Make Them Believe

By Aaron Shultz

In the small town of Everwood, nestled under a blanket of snow, the Christmas spirit was supposed to bring joy and warmth. However, for one man named Jacob Kane, the holiday season was a chilling reminder of a past he couldn't escape. Jacob was haunted by memories of a traumatic Christmas long ago, a night that shattered his world.

 

Haunted by the ghost of his past, Jacob found solace in the shadows. He became obsessed with the idea of revenge, an insatiable desire to make others feel the pain he endured. The holiday season became a breeding ground for his malevolence.

 

The façade of Santa Claus, once a symbol of generosity and kindness, transformed into a grotesque parody. The joyful "ho ho ho" turned into a sinister whisper as he turns his vengeance on unsuspecting families. The town soon echoed with screams as Jacob's long-repressed fury manifested in brutal violence.

 

The Christmas holiday in Everwood had become a nightmare, a twisted tale of trauma, vengeance, and a man who had lost himself in the darkness of his own making. The echoes of his violent deeds would forever stain the memory of the once-beloved holiday, casting a long and chilling shadow over the town of Everwood.
