Halloween Town is one of my favorite worlds in Kingdom Hearts, but I wanted to add a twist to this prompt and include my favorite Disneyland Ride, the Haunted Mansion! 🕸️๋࣭ ⭑

Every Halloween/Christmas, the Disneyland version gets a Nightmare Before Christmas overlay that has these adorably stupid plants that sing, so I thought it'd be funny if Xigbar tried to 'gift' Xana a bouquet of them just to freak her out. Who says romance is dead?

Xana's outfit is inspired by the Beating Heart Bride from the ride, while Xigbar is just a generic vampire (I'm unoriginal lol). And of course I had to include the evil toys since the duck is my favorite~

Since I'm extra, here's a timelapse of the art piece with some of my original music playing in the background-- 🎶"Shadows of Our Broken Selves" 🎶

Love is a wretched thing and marriage is forever.

I’m back and forth with the return of the heart beat bride in Disneyland, now that I’ve actually seen her in person. I think it’s really cool, conceptually and close to being really ethereal and mysterious— hearing her heart beat etc.

However she has the same problem as Disney worlds Hat box (I haven’t been back to see him) and the… new pirate… she’s slightly too loud and way too bright. They keep doing the mannequin + projection thing, she’s about 80% screen!!! + it’s so half assed as the entire rest of the attic is all still Constance, just the husband’s disappear instead of lose their heads now…

Multiple dead husbands and a tragic bride? Re-heating Mélanie’s Nachos 🙄 bring back the whole- died right before her true wedding or husband disappears thing idk.

She does make a GREAT shirt though, I’m sort of mad I didn’t get it… like she’d be so cool if modern Disney wasn’t a screen addict and could f*king commit + think through if they’re gonna change something.
