Oni Press hasn\u2019t yet published their holiday horror comic book Yuletide but Deadline<\/a> reports that Gale Anne Hurd\u2019s Valhalla Entertainment has already picked it up for film adaptation.<\/p>\n

Yuletide will debut on comic book shelves in October 2025 from Oni Press.<\/p>\n

The upcoming comic book comes from writer\u00a0George Northy\u00a0(EC\u2019s\u00a0Shiver SuspenStories) and artist\u00a0Rachele Aragno\u00a0(Mike Mignola\u2019s\u00a0Leonide the Vampire).<\/p>\n

Deadline details, \u201cthe comic is described as a fast-paced family adventure in the tradition of\u00a0The Goonies,\u00a0Goosebumps, and\u00a0Hocus Pocus with a horrifying holiday twist.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the story, ancient Norse creatures are let loose upon an idyllic Northeastern town at the height of the gift-giving season \u2014 and only three teenagers are capable of holding them at bay with an ancient secret tied to the origins of the holiday itself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a longer official synopsis for Yuletide:<\/p>\n

\u201cWelcome to the small town of Christmas, Pennsylvania \u2013 the merriest place on Earth\u2026 or so they\u2019d like everyone to think. When December rolls around, these folks pull out all the stops for America\u2019s biggest, brightest holiday display \u2014 but not everyone in Christmas, PA, is so enthusiastic.<\/p>\n

\u201cTeenagers Jake, Abe, and Wyn are more interested in the dark side of the holiday that their parents like to pretend doesn\u2019t exist \u2014 the ancient legends of mythic monsters and pagan pandemonium that are deeply tied to the festival\u2019s long-forgotten origins. So when their hobby leads them to an abandoned wing of the local Christmas museum to investigate, they\u2019ll discover an ancient relic that, when activated, will bring a furious procession of yuletide horrors long since banished from our plane.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd with it, a darkness that has been waiting centuries for its chance to overtake the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

George Northy will be writing the feature film adaptation.<\/p>\n
