Christmas Of the Dead
A horror anthology featuring undead holiday figures like zombie Santas and reanimated reindeer.
Giangregorio transforms beloved Christmas symbols into instruments of terror in this collection. The stories replace warmth with dread by corrupting familiar traditions. Zombie Santas hunt victims instead of delivering gifts. Undead elves and reanimated reindeer add to the chaos. The narrative focuses on the consequences of being naughty, which now means facing death rather than coal. This work appeals to readers who enjoy subverting seasonal expectations through horror. It does not cater to those seeking comfort or traditional holiday cheer. The text relies on grotesque imagery and dark humor to create its atmosphere.
This book sits within the tradition of horror fiction that subverts Christmas themes. Published by Living Dead Press in 2015, it targets readers who enjoy dark twists on holiday iconography. The work reflects a niche interest in corrupted seasonal narratives.
