How OLD is Sally?
So I was thinking in the middle of the night, 3:35 A.M, exactly how old is Sally? They never say her age and time has passed since we’ve last seen her, so how old would she be today? I did the math and her age is actually not that old. This is how I did it.
Okay, So I added the two video games , The pumpkin king and Oogies revenge. According to Wikipedia, The Pumpkin King is set one year BEFORE the events of Nightmare before Christmas, So I set Sally’s age at 1yr old. It isn’t said in the movie or games, but if you go by Disneystrology, Sally’s Birthday is on February 8th which I’m assuming is when Sally was brought to life. The trio refer Sally as the NEW assistant/creation. Then comes The Nightmare Before Christmas, setting her at two years old, then Oogies Revenge, which puts her at 3yrs old. The movie itself is turning 24 This year in October, So add 24 +3 that would give you 27.So Sally is 26 going on 27.
BUT That’s not the year the movie is set in. Selick confirmed that the movie takes place in the late 60′s. I decided to pick the year 1967,so just subtract a year for The Pumpkin King (1966) and add one year to Oogies Revenge (1968). If we go by the movie and add 23 years to that,1967, that would make our lovable blue doll 49 going on 50 in October. Either way/age you pick, Sally is still a young buck…when compared to other monsters. Oh and Jack’s birthday isn’t even in October…his Birthday, Disneystrology, is actually May 11th.
MIND BLOWN.
