All Danny Robinson wants for Christmas is a drone to help make his first horror movie. He has a few friends who can join him if they survive the holiday season. What Satan's general wants is a way to bring her army to Earth. But is Christmas the best time for world domination? What Santa wants is a new Mrs. Claus. Some of that old bedroom magic's gotten a little mundane, and her elf pot pie isn't as good as it used to be. Can Danny get his drone, or will Satan run free? And will Santa be able to save Christmas or be stuck with the same old pie?

I had the absolute pleasure of getting to arc read this, and I loved it! This was such a fun read, I couldn't put it down! Splatterpunk at its best! Obviously, check your triggers if you must, but if you can, go into this as blind as possible and enjoy the ride!
"Father Christmas’s arm moved faster than the smaller being could see. The back of his hand smashed into Eli’s jaw to the sound of cracks through tooth and bone, and the elf soared through the air."
The fourth installment in the Custer Falls series and this one was the best by far. It was disgusting in all the right ways and I absolutely devoured this in one sitting. Thank you to the author for sending me an ARC of this one, and also thank you for ruining Christmas.
Are you ready for the newest story from Custer Falls???
This book will easily take you on one of the most bloody and vile yet devishly good rides of your life! This Santa is NOT the Ol Jolly St Nick we grew up with.Prepare to have your childhood absolutely wrecked by D.W. Hitz.
It’s Christmas time in Custer Falls and Hitz is ready to deck the halls with blood, guts, and all the creepy crawlies you can imagine. This might be the bloodiest and goriest book Hitz has written so far. Just when I think he’s reached his peak, he comes back with even more and unpacks the carnage right in the reader’s lap. Several gag worthy moments for me in this one, and I feel like the author holds nothing back with the descriptions.
Santa Vs Satan is a wild ride for sure. We see the dark side of Santa, the nasty side of Bazamere and so much depravity. If some of your senses aren’t violated after reading this, something is wrong. This should be on every extreme horror lover’s list. It’s a must-read for the holidays!
Welcome to Custer Falls, Montana. It’s Christmas time and ten year year old Danny needs help from Santa to acquire a desired present. Meanwhile…Santa and Mrs. Clause begin preparations for the holidays by staffing their sweatshop with expendable elves. Meanwhile…the summoning of a demon located in a church basement has successfully transpired. What does all this mean?…The fight for magic and power has begun in a little known town called Custer Falls.
Lord forgive me for what I am about to deem a must read for the holidays. I mean, who doesn’t like a festive narrative of twinkling lights, gleaming ornaments, candy canes and devil worshipping sacrifices. D.W. Hitz chronicles his Yuletide cheer with sticky slimy sounds of dismembered merriment. Just a bit of warning, these “Hitz” gifts of gore contain discomforting depictions of sexual satan swingers, heinous transforming creatures and the act of grinding up tiny magical elves specifically used for reindeer food. It’s pretty much violate or be violated…it’s a two-way street ya know.
D.W. Hitz has maintained an unholy marriage with splatter / extreme fiction. Heck, he even took home a Splatterpunk award partnering with the one and only Candace Nola for Camp Slasher Lake, Volume One. The man knows how to write horror! But let’s get back to the candlelit pentagrams and goat legged monsters shall we?
Santa vs Satan is basically an offering of creepy cookies and a macabre glass of milk. Custer Falls mystique showcases why this location seems to be cursed with a plethora of supernatural events…what I’m sayin is Custer Falls, Montana is the new Derry, Maine. Santa vs Satan has earned itself a permanent spot on the naughty list as well as a worthy Ho Ho Ho-rror Bookworm Recommendation.
Can there be the perfect splatterpunk Christmas horror? Taking that good old Christmas cheer and throwing it into the meat grinder, producing a fine mushy texture of too much blood and guts? Well, here you go: D.W. Hitz’s ‘Santa Vs. Satan,’ his fourth standalone entry in his Custer Falls series of extreme horror stories, is the metaphorical meta-chopper for all things Christmasy! Nothing and no one is spared: this jolly Santa is NOT your friend, though he’ll give your children presents; in this year’s celebrations supernatural entities will definitely NOT spread peace; and you really DON’T want to be around when the jingle bells start jingling!
Hitz has come up with a complex story unlike anything found in his previous books: a tale equally well-written and fast-paced, superbly plotted and full of intriguing characters, but, shockingly, even more depraved and extreme than anything he��s written before: he’s turned every Christmas symbol into its most corrupted version imaginable, he thought up an incredibly entertaining story (yes, the book is definitely a page-turner!), and simmered it all with the most vile images of evil you’re going to find.
