Just a quick post as I'm curious about this. There are Facebook 'pages' for both Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal. Going by numbers alone it would seem these are the main pages for the films, though only TDC page has the 'official' blue tick next to it.

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Labyrinth/515245865244391?fref=ts

approx. 613,000 likes (joined FB 08/10/2014), virtually all picture posts with brief messages - there are thousands of people liking and commenting, and going by the comments many, many people have Labyrinth tattoos of variable quality.

approx. 368,000 likes (joined FB 22/05/2013), clearly seems much more official going by the style of the posts and the generally formal/corporate tone. Posts generally get a few hundred likes and a few dozen comments.

Now I know for a fact that the Labyrinth page existed before 8th October as I 'liked' it long before then - my guess is that what I 'liked' was a placeholder page and it has only recently been activated and had actual content posted to it. The main puzzle is whether the Labyrinth page is being run by an official representation of the JHC, as the sort of content being posted makes me question that.
