Lock is a character from the 1993 Disney animated film, The Nightmare Before Christmas. He is one of the three mischievous children, often referred to as "Lock, Shock, and Barrel," who serve as Oogie Boogie's henchmen.

Voiced by Paul Reubens, Lock is easily identifiable by his devil costume, complete with red skin, horns, and a pointed tail. He is considered the leader of the trio, often devising their plans and speaking for the group.

Lock, along with Shock and Barrel, is responsible for kidnapping Santa Claus on Halloween Town's behalf, tasked by Jack Skellington to bring "Sandy Claws" to him. However, they deliver Santa to Oogie Boogie instead, showcasing their untrustworthiness and penchant for causing trouble.

Despite their villainous roles, Lock, Shock, and Barrel are presented as more comical and playful than genuinely evil. They are driven by a desire for fun and mischief, even if their actions have negative consequences.
