Halloween thief steals 13-foot Jack Skellington decoration from Corona home

CORONA, Calif. (KABC) -- Corona police are looking for a thief who made off with a 13-foot Jack Skellington decoration from a home.

The incident happened early Sunday morning.

The stolen animatronic of the protagonist from the 1993 film "The Nightmare Before Christmas" is worth more than $500 and has been a holiday staple for the homeowner for years.

The Corona Police Department says thefts are rare in the neighborhood, but seasonal animatronics are in high demand.
