圣诞老人：本期节目中，圣诞老人将分享更多恐怖故事，包括Laura Pauling创作的《雪人夜》和来自14岁英国女孩Lydia的《回忆死亡》。故事讲述了阿尔萨斯和洛林地区的传说人物汉斯·特拉普，他是圣诞老人的邪恶对应物，会惩罚顽皮的孩子。汉斯·特拉普的故事讲述了他邪恶的一生，最终被闪电击毙，并被诅咒在每个圣诞节与圣诞老人一起游荡，吓唬顽皮的孩子。 Lydia的故事讲述了她死后成为鬼魂的经历，她不记得生前的事，只记得被杀害的场景，并描述了她死后犯下的可怕罪行以及最终回忆起爱人的故事。故事开始于阴森恐怖的氛围，但最终以一个令人欣慰的结局结束。 Lydia: 我在去世几个月后才获得平静。我是那些不幸的鬼魂之一，无法回忆起死前的生命。这通常是因为死亡过于暴力。如果生前是一个马虎的人，死后很可能也是个马虎鬼。不幸的是，我唯一记得的关于我生命的事情就是我的死亡。我记得在一个房子里……橡木家具很旧，宏伟，而且有点险恶。我能听到自己在黑暗中喘息的声音。阴影在墙上跳动，月亮照亮了我纤细的轮廓。我躲在一张优雅的躺椅下面，默默地祈祷上帝。即使对我来说，我在不自然的安静房间里的粗重呼吸声也显得太大了。我趴在那里几分钟。过了一会儿，我的呼吸开始慢了下来。我感到身体放松了，开始背靠着墙。我躺了一会儿，现实就崩溃了，我意识到墙是软的，它正试图用胳膊搂住我。当我开始向前猛拉时，胳膊紧紧地搂住了我的腰，把我拉了回去。冰冷无情的笑声离我的耳朵很近，我感到一阵微风轻轻地吹在我的右脸颊上。我记得在挣扎，我记得那种绝望和孤立的感觉，因为我意识到，无论我多么努力地挣扎，我在地球上的最后时刻都不会被爱的人抱着，而是在一个无情、残忍的怪物的怀抱中。无论你做什么，都不要相信那些说鬼魂是为他们的死亡寻求正义的受困灵魂的故事。我的凶手被发现是隔壁邻居的儿子。我亲眼看着他被终身监禁，面对哭泣的陪审团。不，我仍然在这里，因为我已经忘记了爱是什么。当你死的时候，你的感觉也随之死去。我以我以前自我的冰冷而残酷的外壳回来了。自从死了以后，我已经犯下了一些可怕的行为。但我正在寻找我问题的答案。在他怀里的时候，我在想爱的人。他们是谁？白天，我会在公园里四处游荡寻找受害者。我意识到孩子们是唯一能看到我的人。我利用这一点来接近他们。然后，当我把他们解决掉时，我会沉溺于他们的恐惧和绝望之中。我知道我身体里还残留着一丝人性的唯一方法是，无论我杀了多少人，我都无法直视他们的眼睛。我知道这是懦弱的。我夺走了他们的生命。我至少可以给他们一个眼神交流的礼貌。我的杀手直视着我的眼睛，在我生命从我的眼中消失时微笑着。我从来不知道为什么，但我做不到。在当地的公园里，我看到一个有魅力的男人带着两个孩子走来走去。因为我不看人们的眼睛，所以我学会了从肢体语言中解读情绪。这个男人心碎了。他的肩膀塌陷了。他的皮肤苍白。呼吸急促，好像他一直在努力克制哭泣的冲动。从他握着女孩的手的方式，我可以看出他之所以能坚持下去，只是因为她们。我能看到汗水在他手指之间闪闪发光，他紧张地用手擦拭裤子。这两个女孩不能再不同了。一个苍白而黑发，另一个金发碧眼。这两个对我来说很合适。我已经想象到用我的双手撕开他们的肉，听到他们尖叫，就像我一样，在我下面。我跟踪着这三个人，他们漫无目的地沿着小路走着。通常情况下，我会试图把孩子们从他们的父母身边带走，但今天不会。这个人离崩溃的边缘如此之近，我想看看他的脸，当他的孩子们被撕成碎片时。最后，他们转过一个弯，到达了一片荒凉的草地。我准备好了。我走近那两个女孩，当她们跑上来拥抱我的时候，我非常震惊。当我到达的时候，我有许多反应。恐惧和困惑，但从没有快乐。她们跑着尖叫着，喊着，“穆西！穆西！”男人一听到这个，头就猛地抬了起来。在我抬起头的那一刻，我不禁看着他的眼睛。在他的美丽的深色瞳孔中燃烧着一种原始的损失。他的痛苦是如此明显和深刻，驱散了我心中所有杀戮的想法。我只是想永远凝视着他的眼睛，但不是看着我，而是透过我。“女孩们！”他咆哮道。“我们已经谈过这个了！”女孩们慢慢地开始跟着他离开公园，但她们无法阻止自己回头看着我。我朝她们笑了笑，挥了挥手，泪水不受控制地从我苍白超凡脱俗的脸颊上流了下来。我终于想起了我的丈夫和我的女儿们。当我感到这股爱涌过我时，我感到自己离开了，离开了我的爱人。但这并不是一件坏事，因为我记得我可以再次爱了。圣诞老人：故事的最后，圣诞老人讲述了Laura Pauling创作的《雪人夜》，讲述了一群孩子在圣诞夜与雪人战斗的故事，最终用热可可融化了雪人的冰冷之心。孩子们用各种武器与雪人战斗，最终在热可可的温暖下，雪人记起了爱，恢复了善良。
