Yuletide Bloodbath: 9 Christmas Horror Stories of Killer Santas, Krampus & Winter Nightmares
Looking for terrifying Christmas horror stories to binge this December? This Weekly Spooky holiday special unleashes nine brutal Christmas horror tales packed with killer Santas, vengeful Krampus spirits, murderous androids, and snow-choked nightmares — the perfect Christmas horror podcast compilation for wrapping gifts, long drives, or late-night chills.
Settle in for over-the-top holiday carnage as we revisit listener-favorite stories from across the Weekly Spooky vault, curated into one seamless Christmas horror anthology. From backwoods bloodbaths and cursed gifts to AI Santas gone rogue and Christmas Eve in a haunted psych ward, this bingeable episode delivers everything you love about the season… and everything you’re secretly afraid of.
Inside this episode:
• All I Want For Christmas — by Morgan Moore
A devoted father wants to give his daughter the perfect Christmas… even if it means doing something unimaginably horrific. As his plan spirals out of control, this tale asks just how far love — and denial — will go when the holiday lights are glaring and the secrets are buried deep.
• Blood on the Snow — by Shane Migliavacca
On Christmas Eve, bodies are piling up and a brutal killer stalks a snow-swept road. When a stranger stumbles into a roadhouse full of uneasy locals, blizzard-bound murder mystery turns into a fight for survival against something far more vicious than the storm outside.
• Santa Claus is Killin’ the Town — by Morgan Moore
A cozy trip home for the holidays becomes a small-town Christmas slasher when an old local legend crashes the party. At the quaint Chamberlain Inn, tinsel, nostalgia, and hot cocoa give way to blood, panic, and the horrifying truth behind the town’s festive folklore.
• Krampus Is Comin’ — by Rob Fields
A young woman becomes host to the spirit of Krampus on Christmas Eve, and suddenly the naughty finally get what’s coming to them. This one is a bloody revenge fantasy where ho-ho-ho turns into no-no-NO as Krampus uses her body to settle every score.
• Operation Deadly Night — by Keith Tomlin
A futuristic Santa Claus mod for home androids is supposed to spread cheer… until a glitch turns them into jolly killing machines. Families across America find themselves barricaded in their own homes, battling friendly-faced robots who only want one thing this Christmas: your last breath.
• Dead Silent Night — by David O’Hanlon
Lust, dark elves, and twisted tradition collide in a wickedly funny Christmas nightmare. What starts as a kinky holiday encounter turns into a deadly game where the “helpers” of the season have teeth, claws, and a very different wish list than you were expecting.
• 12 Days — by Mike Ashkewe
Far from Earth on a ship called the Roanoke, a pilot trapped in deep space faces AI sabotage, time slipping, and existential dread over twelve long days of Christmas. This eerie sci-fi tale turns festive countdowns into a cosmic death sentence where no signal home can save you.
• A Christmas to Remember — by Joe Solmo
Donnie finally comes home hoping for a fresh start, but the sins of his past are waiting under the tree. As old grudges ignite and fate takes a grisly turn, this story pushes holiday redemption into a dark corner where forgiveness and revenge are soaked in blood.
• Xmas at the Psych Ward — by Bruce Haney
It’s Christmas Eve in a 1960s psychiatric hospital, complete with strange patients, questionable treatments, and staff who are hiding more than they heal. When the snow falls and the power flickers, holiday cheer curdles into institutional horror — and someone (or something) inside isn’t staying in their room tonight.
Whether you’re decorating the tree, wrapping presents, or doom-scrolling through December, this Christmas horror stories marathon is built for bingeing: one epic episode, nine chilling tales, and enough killer Santas, Krampus justice, and winter nightmares to carry you straight through the season.

1
00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:08.119
Well, hello, my spookies, Welcome back to our holiday horror binge.
