Merry Christmas? Only if there’s blood…
Scrooge has always despised Christmas, but this year, his hatred festers into something much darker.
When the ghost of his tormented business partner drags himself from the grave, Scrooge assumes he has lost his mind—especially when three more ghosts claw their way into his life on Christmas Eve.
As the night unfolds, Scrooge must confront the demons of his past, unaware that something far more sinister is brewing. Those who dare utter the cursed words “Merry Christmas” will pay a horrifying price.
Humbug is a spine-chilling retelling of A Christmas Carol. This story is part of the Twisted Tales of Familiar Faces collection, featuring classic beloved characters who twisted into terrifying nightmares.

This was an absolute thrill! As someone who also isn’t a fan of Christmas, I completely relate to the classic bah humbug attitude of Scrooge. Andre Gonzalez masterfully reimagined this story, transforming it into a delightfully gory horror tale that redefines a beloved classic.
If you’re a horror buff hunting for a spooky spin on an old holiday classic, make sure to add this one to your list, you won’t regret it!
What a fantastic start to the Twisted Tales of Familiar Faces!

I went into this book blind, haven’t even read any books by this author before. Loved the twist on this classic tale about Ebeneazer Scrooge. This book took us on the expected journey with an unexpected twist, my thoughts are still spinning over what I just experienced. I look forward to trying more books by this author and seeing what they have to offer.

A very, very dark, entertaining Scrooge for our modern times. Favorite line: “Hope he gets trampled by a pack of carolers while he’s out spreading his misery.” Extremely entertaining. It’s what I always thought Scrooge was supposed to be, rather than a man whose life is changed for the better by the visiting ghosts.
