Short Trips: The Ghosts of Christmas was the twenty-second Short Trips anthology published by Big Finish Productions.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
Christmas. A time for home. For family. For laughter...
Everybody has special memories of Christmas but for others it brings shadows of things that should not have been. Unearthly visitors who open their eyes to new worlds and new experiences. Pantomime coats, robot dogs and a big blue box parked beneath the Christmas tree.
Some think these fleeting guests are apparitions. Some think they are angels. Some think they are demons. But all know that Christmas will never be the same again.
The Doctor and his companions travel to Christmas Past, Christmas Present and those Christmases Yet to Come. They bring festive laughter and Yuletide joy, creeping dread and screaming horror, slipping in and out of time like the ghosts of Christmas...
Christmas. A time for terror. For fear. For ghosts...
