You'll be slashing through the snow in a super
sequel to the original "Slay
Ride" by the same authors who committed the original. This time,
Santa has double-jeopardy with a hostile take-over brewing and a serial
killer on the loose.
There is nothing silent about this night!

Above: Original Cast
Christmas is in jeopardy as Santa Claus faces two of the biggest challenges
to his career. Not only does he face a hostile takeover of the North Pole,
but a mysterious serial killer threatens to do away with all his reindeer
and elves.

Frosty, Elfish, Santa and Mrs. Claus
Bert Furioli and Butch Maxwell, who wrote the original, have taken the
charge of writing a sequel almost seriously. And when you think of sequels,
particularly in the line of murder, you think of that pop culture standard:
Slasher movies. No one does sequels as often as the people who made movies
such as "Halloween" or "Nightmare on Elm Street."
So here is a parody the format.
The result is a darkly funny tale of a Santa stalker compounded with a corporate
takeover plot. It is laced with references to horror movies as well as seasonal
humor and sprinkled with a few Christmas song send-ups.
You don't have to know anything about horror movies to enjoy the show. It
is all broad, silly stuff that should appeal to anyone except perhaps children
under 12.
Returning from the original story are the beleaguered Santa
Claus (played by Frank
Wilson as seen below, or understudy Gino
Angelo or Dustin Heavilin in 2012.)
![[The Claus ]](claust_1.jpg)
...his socialite wife, who is champion of liberal causes,
such as a movement to "save the icebergs." Mrs. Claus is portrayed
by Vera Barton-Caro(below)
or understudy Arlene
Merryman or Shannan Noe in 2012.
![[Mrs. C.]](mrscx.jpg)
...and his chief elf, the nebbish efficiency expert who knows
just a little too much about teen slasher movies, Elfish Prezley (Katie Crosbie, pictured
below, or Dee
McCorkle or Ryan Sears in 2012).

New characters this year are the sinister millionaire Cooper
DeVille (Larry
Carlisle as seen below, or P.D.
Gregg or Butch Maxwell in 2012)...
![[Deville]](deville2.jpg)
...and Santa's lawyer, Frosty D. Snowman (Butch
Maxwell or Bert Furioli in 2000 and 2012)... Yeah, Frosty lost a lot of weight after last year's mild
winter.