Joking aside, the visuals in this book are STUNNING! The demons, the hellish and sinful situations, the body horror, the battles (yes, there is an epic battle narrated in terrific cinematic prose!), the rituals, the monsters – whether you like extreme horror or not, in Hitz’s book you’re going to find what demonic, supernatural evil, if it exists, really means: any portrayal of demons after that will seem utterly artless and simplistic in comparison! What an achievement!
D.W. Hitz has simultaneously ruined my childhood and my version of Santa and provided another wildly entertaining installment in the Custer Falls series, a place where no one in their right mind would want to live.
The book opens with 10-year-old Danny, who wants nothing more for Christmas than a drone to make his very own horror movie. When he and his friends defile a church that is under construction, it becomes clear that Christmas will be a little different for Danny and his friends this year.
Danny’s older cousin Sandra, who sees herself as both a witch and temptress, is tricked by her boyfriend and his friends into participating in a Satanic ritual. Sandra was messed up before this encounter, but after? Whew.
The gore, violence, and sex was non-stop, and the interchanging storylines between the demonic activity going on in the town and the storyline of an utterly sadistic Santa blended seamlessly.
A big thank you to the author for this ARC. SANTA VS. SATAN will publish November 3, 2023.
This is book 4 in the Custer Falls extreme horror series, all are stand alones based in and around Custer Falls, and all are brilliantly, brutally, messed up and so much gruesome fun! This one is particularly perfect for the festive season, if youre prepared to have all your previous images of Santa ripped from your mind and replaced with utter depravity and horrifyingly erotic imprints in their place that is!!
Danny is 10 years old, and more excited for Xmas than he's ever been! The anticipation is high for his most wished for gift to arrive on Xmas morning. He loves horror. All kinds of horror, including extreme amd splatterpunk, and he wants to make his own horror movies, which is why he has asked Santa for a drone camera, he thinks it will make for some great horror footage. If only it had arrived in time for the real horrors that Danny and his friends and family are about to face….
Whilst waiting for her boyfriend at his friends house, Sandra is coerced into the basement, where she is welcomed into their group, and its one Hell of a welcome! She comes away from the meeting with a new roommate too, and a whole new outlook on life, love….and death!
Meanwhile, Santa's elves arent being very helpful and they are behind schedule. This does not make for a happy Santa, and he lets them know just how unhappy this makes him, in the most brutal and unforgiving ways. Eventually things look like theyre getting back on track and as he gets ready to deliver all his gifts, he cant help his mind wandering to the idea of a sexy new Mrs Santa. But where the hell is he going to find her on Xmas eve?
When Danny and his friends end up on a construction site, they notice a strange shaped room, and feeling scared, they try to demolish it, sensing something bad will happen if they dont! But, of course, its too late, whatever it is, is accidentally unleashed and Zach and Jay end up bearing the brunt of it, initially anyway! It changes them, hugely, but not everyone notices at first, not until its too late. Each of them experience different lasting effects, and an insatiable hunger, in their own horrific ways. They are, all of them, being prepped for the ultimate climax of debauched festive evil. Including Sandra, who is returning with her parents, to Custer Falls to spend the holidays with her Aunt and Uncle. She feels different though, changed somehow.. and she begins to revel in that change.
When Santa finally reaches the town of Custer Falls, theres a lot more waiting there for him than just bad milk and cookies. SO much more….
A tale of two halves, combining and concluding in a bizarre, horrific, downright depraved and disturbing climax!! There are a few 'magical' elements to this book in amongst the gore and depravity, if you count the recipe for the Sap of Eternity, amongst others, as magical for example! 😉 Otherwise its rammed full of fear, hatred, debauchery, depravity, blood, guts, demons, semen, and pretty much every other disgusting fluid. I loved all the little easter eggs strewn throughout from the other books too!
An insanely, ingenious sleigh-ride through a chaotic, crazy, carnage saturated christmas!! Ho-Ho-Bloody-Ho!! 🧑🎄
Santa vs. Satan is the fourth installment in the Custer Falls Extreme Horror series, and will definitely take you on a bloody and depraved ride, one from which you will never view Santa Claus the same way again. I have not read the previous books in this series, but it didn't seem to matter as I had no trouble understanding what was happening.
