Christmas. A time of peace, joy, and good will to all, right? Not this time.

After tragedy strikes, Eric offers a helping hand to an old family friend and reluctantly agrees to look after her college student daughter, Cassie, over the winter break. A run-down motel in rural Minnesota isn't exactly how Cassie had planned to spend the festive season, but it could always be worse - if, say, she discovered a body in the trunk of her guardian's car, only to realize the body is actually alive, non-human and seemingly impossible to kill.

Over the next couple of weeks, Cassie joins Eric in tracking down rogue Christmas beasts across the state, leading all the way to the patriarch of the winter's monsters himself.

Knight Casefiles Novella: Christmas Lights by AnInnocentBystander

‘Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the town, not a creature was stirring, ...I should be that lucky. It's Christmas time in New York City, but even during the holidays, there's no rest for the wicked. Christopher Pierce, Knight of Gram and Champion of Humanity, is approached by a very familiar mythical figure to help him - you guessed it - save Christmas. Because what else is a Knight supposed to do? A/N: This novella is written after the end of Revelations, meaning a new apartment for Chris, a very well-informed Elaine, and an absent Sigrun. I'm a little fuzzy on the timeline myself having not touched this series in a while, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. :) I've included some Christmas songs I've been indulging in since the season started so give them a listen if you're hurting for some holiday spirit. Happy holidays!

The Last Winter by mb-oreo

She returns back home for winter break with a sense of dread. The youth group would never be the same as it was before she graduated high school. Desperate to repair what has been broken, the youth group is taken to a weekend retreat at a big lodge in the snowy mountains of Michigan, with hopes of reviving the lost spirit of the youth. Things take a turn for the worst when members start to go missing one by one. Oriana and her younger sister, Nelia, quickly realize that there might be someone else--or someTHING--lurking around the lodge. Deception. Secrets. Revenge. Lies. Insanity. Terror.

The Bride Of Krampus (Yandere! Krampus x Shy & Mute OC) by rappgirl2014

Sophia North was always that of the broken sort. With her abusive father and the bullies in her school she is treated as the freak only because of her natural icy eyes and for one simple fact. She still believed in Santa at eighteen years of age. Because of the abuse, physical and mental, she stays quiet and keeps to herself. One night her father kicks her out of the house in the freezing snowy night with rags of clothes, only to be saved by a kind, old, German woman and is welcomed into the Engel families home for Christmas. Little does she know that spending this Christmas with the two opposing families will be life changing and life threatening. I do not own Krampus, only the plot twist and the OC. All rights go to the creator, producers, and actors of Krampus. #1 in yandere- 23 August 2018 #1 in obsession- 22 August 2018 #1 in kill- 21 August 2018

A Twisted Christmas by spicy_sweets

Every Christmas Eve, King Santa Claus soars through the skies to deliver presents in a sleigh pulled by eight flying reindeer. But until midnight, if you listen closely, you can hear his merciless whip snapping across their backs. Krampus, the goat demon and punisher of naughty children, was once the king's most trusted advisor, and even named heir to Santa's throne. However, when he began to question the North Polian monarchy, he was exiled to the outskirts of Antartica. Now, after spending a century in solitude, Krampus is finally summoned back to his home. Upon his return, he learns of how tyrannous the king has become in his absence. It isn't anywhere near the holidays, but it looks like Santa won't be the only one working overtime this year.

Misery County by Michael_Houston

When he hung up his combat boots for the last time, Eric planned to enjoy a taste of the quiet life. Destiny had other ideas. After being called out to help an old friend with a mysterious disturbance, Eric finds himself at the front line of a very different kind of battlefield; one where the weapons are unearthly, the stakes are high, and the enemies aren't human. Alongside Cassie, his friend, fellow monster hunter, and begrudging surrogate sister, Eric makes it his mission to rid Missouri County of its supernatural scourge, but what started off as a simple job ends up costing Eric more than he knew he had to lose. Now with soundtrack! I'm thrilled to say that the full ebook and paperback are now available at Amazon from... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07M65SCMM ...or simply search "Misery County Michael Houston" in your own country's Amazon. Q: Will the full story still stay on Wattpad. A: Yes! But who doesn't love a good ol' paperback in their hands? And that new book smell... mmm, simply delicious...

Graveyard of Lullabies by jordynsaelor

Flickers of fallen people haunt this death mage--kings, queens, and boys buried in the blue ocean. Years ago, she fled those figures, to a house isolated in the tundra. There, she rebuilds herself from the boy she used to be--between the blood of badly done curses, the Skeleton Cook dancing in the kitchen, and the ice of darkest winters. But in the snows of her garden one day, she finds a magical egg, the size of a skull. Journeying to discover its origins takes her to the royal city, where she must choose to aid the queen in battling for her stolen palace; or take the hatching, violent creature (wanted by enemies in the city) and vanish back into the wilderness.
