Oogie Boogie's Freaky Funhouse

Oogie Boogie's Freaky Funhouse was a live show that took place at Disney's Hollywood Studios during the Villains Unleashed event on August 23, 2014. The show was hosted by Oogie Boogie, the main antagonist of the 1993 stop-motion animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas, and featured various acts of circus and carnival performers, such as sword swallowing, crossbow tricks, fire dancing, and contortion. The show was intended to be a more adult-oriented and edgy entertainment option for the event, which celebrated 50 of Disney's villains.
==Background==
The show was held at the Theater of the Stars, which normally hosts Beauty and the Beast - Live on Stage. The theater was decorated with banners, posters, and props related to Oogie Boogie and his freaky funhouse. The show had four performances throughout the night, each lasting about 25 minutes. The show began with an introduction by Oogie Boogie, who welcomed the guests to his funhouse and introduced his freaky friends. 
The first act was a sword swallower named Lady Hellevi, who swallowed various blades and objects. The second act was a crossbow artist named Ben Blaque, who performed dangerous stunts with his weapon, such as shooting an apple off his assistant's head. The third act was a fire dancer named Ember, who performed a sensual and fiery routine with flaming props. The fourth act was a contortionist named Vita Radionova, who twisted her body into impossible shapes and positions. The show ended with a finale by Oogie Boogie, who thanked the guests for coming and invited them to join him in his lair.
==Reception==
The show received mixed reactions from the guests and critics. Some praised the show for being different from the usual Disney entertainment and offering something for the adult audience. Others criticized the show for being too risqué, inappropriate, or out of place for a Disney park. Some also complained about the long lines and crowds for the event, which made it difficult to see the show or other attractions. The show was never repeated after the Villains Unleashed event and remains a one-time experience for those who attended it.
