The Sleigh Bell Murders

---

We see the sprawling barn across the highway. From the white-columned porch of the old house. See the barn closed up tight against the cold,. As Charlie crosses the road to do his chores. The roosters shriek their morning alarm, the big. Doors creak open on the darkness—a darkness. Slit with tight-strung wires of light knifing.

Through cracks between the boards of the east wall. Tufts of hay spill from cribs on both sides. The waiting cattle stir and low as daylight. Breaks in on the darkness. A battered Rath Blackhawk lard can swinging. He hears the verses harnessed to his whistling,. The tune drawing its text along march tempo: And then all changes. Smash of the blackjack. Of fire-veined shock that flies to the far corners. Four assailants leap from the back.

The bandits duck and climb inside their own. Tires screech, the driver slams onto the highway,. A smile and wink all round as they drive north. The sun is coming up when they. He is dragged to the railing, lifted, then heaved over.

Below the surface of the floating ice. Five miles back along the highway, the dark.

Barn, the herd, a crushed tin pail, and signs. To see them, then whip aside with a shout of terror. Ashore just south of Bradford, still tied up. It happened I was on the road that morning. Well, I was driving home like Merry Christmas.

And then I noticed the car. Occurred to me right then that something might. I should have stopped. They might have banged me on the head, but then—. He laughs a low laugh that would chill the devil. Then takes up the thread—how when he heard the news. By nightfall Calvin Renfrew and Norbert Joiner,. We secretly hate, then give them secret help.

When they get their paws burned in the process. Lord help me, the whole county took the side. Of those arrested against the murdered man. They said old Charlie had it coming to him,. Carroll had quietly slipped across the border. If words could put you under ground, why Carroll. Was dead and buried six times over, a martyr.

Who should have been taken care of years ago. These are churchgoing people, too, but they.

Meanwhile, if you can say the things people. He folds his hands and brings them to his chin. Before for a capital offense in this state. Was dear to their concerns. But then, you see, they started next.

State trooper drops by to ask some questions. Why was I on the highway that time of morning? Stayed the night, did he? I play a little pipe. Nobody thought it mattered much beforehand,. Got out, my friends, well, you can just imagine. Get tarred and feathered.

My patients, some of them,. Began to melt away like ice cream. I wondered whether I should move, of course;. Some rowdy threw a can of paint at the house;. I still get unsigned letters from time to time. Things must be better where you two come from. No more today, though. Out under the black trees of late March, down. Thunder of engines takes him off. Stay lodged in us like arrows, arrows aimed. Somehow to warn or counsel.

Reprieves as well—along with persons, places,. Today, for instance, how. New green on branches and a liquid birdcall. Steve, in turn, is shattered emotionally and swears never to pick up a weapon again. Meanwhile, Roger goes off in search of the strongest whiskey possible and he is directed to a moonshiner in the Chimdale Mountains, named Bob Todd, who teaches him his ways.

Stan dismisses this and doesn't investigate further. Francine quickly discovers the body, and as the family buries the body; she chastises them for not letting her cut off the hands and smash the teeth out; much to their chagrin. The next day they receive threatening letters, stating that someone knows what they did and that they will be punished. They watch the news and discover that no one really feels like it is Christmas, as if someone killed Santa.

Feeling a little doubt they then dig up the body and discover it is gone. When an elf appears and tells them that it was actually the real Santa that they buried and that he was recovered and rejuvenated in a Star Wars Bacta Tank at the North Pole and vows vengeance on the Smiths, they decide to take refuge with Roger in the moonshiner's cabin where Bob Todd lives. Jeff arrives to spend the holiday with Hayley , much to Stan's displeasure. However, Santa soon arrives since Jeff wrote a letter telling him where they would be staying.

Bob Todd reveals that his airplane-house is also an armory, which includes an M60 machine gun, two RPKs and an M16 assault rifle, to fend off an attack of endless waves of armed elves, flying reindeer, and an enormous snowman reminiscent of a Cave Troll from Lord Of The Rings led by Santa. Francine snaps Steve out of his fears, ordering him to "pick up a gun this instant and send these toy makers to Hell! Santa tries to convince Jeff to abandon the Smiths, recognizing that he was not involved in their plot to hide his body, and by offering a relic from The Golden Compass.

Jeff walks to Santa's side, but then turns on him and is able to pull Stan who was injured to safety. While Jeff takes care of Stan; Jeff says he thinks Stan is an ass. But, the two agree on their love for Hayley, causing Stan to see Jeff as a true member of the family. The family is almost overrun, until Santa and his army are forced to retreat because they only had until Christmas morning to get vengeance.

Santa disappears, leaving behind a letter warning them that he will return next year to take his revenge and kill them, while the Smith family realizes that they have found a new Christmas tradition.

It was just which movie were we going to model it after. Louis Post-Dispatch wrote, "not much can really be said about the episode except that it includes a mass slaughter of elves. The episode contains several pop culture references. The action sequence and bloody themes were slightly modeled after the film The Fellowship of the Ring. The elves are wrangling Frosty in with a collar and chains almost exactly like the scene from Fellowship. It was viewed by 6.
