Jb Whirtley's Dr Scaryington Takes over Christmas

When Dr. Scaryington is up in his gloomy mansion, while reading a horrible murder tale by Edgar Allen Poe, he finds a chapter about a holiday called Christmas. He reads about a strange man riding on a sleigh with eight tiny reindeer and who gives presents to children all over the world. Dr. Scaryington gets an idea to make Christmas a better holiday. Although, after kidnapping Santa Claus and taking hostage of all the elves, along with giving children nightmares, Christmas becomes a disaster. This story draws on the dark tradition of Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas with the look of the artwork from Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas-JB Whirtley style.
