Merry Krampus Night is a spoof of the Clement C. Moore classic The Night Before Christmas, but instead of waiting for Santa to come and give presents, party guests are waiting for Krampus, the Christmas demon, to come and play guitar in their goth band. Krampus is known throughout Eastern Europe as the horned Christmas demon who steals naughty children and puts them in his giant basket. It's a horrific practice, and terrifying to all children who experience it. But why, exactly, does Krampus do this? What led him to such extremes?Merry Krampus Night posits that Krampus has feelings, too. Poor Krampus, who plays the blues in this story, sings out his woes to terrified and delighted party guests in a remote Edward Gorey-esque house on the fifth of December. The problem: Krampus is lonely. He has to kidnap children just to have some company during the holidays. His methods may be malicious, but his intentions are - actually, his intentions are really, really bad.

After years of being sidelined, Krampus decides to take over Christmas by delivering coal to every kid in the world. But a child that he meets along way, may change his mind.

The holidays are sometimes predictable. The name, Santa everywhere we forgot about the one creature hiding in his shadow. The one being that would come if one of us dared walk the beaten paths of naughtiness... Krampus is back, and so we wish you a Merry Fright!Krampus Korps by Aida JacobsKrampus has gone rogue, and the fate of Christmas hangs in the balance.

My Brother's Keeper by Winter LawrenceOn a cold, dark night in Colorado, Brett Ellington learns the hard way that hosting a séance on the 5th of December isn't a good idea. There are ghosts to contend with--like dead brothers who give cryptic advice, and there's ZoZo too, the demon king of the Ouija board. He's harder to pin down, and rumor has it that he's a prankster, so Brett can't tell if he's the only spirit in the house or if there's something else lurking on the roof. As the night draws on though, and the sounds of rattling chains and jingle bells fill the chimney, Brett begins to wonder if ZoZo isn't the only thing that's come to town that night--there's something else too, something far darker and much less merrier than a couple of angry ghosts.Creating Enemies by Vanessa RossThis is a prequel to the Royal's Light by Vanessa Ross.
