    • A VERY SCARY CHRISTMAS...
    It's that time of year again! The time when I celebrate Christmas with the terrors from my Steam library and beyond. Except this time, I've decided I want a simple, non-scary Christmas.
    ...Looks like they have other ideas...
    This is my fourth year making a scary Christmas song. In all honestly, the first entry way back in 2018 was made as a bit of a joke project. I would never have dreamed that it'd be received so well or lead to an entire series. I want to thank every one of you who has tuned in each year since this started to see what happens next.
    These are always fun to make, even if it is always a mad rush to get them finished in time. But next year I really want to try some other festive ideas I've been having. So you can consider this a finale to the 'Scary Christmas Saga'. I may return to it someday, further down the line there will be doubtless lots more new characters to wrote about, but for now this is the last one I'll be making. I hope you all enjoy it!
    A huge thank you to my patrons for making this project possible, to Bonecage for his work composing the music and to Lizzy, Paul and Sheax for their help working on the video. I couldn't have done it without you!
    I've got lots of BIG projects planned for next year and I can't wait to get to work on them. Happy holidays everyone, see you in 2022!

    LYRICS:
    Three years ago I wrote a song
    Where a bunch of scary monsters
    Left their games and got along
    To celebrate their Christmas day with me
    Well, what do you know?
    We're three years on
    And since September, well
    The comment section's begged me to go on
    To create a song to inflate the trilogy
    Well, I thought last year
    I was abundantly clear
    When I said in the song
    That I was out of ideas
    I'm done with the fearfully festive
    No, never again
    Now, you may say
    That I'm pretty despicable
    But I made the first one
    Just to be clickable
    Now I'm sick of all the Christmas repetition
    And I'm bucking the trend
    Well, there'll be no more harrowing carolling
    There'll be no villains a-trimming the tree
    And I'm flat out of animatronics
    That I wanna see while I'm having turkey
    I just want the jingle of bells
    Without all the hideous villains as well
    This season I'm seizing my freedom to do something else
    And while Boris and Bendy are probably trendy
    I'm not gonna send them a gift
    I'm Saint Nixing the cryptids and kicking
    Those miserable children right off of the list
    I just want a Christmas for once
    Without all the monsters tagging along
    If you wanted horror
    I'm sorry, you've got the wrong song
    Hang on...
    No, no, hang on, that's a minor chord!
    No, no, we're not doing it!
    This is a normal, happy Christmas song
    I'm not doing it
    Please!
    Oh, God...
    We hear sounds of celebration
    We hear jingling of the bells
    You forgot our invitations
    We guess we'll invite ourselves
    You see, we've grown quite accustomed
    To your horror holidays
    So buddy, now you're stuck with us
    You'll never get away
    We spent the year locked up in here
    Expected to be scary
    We'd never heard of Christmas cheer
    We'd no cause to be merry
    We never got a holiday
    Until you came along
    And we don't get a Christmas
    Unless you write a song
    No, we won't get a Christmas
    Unless you write a song
    I've jacked in this fad
    You can pack up your screams
    I'm done with this madness
    Get back in that screen
    For one day a year we all get to be free
    We won't let you mess with our festivities
    Freddy and Chica are dressing the tree but
    That garland might just be the neck of The Teacher
    Montgomery Gator keeps warm by the hearth
    With Huggy Wuggy round his neck as a scarf
    Whilst we're sure that turkey's the bird you'd prefer
    The chef monkey's serving a more murderous bird
    Lady Dimitrescu pours the festive mulled wine
    Well, it's warm and it's red but tastes slightly of iron
    We never got a holiday until you came along
    And we don't get a Christmas unless you write a song
    Oh, why won't you listen?
    I told you, I'm done
    All this repetition is simply not fun
    I won't make another
    That's final, I'm out
    Oh, don't kid yourself Greg
    You're writing it now
    Crewmates bring gifts and cheer
    Just like they did last year
    Whilst Mono inspects all the gifts round the tree
    956 is handing out ominous candy
    Well, I guess that's a nice change from 173
    Old Leshy kills squirrels outside in the yard
    And uses his camera to make Christmas cards
    Choo-Choo Charles is the most festive engine on rails
    Whilst Spamton's just hyped for the January sales
    Don't you think this is all
    Getting a bit too meta?
    Meta? I hardly know her
    Wait a minute, that kinda works
    Sans! Not at Christmas...
    Swear I'm not ungrateful to all of my fans
    But there's only so many of these I can stand
    I love that you love them
    I honestly do
    But next year, I'd quite like to do something new
    You can't help but buckle to audience pressure
    So we'll get our Christmas forever and ever
    We may all be terrors but you can't escape it
    The scariest monster's the one you created
    Perhaps you'd find these easier if they weren't 6 minutes long
    But we don't get a Christmas unless you write a song
    No, we don't get a Christmas
    We don't get a Christmas
    If you don't write a song

