This is a series of linked short stories dealing with monsters, magic, and murder; ancient gods, grievous histories, and powerful destinies; and with an unknown side to that mysterious figure known to some as Father Christmas (a.k.a. Santa Claus), his dark alpine shadow, Krampus, as well as other Northern Yurpeen folklore and myths (as seen through an American's eyes).

These stories (as a whole cycle) involve strong language, violence, sexuality, end-of-year holiday traditions, and fairy-tale subjects on the darker side of the "Bruno Bettelheim" scale, the ones where bad & lazy servants gets tarred and feathered, and the wicked are forced to dance themselves to death wearing red-hot iron shoes.

Disney has left been driven from the building.

Hope you enjoy.
