Synopses & Reviews
On the night before Christmas at the old haunted house, not a creature is stirring, until . . .
"Aroo-roo!" Someone steps on the werewolf and wakes him, but
who? He's blaming the manticore, who's blaming the cat, who's blaming the zombie, who points to the bat. Help! Luckily, dear Santa Mouse knows the perfect solution to calming and quieting all the confusion.
The clever team that created The House That Drac Built puts a fresh and funny spin on Christmas!
