Christmas morning is filled with kids waking their entire family up early to open gifts, all over the world there is joy and excitement as they realize they got the toy they wanted, and they run to eat breakfast with their family. Christmas is a time where family will spend hours together, not where family is murdered together. Welcome to episode four of Christmas and Crime. 

Christmas should be filled with joy and opening gifts with the ones you love, of course with the occasional fight between family members, but for one family that was not the case. They would wake up on Christmas day to see their mother waiting on the couch for them to open presents, but instead of a warm smile, she would only be able to give them a cold dead stare. Welcome to episode three of Christmas and Crime. 

Christmas is usually filled with joy and happiness, not with fear and torture. Kristy Baum went with his siblings to visit his older sister for Christmas one year, but the only thing they got for Christmas was trauma, and the loss of a brother. Welcome to episode two of Christmas and Crime 

Christmas is supposed to be a time of joy and gift giving. Melissa and Alan were no different, they were neighbors that had been on the rocks a couple of times before and didn't always get along, but Melissa decided that she was going to still give him a gift for Christmas, only Alan refused. This would send Melissa into a rage. Welcome to episode one of our seven days of Christmas and Crime.

A  heartbreaking story that makes anybody interested in true crime mad, is finally coming to an end. The authorities just released a name for the boy in the box. This was a cold case from 1957, we had a body, and some gruesome theories, but we didn't have a name, making it almost impossible to find the people responsible, until now. The boy in the box is coming to a close, it's now only a matter of time before this unsolved mystery finally sees its end.

A white creature, ape like, but weirdly humanoid. It is a creature that lives in the snow and freezing areas, that has the personality of a bear, and the hunger of one. If you are caught in its grips it will often eat you, leaving little to no trace. Not only have we never been able to track it down and confirm its existence, we have more and more stories piling up about it every day. Today we talk about the infamous Yeti, or better known as, the abominable snowman. 

If Christmas is a holiday you celebrate, or even know about, you probably have a picture that just popped into your head. A jolly fat man with a white beard holding a list whos being followed by a bunch of tiny green elves. These creatures were created and came from a different origin though. They did not serve a jolly old man, they were originally small creatures who were invisible to the human eye, and liked to cause chaos. 

The butterfly effect is when a small decision can drastically change the outcome of your life. In this creepy pasta we cover a story that is the perfect example of the butterfly effect. A boy turns to the internet to share an insane story that he experienced, and it all could have been changed, if he was never part of the balloon project. -Ft. Rae

The disappearance of Steven Koecher is a very interesting one, most people leave some sort of trail, or evidence behind that something happened, but besides a vehicle that looked like he intended to come back to it, and some cell phone tower pings, we have nothing that points to where Steven disappeared to. He drove himself to Nevada, parked and left his car alone, and hasn't seen sense.

We spent our childhoods being told we were either on the naughty or nice list, that we should watch what we do because otherwise Santa would bring us gifts, but things were a lot different when Krampus was involved. I think if the story of Krampus was around the United States when I grew up there would be less children not caring about ending up on the naughty list, because instead of getting coal, they could have been eaten.
