But this year, something wicked stirs beneath the merriment. As the disco lights flash and the dance floor beckons, the unsuspecting partygoers become trapped in a nightmare they never saw coming. Amidst the glimmering tinsel and twinkling lights, an evil presence infiltrates the dance, turning it into a horrifying spectacle.

Christmas, the happiest time of year. Plum puddings, candy canes, carols by the fireside. But outside, the mist lies deep and still. Frost gnaws at your fingertips. Shadowy forms lurk in the evergreens. It’s the season for ghost stories.

Christmas may come but once a year but human emotions, the driving force of our characters, are with us every day. Yet, somehow these same emotions when they happen at Christmas seem amplified; we seem more tender to their touch, their words. Whether it’s a long-lost returning soldier wondering how best to return to the arms of his family without too great a risk of shock... Or a prodigal son whose taken path has driven pain into his own and others hearts… These stories reveal much about the human condition.
