There is an introduction in here by Kealan talking about how every year during Christmas he writes a wintery horror short story and sends that out to all his e-mail contacts. I just imagine poor unsuspecting people who lose all their ability to be happy because these were doozies. There is one about Santa‘s last ride that made me shed a tear at the laundromat. The list of 50-60 wintery horror books he provides in the back is worth the buy alone.
