It's a Wonderful Knife - Christopher Golden
A Hollywood holiday party, a sleazy studio head, a Midwestern girl on a mission, a lost film... Atta girl, indeed.

Good Deeds - Jeff Strand
No good deed goes unpunished, as they say, lol.
Have you ever heard a song so depressing that it made you question your will to live? This one was a funny little one that also serves as a cautionary tale of sorts.

Tenets - Josh Malerman
A holiday party is abuzz with speculation about a supposed "failed cult leader" in attendance... What were the cult's tenets? And as a newly freed man, why does he seem so haunted?
This one has stylized text (most notably, the sparse use of quotation marks that I've seen this author utilize before). This may affect reader enjoyment, though it was fine for me.

Not Just for Christmas - Sarah Lotz
A Black Mirror-esque glimpse of latest and greatest designer pets. The foul-mouthed little guy cracked me up. Fans of M3GAN may especially enjoy this one.

Love Me - Thomas E. Sniegoski
A desperate ex-con takes one more job with the aim of reuniting with his daughter... but he quickly learns he's not the only desperate one. This one is fun, and feels in the vein of a Christmas classic like Gremlins.

Absinthe & Angels - Kelley Armstrong
A remote Canadian cabin, on what is supposed to be a quiet, romantic holiday getaway... Ava and Michael imbibe absinthe, and are soon visited by Ava's childhood fear made real. A nightmare before Christmas? Or is it? Mum's the word.
