Christmas and Other Horrors: An Anthology of Solstice Horror by Ellen Datlow

4.0

Christmas and Other Horrors is an entertaining anthology where each story is unique in tone and inspiration. This was a delight to read over the Christmas holiday while safe and snug in our family home, accompanied by Krampus playing for my sisters and I while our parents tried to cheerily ignore the bloodshed. My favorite story in the anthology reminded me of our family classic Krampus by telling the tale of the child-eaters that were once abundant in winter myths. Many other stories included here were memorable enough to make their impression, and like the Christmas movies I obsessively rewatch year after year, this may be a title to revisit.
