Santa Was A Cult Leader
Ho! Ho! Ho! This week on Cult Liter we’re talking about Mnason Huntsman, well that was one of his names, and how the Santa-esque muse kept the Christ in Christmas. A truly bizarre tale from beginning to end, and a face you won’t forget. You better watch out…you better not cry…you better not pout…I’m telling you why, Santa Claus is startinnnnnng a cult.
