Christmas Eve 1980. Chester Van Buren returns to his decaying family mansion, after having witnessed his parents brutal murders at the hands of an escaped mental patient, dressed in a Santa costume, 17 years prior. He is now back to face his past trauma and spend the holidays with his dysfunctional and over-privileged relatives. It's not long before Santa is up to his old tricks again, as a serial killer dressed as a demented Saint Nick begins to dispatch family members one by one. Has the killer returned to finish what he started or is the truth something far more terrifying, as Chester grapples with his sanity in this twisted, festively fun seasonal slasher.
