A video shared Oct. 18 by DisneyWorldTom shows the Jack Skellington puppet continuing through Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular after its left forearm and hand were no longer attached.

The filming date and the moment the pieces came off are not visible in the clip. Jack’s puppeteers keep the performance moving, with his left arm ending above the missing forearm. Jack appears projected across Cinderella Castle later in the video.

Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular runs for 12 minutes during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Jack hosts the production, which includes projections, lasers, lights and fireworks. Separate party admission is required.
