The Ghouls: “Will We Even Have a Christmas Time?”

Santa has an online gambling addiction. The Ghouls craft a narrative that runs counter to the image of Xmas’ fat and jolly and wholesome patron saint. But if you’re going to give Santa a gambling vice, it makes sense that it’s online. Because he’s stuck all the way up in the North Pole, and could you really picture him settling into a room full of slot machines for a six-hour stretch, straddling a popcorn bucket full of quarters? Mrs. Claus would never. #xmas4eva #elves4lyfe
