James sells toys. He’s a workaholic and he’s made a very good living, even if his wife and four children don’t appreciate it. Truth is, his marriage is falling apart and he barely recognizes his kids. So when James’s youngest daughter, seven-year-old Reba, asks God for a Christmas miracle to “fix” her family, something most unexpected happens—unexpected and horrible. The Christmas tree catches fire and the house burns down, taking with it all of their possessions.

After a devastating broken engagement, school counselor Kate Wilson returns to Mistletoe Meadows seeking a fresh start away from Boston's betrayals. The charming Christmas-themed town seems perfect for rebuilding her life and career—as long as she keeps her heart safely locked away.

When Christmas Eve falls over Maple Ridge, it blankets the town in a quiet serenity, at least, that is what Rose Fairfield hopes for. After a devastating year, she and her teenage daughter Emma have prepared for a low-key holiday, striving to piece together a semblance of peace. But as the snow falls and carols drift faintly from warm homes, a dark presence stirs outside. When Rose and Emma glimpse a lifeless figure at their neighbour’s door, a horrifying chain of events is unleashed, dragging them into a world far more nightmarish than anything they could have imagined.

In Slayground, Christmas takes a terrifying turn. Set in a festive amusement park blanketed with snow and holiday lights, what begins as a magical evening quickly spirals into chaos. The staff and visitors face something far more sinister than seasonal stress, a virus turning people into grotesque, bloodthirsty monsters with twisted smiles and vacant, hungry eyes.

When Jenny and Greg stumble upon a mysterious crimson ornament, they unknowingly invite an ancient darkness into their home, a presence hungry for blood and steeped in centuries-old secrets. As the festive decorations around their tree twist into sinister forms, Jenny and Greg are thrust into a battle for their lives and their very souls. The ornament binds them to an ancient curse, where shadows take shape, whispers echo in the dark, and the spirit of Christmas is consumed by something far more malevolent.

The Charleston streets are dressed for the holidays in sophisticated Southern style: topiaries adorned with red ribbons, garland entwined with white lights, and poinsettias potted in gold planters. The high class bordello in a stately historic home is certainly no exception. When Private Investigator Liz Talbot’s dear friend Olivia swears she saw a dead body in the parlor of this bordello, one Olivia accidentally co-owns, Liz promptly comes to her aid.

Friends don’t let friends fake date alone. Oscar Wilde once said, “Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.” Ha! Wrong. Dead wrong. And I can totally prove it. For the last seven years, I’ve been just friends with Jack Holiday—yes, that Jack Holiday. The swoon-worthy, ridiculously famous, self-proclaimed king of the silver screen. Passion? Love? Worship? Please. Unless you count how much Jack worships himself. Take that, Oscar!

Op kerstavond strandt Nina's trein tijdens een sneeuwstorm in Amsterdam. Ze kan geen kant op want ze kent niemand in de stad en alle hotels zijn volgeboekt.
