A new kind of Holiday Adventure

— THE STORY —

BROOKLYN, NY
It’s Christmas Eve and 12-year old Sarie Connelly and her posse of twinkle-eyed pals bubble with excitement. After years of receiving the wrong presents, The Stratford Five (as they’ve been calling themselves, named after their apartment building) have hatched a plan to get precisely the presents they want by sending out their requests a full year early.

But when Sarie’s 10-year old brother Danny barges in on the Stratford Five’s meeting and tries to share his version of Christmas, the gang declares their version of the holiday correct. Christmas day is about getting presents. And they’re determined to use Santa to get them.

Sarie and Danny have a clash of ideas which leads to a falling out. Danny decides to find Santa himself and discover the true meaning of Christmas once and for all.

He ventures to the rooftop and encounters a dark, mysterious figure. One who quickly snatches up the young Danny and he’s never to be seen again.

Until...


ONE YEAR LATER… CHRISTMAS EVE
Sarie and the now estranged Stratford Five all receive magical Christmas cards from the long-lost Danny. He says he’s been kidnapped and is being held captive at the North Pole. He begs them to come save him from the clutches of a dark Santa Claus.

Sure enough on the roof, just like the letter said, Santa’s sleigh lands on top of the Stratford apartment building and the gang hitches a ride to The North Pole.

But upon arriving, The North Pole is almost unrecognizable, overrun with dark elves and evil forces. And when dark holiday spirit known as Krampus reveals himself as the creator of this corrupt Christmas village, Sarie knows that now she must not only find a way to save Danny, but entire Christmas holiday.
