Nicholas, a Lycian priest in 343 AD, pursues a legendary child-hunting satyr named Krampus into the depths of Hades and sacrifices his own life to save the souls of hundreds of children... who become his elves when he is resurrected as the Santa Claus! 

SYNOPSIS:

It has been nearly 50 years since Krampus has been seen; he has almost drifted into legend... almost. Although Nicholas has been a faithful priest all of these years, he remains scarred from the loss of his own son. Now that Nicholas is in his latter years, Krampus strikes again and begins taking more naughty children. Nicholas knows he must do something to stop this damnable creature, but what can an old man do?

Nicholas avoids the confrontation, knowing that he couldn’t even save his own son. But even as he runs from destiny, he is reminded that Krampus has no power over him. He realizes that he is the only one who can bring hope to a hopeless community and save the children from evil’s grip. With renewed hope, Nicholas rallies the townsfolk and they devise a plan to capture Krampus. After all, he is the shepherd of his flock and now they need him more than ever. But a fight with evil always comes at great cost.

Nicholas chases Krampus into the Lycian tombs and finds his hidden lair. There, he discovers the magical portal that leads to Hades and sees hundreds of children enslaved there! Armed with a sense of purpose and the hope to save his son, Nicholas charges through the portal and sacrifices his own life for the sake of the children... or so it seems.

With ultimate sacrifice comes new life! The children are reanimated as elves when Nicholas is resurrected as the Santa Claus and now they bless the children of the world every year on Christmas day, by giving them a gift to remind them of God’s great love for them!
