gem, there is no denying that is continues to age like a fine wine with audiences all over. On this final edition of Cracking the Vault 2021, we dive into the tedious (and mind-boggling) process of stop-motion animation, the journey from a 3-page poem to the big screen, and how Pee Wee Herman is responsible for Tim Burton and Danny Elfman as we know them today! Find Cracking the Vault on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram @CrackingtheVault_Podcast, and give us a follow and a review to leave your thoughts on Apple Podcasts! HUGE shout out to the multi-talented composer Tyler Griffin for the FANTASMIC opening jingle. Find out more about his musical genius at TylerAGriffin.com
