Tim Burton's Haunting Short 'Vincent' On Laughing Squid (VIDEO)

(From: Laughing Squid)

In 1982, over a decade before A Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton made the stop-motion animated short "Vincent," shown on San Francisco-based blog Laughing Squid. The haunting, yet sweet, story is about Vincent Malloy, a young boy with a twisted imagination, an obsession with Edgar Allen Poe and a desire to be like Vincent Price (who narrates the film). Vincent imagines turning his aunt into wax, his dog into a zombie and mourns the loss of his fictional wife. It's probably best not to watch this before bedtime.
