Christmas. A cozy, quaint holiday that brings with it joy and peace for anyone who celebrates it. That is, unless you live in the town of Crosby. At one time a town enthusiastic toward the holiday season, it is now a former shell of itself, sitting haunted by its dark past. Eight years ago exactly, police were summoned to the Stephens home on Christmas Eve to discover the brutally butchered bodies of Delilah Stephens and her husband, Gary. Their young daughter, traumatized. Their infant son, missing. Their eldest son, Nick? He was the one who killed not only them, but several other victims over the next year. After he is finally caught and incarcerated, the town finally thinks it can put the past behind them and begins to proceed with Christmas celebrations. His old home, which has stood empty ever since that night, has recently been bought by a family of three, who are seeking to move forward from their own troubled past. But no sooner than the family move in does Nick break out of his imprisonment, proceeding to make his way to town with the intent of continuing what he started. Haunted by his own experiences with the killer, Sheriff Sam Taylor is determined to put the depraved individual back behind bars, especially when young Tori Williams claims Nick is after her.
