Merry Crypt-mas

 

 
Above, a frame from HBO's
Tales from the Crypt's Xmas show.
 
"Very few holiday shows come with a parental advisory warning 
over violent content. That changed in 1989, when HBO debuted And All Through the House, an episode of Tales From the Crypt in which a psychopathic Santa Claus wields an axe and terrorizes a single mother on Christmas Eve. 
 
"In true Crypt fashion, the protagonist is single because she just murdered her husband with a fireplace poker... "
 
You know the line
"not a creature was heard?"
 
Yeah, right.