2
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:14.519
Another Saturday, another long, shivery stretch of stories to keep
3
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:21.399
you company while the tree glows and the wind claws
4
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.960
at your windows. Tonight's stocking is stuffed with a father
5
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:32.920
willing to do something unspeakable for the perfect Christmas. A
6
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:38.600
lonely road house where blood steams on the snow, a
7
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:44.880
small town where Santa isn't coming, he's killing. And a
8
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:49.719
young woman who feels something with hoofs and thorns slip
9
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:55.359
in behind her eyes and start making a crampis list
10
00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:00.560
of its own. We've got cheerful home robots who learn
11
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:06.640
that deck the halls can mean with your insides, dark
12
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:11.280
elves and bad decisions on a very silent night, a
13
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:15.239
twelve day countdown in deep space where the only carols
14
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:20.719
are the ships dying alarms, a homecoming that turns Christmas
15
00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:24.879
dinner into a reckoning, And a psych ward where the
16
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:32.000
tinsel hangs limp over restraints and locked doors. So pour
17
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:36.519
your cocoa, check those locks, and settle in for another
18
00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:41.920
marathon of Christmas terror, and make sure you're subscribed, because
19
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:47.040
all December long, brand new shows are dropping every day
20
00:01:47.879 --> 00:02:09.000
until Christmas. I Want for Christmas by Morgan Moore. A
21
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:13.719
deathly chill blows through the night as light snow falls
22
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:20.960
and gently blankets the ground. Cemetery gates creek open another
23
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:25.120
gust of December wind, blowing out of the hollowed grounds
24
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:28.840
As they do so. The man who unlocked and opened
25
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:32.680
the gates removes the key from the lock. In his
26
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:36.680
other hand is a shovel. He looks into the cemetery
27
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:40.560
and takes a deep breath, releasing it along with a
28
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:47.800
sigh before walking in. The man in question was Jebediah Hawkins.
29
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:53.199
Jebediah was a grave keeper for the cemetery. He had
30
00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:57.960
a wife and a little girl. His reason for being
31
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:01.919
in the cemetery tonight would never be anything of question,
32
00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:08.560
but it was Christmas Eve. Nobody worked in the cemetery
33
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.360
on Christmas Eve or day. Jebediah walked through the cemetery,
34
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:19.599
never wavering on his path. He was on a mission tonight,
35
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:29.120
one he intended to complete. A few days ago, Jebediah
36
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.080
was working a day shift. While he was cleaning in
37
00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:35.039
the funeral home that rested on the grounds, he spotted
38
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:39.879
something that took his breath away. It was the body
39
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:44.360
of a six year old girl, the same age as
40
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:49.919
his daughter. In her hands was a Tresie doll. Trecie
41
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:54.439
dolls were the new toy of the year, selling like hotcakes,
42
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:59.280
coming and going lickety split. Every little girl wanted one,
43
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:04.360
including Jebediah's daughter. Like many other parents, Jebediah and his
44
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:08.360
wife had no luck finding the doll. Their daughter's birthday
45
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:12.280
went by without her getting one. It broke the Hawkins'
46
00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:15.080
hearts to not be able to get the one thing
47
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:18.519
their daughter wanted, the one thing she asked for in
48
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:22.639
a childhood where she rarely, if ever, asked for anything.
49
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:26.279
The two agreed that if either of them found a Tressye,
50
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:31.399
that if they could, they would buy it on the spot. Unfortunately,
51
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:36.120
their town was small, filled almost exclusively with small cel
52
00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:40.000
phoned stores. Stocks of the doll came and went in
53
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:42.680
the blink of an eye, and out of town trips
54
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:46.759
proved no better. The couple had just given up hope
55
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:52.879
as Christmas approached, melancholic and ready to disappoint their daughter,
56
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:59.199
until Jebediah laid his eyes on the Tressy doll clutched
57
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:06.040
in the dead girl's hands. Tragic isn't it, the undertaker asked. Huh,
58
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:10.639
Jebediah asked. In response, poor Lass fell off a horse
59
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:14.319
she was riding and got trampled to death right before Christmas.
60
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:18.920
To boot Such a shame, the undertaker explained as he
61
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:26.639
walked away. Yeah, a real shame, Jebediah answered. The next day,
62
00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:30.600
Jebediah watched as the girl was buried, the Tressie doll
63
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:35.680
still in her hands. When he asked why they kept it,
64
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:40.439
the undertaker told him that girl and doll went everywhere
65
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:45.120
together like they were the best of friends. Her parents
66
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:47.560
thought it would be appropriate then that she went off
67
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:50.720
to heaven with a friend so she wouldn't be lonely.
68
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:56.319
It didn't take long for Jebediah to formulate his plan.
