The Magic of Christmas

The Magic of Christmas -

The elves of the North Pole get sick and become zombies. The work force dwindles, and the healthy elves struggle to make all the presents needed for Christmas to go on.

Depressed and determined, Santa pushes on to deliver presents to the world, but when a zombie-elf who has hidden in the sleigh bites him, all may be lost.

With just one bag of toys left to deliver to foster children, Santa makes a hard decision; he leaves the toys with someone he knows will deliver them and heads home, not knowing that the North Pole is in the midst of a war for survival.

Will the Magic of Christmas be enough to save Santa and the North Pole?

The Power of a Gift -

The Perez family -- having delivered the foster children's toys for Santa the previous year -- has been invited to visit the North Pole as a 'thank you'.

While they're there, a stray zombie-elf bites the mother and daughter and they become zombies themselves. Now it's up to the father to use the Power of a Gift to set them free from their curse and be human once again.

Will he be able to save his family?
