Likeable 6th grader Liam writes to Santa asking him to prove that he's real. But Liam is dyslexic and accidentally sends his letter to Satan instead, who shows up at Liam's house, excited to have his first fanboy letter and wanting a little of Liam's soul.
Editor's Verdict
"The plot revolves around a letter to Santa Claus, which is a core Christmas tradition, and the element of Satan taking Santa's place strongly suggests a Christmas setting where the swap has significant narrative weight. While the core conflict involves a deal with Satan, the catalyst and central figures (Santa/Satan) tie it firmly to the holiday. This pushes it beyond 'adjacent' but keeps it shy of a traditional 'YES' due to the dominant dark/fantasy theme."