69
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:05.639
Jebediah approached the grave of the little girl, more snow
70
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:09.519
and wind blew around him, the cold cutting through to
71
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:14.800
his bones. Am I really about to do this? He thought.
72
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.360
He wanted to give his daughter a great Christmas, give
73
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:21.319
her the one thing she asked for.
74
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:23.160
Can I do this?
75
00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:28.480
His answer was an earth piercing yes. As he stabbed
76
00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:32.319
the shovel into the ground. He repeats the action again
77
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:36.079
and again, throwing snow covered dirt off to the side.
78
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:39.639
As he works his way deeper into the little girl's grave.
79
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:44.319
Jebediah's mind blocked out all thoughts of the dead child
80
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:48.399
he saw only a few days ago, instead conjuring up
81
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:52.560
the image of his daughter with the doll playing happily
82
00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:56.519
a few hours from now on Christmas Day. He thought
83
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.079
of him and his wife sitting by the fire come nightfall,
84
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:05.959
an extra happy Christmas behind them. It was these thoughts
85
00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:08.920
that kept Jebediah busy until he felt the shovel head
86
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:14.319
slam into the coffin. Jebediah looked down at the small box.
87
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:18.600
A gust of wind blew by and threw dirt down
88
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:22.639
onto Jebediah and the coffin, almost as if the universe
89
00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:28.680
was telling him to stop. I can't stop, not now.
90
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:34.399
Jebediah started to stab the coffin with the shovel. As
91
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:38.279
the head struck the casket repeatedly, wood splintered and flew up.
92
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:43.079
Jebediah kept at it for minutes before finally punching a
93
00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:47.680
hole through the coffin. He stared down into the breach
94
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:54.160
and saw the little girl's face and the doll. The
95
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:56.839
desperate father tossed the shovel out of the grave and
96
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:01.680
knelt down beside the coffin. Jebediah gulped as he stared
97
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:07.839
down at the girl's corpse. He reached into the coffin,
98
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:16.480
grabbed the doll, and pulled up. Nothing budged. Jebediah tried again,
99
00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:21.519
but nothing moved. He looked closer as he kept trying
100
00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:25.560
to pull the doll out. The doll was clasped so
101
00:08:25.800 --> 00:08:30.279
tightly in her hands that it wouldn't budge. Every tug
102
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:35.039
got him nowhere closer to getting the tressy doll. The
103
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:38.960
night was moving on and the temperature was dropping. Soon
104
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:44.120
it would be midnight Christmas. If he didn't get the
105
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:48.159
doll back home in time, then Christmas would be ruined.
106
00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:52.519
Jebediah braced a foot against the coffin and grabbed the
107
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:55.679
doll with both hands. He put all his strength into
108
00:08:55.799 --> 00:09:03.240
one big tug. The doll came free, and so did
109
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:08.000
the hands of the little girl. Still gripping the doll.
110
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.360
Jebediah stared in horror at the image. He pried the
111
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.279
hands off the doll and threw them back into the coffin.
112
00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:22.919
Jebediah stared down into the hole, into the coffin, and
113
00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:26.559
at the dead little girl, her hands laying on opposite
114
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:30.360
ends of her body. The more he looked at her,
115
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:35.200
the more she started to remind him of his own daughter.
116
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:41.799
Jebediah felt a tinge of regret for what he'd done.
117
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:45.039
What if his daughter was dead and someone dug up
118
00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:49.960
her body to get something. He looked down at the doll.
119
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:54.360
All of this, all of this fuss over a simple
120
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:59.600
little doll. Jebediah stretched his arms out, hands trembling as
121
00:09:59.639 --> 00:10:02.919
he told himself he couldn't take it. He closed his eyes,
122
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:06.720
unable to bear looking at the corpse. The man tried
123
00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:11.679
to conjure up images more pleasant. What came to him
124
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:16.759
was the image of his daughter on Christmas morning, playing
125
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:22.399
with her new Trescy doll. Jebediah opened his eyes and
126
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:26.320
looked at the doll. He had to go through with it,
127
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:35.480
he told himself, for his little girl. Sorry, Jebediah said
128
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:38.480
to the dead girl. He climbed out of the grave
129
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.360
and set the doll down before picking up the shovel. Quickly,
130
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:47.279
he filled the hole back up with dirt, grabbed the doll,
131
00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:50.960
and high tailed it out of the cemetery into his
132
00:10:51.000 --> 00:11:00.559
car and sped away into the night. Jebediah knuck into
133
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:04.159
his house, being careful not to make too much noise.
