What The Nightmare Before Christmas Voice Actors Look Like In Real Life

4. Mayor - Glen Shadix

In terms of screen-time, The Mayor may very well be one of the characters who makes the most of his minutes in The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Despite being a secondary character, The Mayor 's mercurial mood and booming voice make him one of the film's most loveable characters - and much of that is down to the man providing the voice.

The Mayor's voice is provided by Glen Shadix, who made his mark in another cult family horror film in Beetlejuice. Just five years previous, Shadix portrayed Otho in that 1988 Burton effort, where the actor's narcissistic interior designer, chemist and hair analyst, ahem, sees his suit turned into a much more summery outfit.

While Otho may portray a façade of being a jack of all trades, Shadix clearly walks the walk, adding Planet of The Apes to his CV before sadly passing away in 2010.
