Candy Cain Kills by Brian McAuley

Oh what fun it is to DIE! When Austin’s parents drag him and his little sister Fiona to a remote cottage for Christmas, he’s less than thrilled about the forced bonding exercise. But after learning that their holiday getaway was the site of a horrific crime, this family on the rocks will have to fight for their lives against a legendary killer… because Candy Cain is slashing through the snow with a very long naughty list.

Part of the Killer VHS series of standalone novels from Shortwave Publishing - where movie monsters come to life and old VHS tapes summon long-buried evils. You'll probably survive, as long as you remember to be kind and rewind.
