Fairies like cookies.  And have power over life and death.

Santa knows this, and respects this consistently.  However, one Christmas Eve, he makes a cookie date with the Fairy Snow Queen, and stands her up.

Yes, he's a married man, and whatever happens, he had coming.

However, the playthings of his workshop find themselves the unwitting benefactors of St. Nick's indescretion.  They find themselves brought to life!  They sing!  They dance!  They love!

They annoy.  Oh, how they annoy.

Will Kris Kringle be able to set the universe back into balance, and save Christmas for all the little boys and girls?

Yep, he kills 'em.  Kills 'em dead.
