At Flashbak: Have a Merry Scary Christmas: 5 Cult-TV Christmas Episodes to Terrorize Your Holiday


My newest article at Flashbak looks at Christmas episodes of horror TV series.

Here's a snippet (and the url:http://flashbak.com/have-a-merry-scary-christmas-5-cult-tv-episodes-to-terrorize-your-holiday-28170/ )


"If you’re looking for a little terror in your holidays -- a brand that even a visit from the in-laws can’t provide -- you may want to consider viewing these memorable episodes from horror TV history.

There are many great Christmas themed tales in horror-TV history, from The Twilight Zone’s (1959 – 1964) “Night of the Meek” to Night Gallery’s (1969 – 1973) “The Messiah on Mott Street.”  In fact, the best Christmas-themed story of all might very well be Millennium’s (1996 – 1999) “Midnight of the Century.”

But the subject here isn’t a heart-warming tale of the season, but pure holiday terror.  With that thought in mind, here are five creepy-as-hell Christmas stories.

Happy Holidays!"
