=== Part one ===
With the holidays around the corner, the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] proposes going somewhere special to celebrate. While she is quick to agree to [[Team TARDIS]]'s idea of an [[amusement park]], the quartet are flummoxed to find that they all have different memories of the last park they visited and are unable to recall the name of the planet it was on. Flustered, the Doctor simply checks the logs only to find that the TARDIS has no recordings from that day. Suspecting that their memories have not been removed outright, rather that they've been altered, the Doctor follows [[Graham O'Brien|Graham]]'s suggestion to retrace their steps.
 
[[The Doctor's TARDIS|The TARDIS]] materialises on a festive-themed planet populated by knee-high beings. Introducing themselves to one named [[Friffle]], the group learns that they've been here before and that their memories were most likely erased by "Mr. Henderson" before telling them that the first time they came, the populace assumed that Henderson had sent them. Those of [[Friffle's people]] who go to Henderson's world never return, prompting another outraged reaction from Team TARDIS. After confirming that this is only the second time she's made the promise, the Doctor swears to get to the bottom of this.
 
Out of [[Christmas light]]s, the Doctor makes some [[neurological tracker]]s that will detect any memory alterations before the TARDIS lands on a snowy planet decorated with [[Earth]] style architecture. Exploring, the group is surrounded by [[Toy guard (Holiday Special)|toy guards]] before what appears to be [[Santa Claus]] arrives. Recognising that this alleged Santa is the Henderson that Friffle mentioned, the group is taken to a holding cell. When [[Ryan Sinclair|Ryan]] taunts the guard by comparing Henderson to Santa, the guard insists that Santa is a monster.
 
Sniffing the cell, the Doctor confirms that they've been here before a guard greets them.
 
=== Part two ===
After the guard confirms that the group is who they seem to be, he steps forward and introduces himself as [[Baxter (Holiday Special)|Baxter]], having been sent by "Jeff." Using his [[candy cane]], the [[elf]] frees the group and guides them to Friffle's people, now reduced to forced labour making toys. As the group watches, [[Yasmin Khan|Yaz]]'s lights flash, indicating a memory rewrite but the Doctor doesn't think the glow is bright enough. Realising that the workers' memories are being affected, the group suspects that they tried to free the workers last time and had their own memories rewritten as a result. After the group overhears a mention of "cold fusion", Baxter leads the group to the main control room.
 
Arriving in a rather Christmas style office, the group finds Santa suits and the Naughty or Nice list but Baxter assures them that this isn't Santa. As someone enters, the group hides in a closet. When Henderson enters, they sheds their disguise to reveal that she's [[Krampus (mythology)|Krampus]], an "anti-Santa" that feeds on the primal fears of children.
 
Following, the Doctor recongises Krampus' "cold fusion" device as a hybrid teleporter and psychic energy collector through which her minions will harvest fear. Unable to approach directly, lest their memories be written, the Doctor dons her fez as a psychic safeguard while having her companions adjust the machine.
 
Using [[The Doctor's sonic screwdriver|the sonic screwdriver]], the companions free the slaves while the Doctor sabotages the machine, trapping Krampus and her minions in a wormhole. As both species of slaves pick themselves up, the Doctor promises to explain everything over [[Christmas]] dinner.
 
As they dine, Yaz questions, if Krampus exists, then does Santa? Coyly, the Doctor denies to answer but does place an offering in the snow for an old friend.

Holiday Special was the story published in the Doctor Who: The Thirteenth Doctor Holiday Special comic series.

It is the first full Christmas-themed story to star both the Thirteenth Doctor and her companions (although she had previously appeared alone in the shorter Christmas story 'Twas the Night Before Christmas). Notably, it established that the events of the Free Comic Book Day 2019 story, Meet the Fam!, were in fact a false memory implanted by the story's main villain, Krampus.

It also tied into the brief mention in A Christmas Carol of the Doctor's being friends with Santa Claus and knowing him as "Jeff".

Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

Part one[[edit] | [edit source]]

There’s no BBC Christmas Special this year – so we’re bringing it to you in comic form! Can the Doctor save Christmas? Is Santa a myth, a man, or a Time Lord? Are chimneys bigger on the inside?

Part two[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor and her companions save Christmas from a contemptible coup by the cantankerous Krampus! But is everyone’s favorite Time Lord listed under ‘Naughty’… or ‘Nice’? The second half of a fun, festive sci-fi story from Jody Houser.

Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]

Part one[[edit] | [edit source]]

With the holidays around the corner, the Thirteenth Doctor proposes going somewhere special to celebrate. While she is quick to agree to Team TARDIS's idea of an amusement park, the quartet are flummoxed to find that they all have different memories of the last park they visited and are unable to recall the name of the planet it was on. Flustered, the Doctor simply checks the logs only to find that the TARDIS has no recordings from that day. Suspecting that their memories have not been removed outright, rather that they've been altered, the Doctor follows Graham's suggestion to retrace their steps.

The TARDIS materialises on a festive-themed planet populated by knee-high beings. Introducing themselves to one named Friffle, the group learns that they've been here before and that their memories were most likely erased by "Mr. Henderson" before telling them that the first time they came, the populace assumed that Henderson had sent them. Those of Friffle's people who go to Henderson's world never return, prompting another outraged reaction from Team TARDIS. After confirming that this is only the second time she's made the promise, the Doctor swears to get to the bottom of this.

Out of Christmas lights, the Doctor makes some neurological trackers that will detect any memory alterations before the TARDIS lands on a snowy planet decorated with Earth style architecture. Exploring, the group is surrounded by toy guards before what appears to be Santa Claus arrives. Recognising that this alleged Santa is the Henderson that Friffle mentioned, the group is taken to a holding cell. When Ryan taunts the guard by comparing Henderson to Santa, the guard insists that Santa is a monster.

Sniffing the cell, the Doctor confirms that they've been here before a guard greets them.

After the guard confirms that the group is who they seem to be, he steps forward and introduces himself as Baxter, having been sent by "Jeff."
