The Great Thaw stole winter for three years – and in that time the world changed.

Before then, Saint Nick rewarded the good while Belsnickel corrected the bad, keeping the world in balance. But when the winters vanished, so did Belsnickel… and mischief flourished.

Ben makes a discovery.

Belsnickel isn’t here to judge.

He’s here to punish.
