Tell a Creepy Christmas Short Story.
There was a small town where every Christmas, people would hear a haunting carol. It seemed to come from the old, abandoned church on the hill. One year, a curious boy named Tom decided to investigate. As he entered the church, it was freezing cold. He saw a figure in a tattered Christmas robe by the altar. The figure turned and its face was a blur. It sang a song that made Tom's blood run cold. He ran out as fast as he could, and from that day on, he never went near the church on Christmas again.
In a snowy village, there was a Christmas tradition of leaving out cookies for Santa. But one year, a family noticed that every morning, the cookies were not eaten in the normal way. Instead, they were smeared all over the plate, and there were strange footprints leading to the attic. The children were curious and went to the attic. There, they found a small, hunched - over creature with long fingers. It hissed at them and they ran away. That Christmas was filled with unease, and they never left cookies out again.

What are some elements that can make a Christmas short story creepy?
One element is a spooky setting like an old, abandoned house or a dark forest during Christmas. For example, if the story is set in a dilapidated mansion where the wind howls through the broken windows on Christmas Eve. Another is having strange characters such as a menacing Santa Claus or a shadowy figure that doesn't belong. Also, the use of unusual sounds like eerie Christmas carols that sound distorted or the sound of bells when there's no bell in sight can make a Christmas short story creepy.
What are the common themes in creepy Christmas short stories?
One common theme is the subversion of the traditional Christmas cheer. Instead of joy and celebration, there's fear and dread. Another theme is the appearance of supernatural entities like ghosts, demons or malevolent spirits during the Christmas season, which is supposed to be a time of peace. For example, in many stories, the ghosts of the past come back to haunt people on Christmas. Also, a sense of isolation is often present. Whether it's a family trapped in a snow - covered house or someone alone in an old building on Christmas, this isolation adds to the creepiness.
