Jingle bells and prancing elves. Child's play and Santa's sleigh. In winter's night say your prayers. Chase away the season's scares. If you're bad he'll come for you. On your bloody bones he'll chew. What if the songs and tales of Santa Claus are all lies? What if they were created to cover up the true horror of the holiday season? Each year, thousands of children go missing, never to be seen again. In the city of Crossings, Pennsylvania, the children are in danger. A centuries-old evil stalks the streets looking for more victims to feed on. Only the children with pure souls will be spared. For years, Nick has trained hard and hunted Klaus. Each time he fails, he falls further into his self-imposed isolation and feels his humanity slipping. Afraid that he may turn into the very evil he has sworn to fight, Nick must find redemption before he loses his soul...or his life. After experiencing a traumatic childhood event, Angela lives in constant fear that demons will come for her. When her nightmares begin to take life, her world is turned upside-down once again. Unsure if the creatures she sees are fantasy or reality, she must decide whether to confront her fears or let them consume her. The terrifying truth of Christmas is here. Have you been naughty or nice? A portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Controversial yet beloved among audiences, Christmas-themed horror movies emerged in the early 1970s and gained a notorious reputation with Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984), depicting Santa as an ax-wielding maniac. Some parents and conservative groups condemned the film, while others embraced the portrayal of Yuletide as a backdrop for fear and dread. Drawing on interviews with directors, producers, special effects artists, photographers and actors, this book celebrates the sordid, colorful history of the Christmas horror subgenre. Psycho Santa films such as Christmas Evil (1980) and 3615 code Pere Noel (1989) are examined, along with "Yule-Die" slashers like The Dorm that Dripped Blood (1982), Black Christmas (1974) and Silent Night, Bloody Night (1972). Commercial successes like Gremlins (1984) and Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) are covered, as well as more recent releases such as Better Watch Out (2016), Red Christmas (2016) and Deathcember (2019). Rare photographs, promotional materials and an annotated filmography are provided.

During the second half of the 20th century, landmark works of the horror film genre were as much the product of enterprising regional filmmakers as of the major studios. From backwoods Utah to the Louisiana bayous to the outer boroughs of New York, independent, regional films like Night of the Living Dead, Last House on the Left, I Spit on Your Grave, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and The Evil Dead stood at the vanguard of horror cinema. This overview of regionally produced horror and science fiction films includes interviews with 13 directors and producers who operated far from mainstream Hollywood, along with a state-by-state listing of regionally produced genre films made between 1958 and 1990. Highlighting some of the most influential horror films of the past 50 years, this work celebrates not only regional filmmaking, but also a cultural regionalism that is in danger of vanishing.
