"The sound of rolling dice, to me, is music in the air, 'cause I'm a gamblin' Boogie Man, although I don't play fair! It's much more fun, I must confess, with lives on the line! Not mine, of course, but yours, old boy! Now that'd be just fine!"
- Oogie Boogie
Oogie Boogie is one of the inhabitants of Halloween Town in Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Oogie Boogie is a boogeyman, a "mythical creature used by adults to frighten children into good behavior." He resembles a large burlap potato sack; on the inside, he is a colony of bugs. He lives in an underground lair full of torture devices. Unlike the other inhabitants of Halloween Town, Oogie Boogie is truly evil.
