Amazing collection of Christmas stories...with an evil twist. From good vs evil to the 12 Days of Christmas to a beloved childhood legend, this collection has it all.

I received an Advanced Reader Copy of Once Upon A Twisted Christmas in exchange for an honest review.
4 stars. This was seriously twisted but the writing was good, intriguing and twisted 😂
★ – didn’t like/DNF
★★ – was okay, but I probably won’t look for any sequels
★★★- was good, I’ll likely read the next one
★★★★ – I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was great and I’ll definitely be looking for any sequels
★★★★★ – I loved it so much I’m adding the paperback to my cart right now
Okay, what did Ii just read hahaha This is a series of short Christmas themed stories all with a twist to them. I will say when i read the title and dark Christmas idk I thought maybe romance with a dark twist but no 😂😂 it’s a lot of twisted murders. I wouldn’t mind reading a full novella on most of these but here’s a quick note on each short story:
Krampus is Coming to Town - Rose Alexander: Okay, I'd read a full novel of this. That’s a rather interesting and unique twist to Santa Claus. I like it
My Zombie Girlfriend - Jupiter Dresden: Okay, what did i just read haha you're a guard, your girlfriend is a zombie and you expected her not to slip and bite ya mum? Then at the end? Why do I kinda want more of this?
Holiday Fright in Plain Sight - Grace Nicholas: Jesus fucking Christ he went from 0 to 100000 in like 3.5 seconds flat. From i don’t even kill spiders to flaying someone alive? Wow, talk about breaking point. “Merry. Fucking. Christmas” indeed haha The part I don’t get is why turn them into decorations? Like okay, the killings twisted as they are can kind of maybe be justified but not that.
12 Deaths of Christmas - Cate McKoy: That was messed up. I'd of decked him for that 😂😂 dayum when I read the "Once Upon A Twisted Christmas" title I was thinking a twisted Christmas romance or something given the authors. What we get twisted murders 😂 okay next story..
Frost on my Heart - Dakota Brown: And here’s the romance I was expecting and as usual Dakota’s supernatural twist. I liked the Jack Frost take, and it left me wondering why she had powers. I’d read a full novella of almost every one of these short stories so far.
Psycho Santa - Joseph Gage: I read the title and immediately said “Here we go again” 😂😂 And dayum. This short story an obviously psychiatric patient has escaped and gone on a murder spree dressed as Santa. This short story goes to show, you don’t get between a mother and her child.

Short stories that you didn't see the twists till you were done. These horror themed Christmas stories are something else. Short stories that you didn't see the twists till you were done. These horror themed Christmas stories are something else.