134
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:07.799
He headed to the kitchen and turned on a small
135
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:12.720
light above the sink. Jeb placed the doll down, took
136
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:16.360
off his coat, and picked the doll back up with
137
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:19.159
a flick of his wrist. Jebediah turned on the water
138
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.240
and started to clean the doll. After some time, the
139
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:26.759
doll was clean of all dirt and Jebediah managed to
140
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:30.440
get out some of the stench of earth. He smiled
141
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:33.120
at the tressy and placed it on the kitchen table.
142
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:40.360
Now to get you wrapped up, Jebediah said, triumphantly. Jebediah
143
00:11:40.440 --> 00:11:43.120
walked out of the kitchen and started heading to his
144
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:46.639
wife's sewing room. The grandfather clock in the living room
145
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:54.840
struck midnight. It was Christmas. Jebediah stopped as the clock
146
00:11:55.000 --> 00:12:01.120
chimed and looked at the Christmas tree. Suddenly, a microburst
147
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:04.879
assaulted the Hawkins house. The windows burst open, and wind
148
00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:09.080
and snow assaulted Jebediah. He tried to get to the windows,
149
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:12.360
but is throated by how strong the wind is. Next,
150
00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:14.840
he attempted to retreat to the sewing room, but a
151
00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:17.840
gust of wind blew through the windows inside the room
152
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:23.399
and slammed Jebediah to the ground. He tried to stand up,
153
00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:28.480
but found that he couldn't. Instead, he crawled his way
154
00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:34.639
back into the kitchen. Upon entering the kitchen, the wind stopped.
155
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:40.600
The house felt deathly cold as Jebediah stood up cautiously,
156
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.440
he went to call out for his family, but found
157
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:49.919
he couldn't due to a tightening pressure on his throat.
158
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:56.000
Jebediah looked down at his neck and found a disembodied
159
00:12:56.080 --> 00:12:59.840
hand clasped around it. He grabbed hold of the hand
160
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:02.279
and tore it off of him, bits of flesh and
161
00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:05.039
blood going with it. Jeb threw it to the ground
162
00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:08.159
and stomped as hard as he could on it, crushing
163
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:12.039
it in a single blow. A shrill mix of a
164
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:17.639
cry and laugh rang in Jebediah's ears. He spun around
165
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:20.879
to find the ghostly image of the little Girl from
166
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:26.759
the Grave hovering in his kitchen. Jebediah gasped and disbelief
167
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:31.919
at what was in front of him. What you're dead,
168
00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:38.360
he cried, Give it back. The spirit demanded give what
169
00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:43.639
back my friend, the ghastly girl screamed, loud enough to
170
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:50.960
shatter windows. Jebediah stood confused until he remembered what the
171
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:55.000
undertaker had said. That girl and doll went everywhere together
172
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.320
like they were the best of friends. Her parents thought
173
00:13:58.360 --> 00:14:00.600
it would be appropriate then that she went off to
174
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:04.440
heaven with a friend so she wouldn't be lonely. The doll.
175
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:09.519
It was that damned doll. Jebediah stared up at the table.
176
00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:14.159
How could a doll have made this happen? He asked himself.
177
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:19.639
He looked at the girl. You don't understand, my daughter.
178
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:23.279
She wants it, needs it. You'll have plenty of friends
179
00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:25.879
up in heaven. Can't you allow a little girl to
180
00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:27.039
know the happiness you.
181
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:27.600
Knew with it?
182
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:33.159
Jebediah pleaded. The girl answers with her other detached hand,
183
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:37.679
grabbing hold of Jebediah's face, its nails digging into his flesh.
184
00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:40.919
He grabbed hold of the hand and once more freed himself,
185
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:45.639
his face bearing gashes that would scar. Jebediah quickly got
186
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:48.039
to his feet and grabbed the tress doll off the
187
00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:52.559
table and ran from the kitchen. Jebediah ran into the
188
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:55.919
living room. As he tried to approach the stairs, the
189
00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:59.559
ghost appeared. She brought down everything she could in the
190
00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:02.879
living room to stop him in his path, books, furniture,
191
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.919
anything and everything. But Jebediah persevered. Finally he reached the
192
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:12.120
stairs and ascended them to the second floor. The house
193
00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:15.279
started to shake. A deafening cry of anguish and rage
194
00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:18.960
echoed through the house. Jebediah sprinted towards his daughter's room.
