'''Christmas Town''' is an expanded part of [[Halloween Town]] added in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', located through a door in the Hinterlands. Although it is a world of its own story-wise,<ref>'''''The Nightmare Before Christmas''''': "For the story you're about to be told began with the holiday worlds of old. Now, you've probably wondered where holidays come from. If you haven't, I'd say its time you begun for the holidays are the result of much fuss and hard work for the worlds that create them for us."</ref> it is recognized as a part of Halloween Town for gameplay purposes, as shown under the location title as the player proceeds through the areas.
 
As a special world, it represents the holiday of Christmas. Once a year, the ruler [[Santa Claus]] will travel throughout the universe to give presents to children named on his nice-list.
 
[[Oogie Boogie]] and [[The Experiment]] are fought here respectively during the first and second visits to Halloween Town.
 
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the normal and battle music of Christmas Town were the same as Halloween Town. However, in the ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' version, Christmas Town gained new pieces: ''What A Surprise?!'' and ''Happy Holidays!'', respectively. They both were included on the ninth disc of the ''[[Kingdom Hearts Original Soundtrack Complete]]''.
 
==Settings and Areas==
Traveling through the doorway in Halloween Town's Hinterlands will lead to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Yuletide Hill}}'''|街外れ|Machihazure no Oka|lit. "Hill on the Outskirts of Town"}}, where characters can travel down the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Candy Cane Lane}}'''|クリスマス通り|Kurisumasu-dōri|lit. "Christmas Street"}}, a plaza which features a carousel as its centerpiece. In Christmas Town, characters can visit Santa Claus himself in {{nihongo|'''{{a|Santa's House}}'''|サンタの部屋|Santa no Heya|lit.

==Character Design==
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', Sora, Donald, and Goofy lose their Halloween Town garb and gain Christmas-themed forms instead. Sora retains his vampire form but the garb is replaced by a black Santa suit. Unlike Sora, however, Donald and Goofy completely lose all traces of their Halloween Town forms, becoming a snowman and reindeer, respectively.
