Santa Claus brings gifts to the good children and coal to the naughty children as per his rules and he prepares to do so at the latest house. But it is during this mission that he finds inside the house a couple of children there, but as bloody corpses and he soon comes to realize that this is the work of someone he used to know, and his name was Krampus. For centuries the horned beast known as Krampus had served as an ally to Santa as the one who bestowed punishment, often fierce to the naughty children of the world. In time however, Santa Claus would distance himself from the works of Krampus and turn to coal instead. Now it seems as though Krampus wants revenge, not just against the naughty but against the bearded man himself and all of christmas. Santa goes on a season-long hunt for the horned creature, but the mission is easier said than done. For Krampus holds a horde of fierce and mischievous dark elves at his disposal as well as other brutal and terrifying holiday horrors within his lair. So Santa goes on a mission alongside some of his elf allies named North, Charlie and Bella to hunt down the Krampus and to stop this massacre once and for all.