195
00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:23.200
No an avalanche of snow fell upon the Hawkins house.
196
00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:27.279
Jebediah screamed as the force brought down the roof. The
197
00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:31.600
second floor collapsed onto the first, leaving the house completely
198
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:40.799
and utterly demolished. Jebediah bolted awake, gasping for air. Despite
199
00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:45.399
the wintry cold, he was drenched in sweat. Honey, what
200
00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:49.000
is it, his wife asked in a panic. She rubbed
201
00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:51.360
the small of his back, and the sensation of feeling
202
00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:55.600
touch brought comfort to him. He looked at his wife
203
00:15:55.600 --> 00:15:59.360
and embraced her in a tight, near violent hug. Missus
204
00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:03.679
Hawkins turned the gesture. Jebediah broke the embrace and ran
205
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:08.759
out of their bedroom and into his daughters. She wasn't there. Downstairs,
206
00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:13.039
he exclaimed. Jebediah ran downstairs with his wife not too
207
00:16:13.080 --> 00:16:15.799
far behind him. When they reached the living room, the
208
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:19.960
couple found their daughter sitting by the Christmas tree. She
209
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:23.960
turned and looked at her parents with a smile. Jebediah
210
00:16:24.039 --> 00:16:29.399
sighed in relief. What kept you sleepy heads waiting? It's Christmas?
211
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:34.879
The daughter said, yes, yes, it is, Jebediah said, with
212
00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:40.279
a huge smile. It was all a dream, he told himself.
213
00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:44.159
Mister and missus Hawkins sat on their couch while their
214
00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:49.519
daughter began to open presents. Jebediah kissed his wife and
215
00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:53.600
the two shared smiles and I love yous. From the
216
00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:58.759
outside looking in, the Hawkins were having a perfect Christmas.
217
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:05.839
But outside in a blackened ethereal plane, the little girl
218
00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:09.319
sat and looked through the roof and into the house.
219
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:15.200
She grinned, well, Tressy, it looks like we have some
220
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:22.759
new friends forever and ever. Merry Christmas, she told her doll,
221
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:28.400
giving it a big hug before returning her gaze to
222
00:17:28.559 --> 00:17:43.680
her brand new toys. Blood on the Snow by Shane Nigliavanka.
223
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:50.720
The cold numbed the man's feet. The snow was nearly
224
00:17:50.759 --> 00:17:55.000
to his knees. There was nobody to be seen. It
225
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:59.640
was a blizzard on Christmas Eve. Only fools and lunatics
226
00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:02.799
would be on the road tonight. He could have sworn
227
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:05.960
he'd seen a sign. What the hell was it called
228
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:10.720
VIA's Roadhouse. He could go for a nice, juicy burger
229
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:14.680
and some fries, though he really doubted they'd be open.
230
00:18:16.359 --> 00:18:19.599
I don't think you saw it. The man didn't turn.
231
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:23.599
He didn't want to give Simon the satisfaction. This is
232
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:27.200
a fine mess you've gotten us in. Simon moaned, we
233
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:33.279
should go back. We have a job to do. Away
234
00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:37.200
down the road, the man stopped. An abandoned car sat
235
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:42.279
alongside the shoulder, covered by the steady snowfall. Brushing the
236
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:46.839
snow off the driver's side window, the man peered inside.
237
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:51.920
The interior was bathed in a faint red hue. The
238
00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:54.920
car was empty, save for a cell phone sitting on
1
00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:08.119
2
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:14.519
3
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:21.399
4
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.960
5
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:32.920
6
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:38.600
7
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:44.880
8
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:49.719
9
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:55.359
10
00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:00.560
11
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:06.640
12
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:11.280
13
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:15.239
14
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:20.719
15
00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:24.879
16
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:32.000
17
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:36.519
18
00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:41.920
19
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:47.040
20
00:01:47.879 --> 00:02:09.000
21
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:13.719
22
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:20.960

00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:25.120

00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:32.680
