It's Christmas Eve: a time of wonder, magic, anticipation... and terror.
A father who will go to any lengths to feed his hungry children. An unsuspecting woman who inherits a house with a deadly secret. A murderous widow who shares a train carriage with Jack the Ripper. Two burglars who bite off more than they can chew during a late-night raid.
These and many more bedtime stories come hideously to life in Mark L'Estrange's nineteen tales of terror, each set on the most festive night of the year. Will anyone survive until Christmas morning?
