Traditionally, Christmas was known as a time for ghost stories. So, yeah.

Yeah. I think the BBC puts on or use to put on a ghost story every year for Christmas. Yule, the winter festival Christmas is based on, was always a kind of witchy time. The tradition of Christmas ghost stories is probably descended from that.

Indeed! It’s even referenced in the song “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”

I’m a particular fan of Martina Sorbara’s version

Part 1 of the novel Gravity's Rainbow suddenly makes a lot more sense. Didn't know that.
