Father Christmas is gonna do some serious slaying this yuletide season when his archenemy Krampus comes to town to slaughter naughty children in the RLJ Entertainment anthology A Christmas Horror Story. People named Grant Harvey, Steven Hoban and Brett Sullivan helm the three interconnecting stories.

The trailer is pretty awesome and teases an epic showdown between the jolly fat one and the humbugging demon Krampus. There’s an appearance from William Shatner and zombified elves! A Christmas Horror Story arrives in theaters, VOD, and iTunes on Oct. 2.