    Having the characters be self-reflective and having their own dialogue with you is actually a pretty good way of keeping it fresh. Not even in a scary way, just their desire to live a normal life is really touching. On the horror side of things, and ours being consumed by his most popular work really is fascinating. It’s part of why we love “I’m sorry John.”

    "We don't get a Christmas, unless you write a song"
    From a story perspective, that is such a somber thought, and as a writer, this is the line that really struck me here. The characters that are written and molded and shaped are only given their joys [and consequently sorrows] from those that interact with them.
    An unfinished story can be seen as characters left in limbo, a song half done at a sudden sour stop.
    There is so much story potential, so many ideas, just on that mere principle;
    And it came from one little line.
    These characters are intended to be of horror. They only get to expierence the joys of the holiday, by those who decide it.
    That being said, for those of you creators out there who like this sort of thing--go make some happy nice things for them so Stupendium can have a break. I don't think he gets hazard pay hosting horrors for Christmas. XD

    Ah. A Stupendium Christmas song. I only started listening a few months ago, but it still feels so satisfying to see this drop. Even if it is your last one, I have loved this whole series and can’t wait to see what comes in the future. And if you do keep doing these, respect. Doing something annually for four years is hard. Just look at the toys to life craze from last decade. Annual things are difficult to maintain.

    Side note, I love how many parts of the song, especially starting around when Stupendium responds to the monsters joining, sound like Fairytale of New York, which is fitting and a Christmastime song that I love.

    Damn, ok this was a lot more emotional than it should have been-
    I always loved your first Christmas horror song, me and my sister were so excited for the next ones. It always felt good to have a sense of nostalgia coming back to our heads, and reminding ourselves of the many other fandoms still existing.
    But, if you really want to end this series, do it.
    Don't listen to the people who pressure you to continue this. Yes, I must admit, it will be heart-breaking to see a piece of my childhood fade again, just like it always had, but this is your channel, your life, and you have control over what you want. We don't get to decide for you unless you ask to.

    Every year I come back around to these sounds because of the fact that I was there when they first came out and still here now. And out of all of them, this one’s by far my favorite. The computer’s voice is great, so is the music itself and structure.
    But as much as I like these songs, I’m glad they’re done with them. I’m happy that Stupendium is able to branch out for the holidays.
    And maybe; just maybe, the line of “We don’t get a Christmas unless you write a song” applies to any Christmas song. A happy ending for both. But that’s wishful thinking, I suppose.

I've pick up the hint that you no longer want to continue this series and may I say, you have my full support. I can understand feeling burnout on a project and how emotionally draining it can be to feel like you need to continue. I know that I'll stop with the pressure to make another. You do what makes you happy.

    I just wanna say, while this series may be ending, it still shows how talented Greg has gotten over the years. The first one, while still a banger, feels more like an appetiser than a main course. And each year the quality on these have improved so much, showing that even when under pressure, you really can still make something and improve on what you’ve built upon.

    Man, its already been a year since this amazing series ended. I just wanted to come back to put out an idea I had. Imagine if a game was made about this idea? It'd be hard to have all these characters in a game without getting slapped around by copyright, but imagine a game where you play as the host of a Christmas party like this. You have to keep everything together and perhaps fulfil the requests and needs of the monstrous guests. Help certain characters get along and prevent conflicts and keep the party going smoothly. There could also be a sanity meter like Stupes mentioned in The Fright Before Christmas. I have no coding skills so don't expect me to come back here and be like, "Hey, I made it!" but I just wanted to share the thought.

Making just another song like the others would have stale, but this added an unexpected note of freshness into the series. Who knows what you'll do next year? An addition to this series or something else entirely, whatever you have ideas for! Or even take a holiday break. Cheers!

Simple, easy, still leaves room for original stuff.
    Just like the song says, you may find these easier if they weren't six minutes long! I think these would do well as shorts.
