About

As the title suggests, we are looking for stories which combine psychopaths and other lunatics with Christmas. Your psychopath/lunatic can be human or supernatural, and based on legend or fact in any period of history. Any genre is considered, though we suspect this anthology will appeal to writers of horror, comedy, SF and fantasy. We are looking for new and original twists on this theme with surprising elements. Be fun, be serious, but most of all be unique.