For such a short book, this was a complex story, well-written, fast-paced, full of fascinating characters, and a fantastic plot. At first, I had no idea how the characters connected to each other, but as the book progressed, it all made sense. Because the story focuses a lot on body horror as well as graphic sex, the story does revolve around some pretty depraved and graphic descriptions around different scenarios involving all the characters, including Santa. So many vile images that will take a while to get out of my head.
I don't think I've ever read a book with such a vile Santa before, one who is looking for a new Mrs. Claus, and who brutalizes his elves and other workers with such ease and contempt. And poor Danny, all he wanted was a drone so he could film an amateur horror film with his friends, but got caught up in the depravity because he went where he should not have gone, against his instincts. If there is a lesson in this story, don't go where you should not go and if it's glowing and it looks like a pentagram, stay the hell out.
Santa vs. Satan has definitely ruined by childhood version of Santa, but this was such a fun and twisted read. The dual story lines blended seamlessly, coming together in an epic showdown that I couldn't even guess the resolution, with supernatural elements, rituals, monsters, and a conclusion I loved, made this a book you will want to read if you love extreme horror. I have read worse when it comes to extreme, but it was the writing style that made it so epic.
This is the next book in The Custer Falls series. I thought You're Going to Die in Here was insane, but this one is definitely crazier. I loved it! This book is a great way to start the holiday season.
This book is incredible! It’s definitely my second favorite book in this series. This book was so damn gory and extremely fucked up but I loved every single bit of it.
I will read this every December to get in the Christmas spirit! It was gross, shocking and ruined the way I will look at any Santa. Extreme gore and triggers galore so beware!
I just finished the book as an ARC read and loved it!! I loved how the characters were introduced and then brought together but then still all experienced their own story but it all went together so smoothly. The story itself was something else 😆 but that’s what I loved about it. It made me see Santa and Christmas in a way I never imagined lol and the gore and visuals and everything, it was a great read definitely something I will recommend!!
Wow what a sick and twisted book. This right here is one gruesome, bloody, sick story, and I absolutely loved it!! So much gore and sickness, I can’t even explain!! Definitely get on this book!!!
“There was something down there that they shouldn’t be messing with.” In Custer Falls, that’s a warning you should always heed, especially in this 4th installment of this dark twisted town’s heritage.
The merging of storylines in Custer Falls was deftly executed with a menagerie of characters ranging from the mythical to the trope and everything (and I mean everything) in between. From the mischievous group of kids reminiscent of The Goonies… To the teenage scream queen whose ride around the pentagram was like no other… To the mother willing to do anything for her son no matter what … To the couple fantasizing of eachother’s demise (amongst other things)… To the family ties that bind way too literally… And finally, all the way up to The North Pole and St Nick himself.
And I would be remiss if I didn’t warn you all… Prepare yourself to have any fond views of that Jolly Old Fat Man and crew absolutely gutted and replaced with images like “elves grabbed faeries, dangled them until they cried and pinched off their wings. Wings stretched into rolls of wrapping paper, and the wingless faeries were forced to fold and cut the paper, using the blood from their backs as glue.”
… and that was the absolute stand out in this tale. The imagery. It was intense, horrific, gritty and well, a lot of damn fun. Hitz knows how to eek every drop of blood and debauchery from every single word, laying waste to each page.
“Snow showered on the houses and lawns and heads as they walked, a parade of deformity, nudity, infestation, and malignancy. It was a sign of what’s to come, though unseen except for those within the few the whiteout allowed.” I’m not sure if I saw that parade if I’d want to follow it straight to the North Pole to the epic climax, or I’d want to run the other way… Who am I kidding? I’ll see you all up on those snow covered peaks.
Santa vs. Satan is a wonderful example of why you shouldn't mess around with occult things. You never know what you might offend or release into the world!
This was a delightfully gory read and another excellent addition to the Custer Falls series! Filled with sex and careless violence, you'll see Santa like you've never seen before. And don't forget to leave out quality snacks....you may lose your head if you do.
I love how interconnected all the books in this series are. While they are standalones and can be read in any order, each book has little references to the others before it that connect everything back together. It's a fun nod to the rest of the series, though I was real unhappy that the creepy crawlies were back in this one!
I always have such a good time with this author, and I was really excited to get an early look at this one! If you haven't read any of this series yet, you should dive right in! Just be careful something else doesn't dive back out...
Danny is a 10 year old who still believes in the magic of Christmas. All he wants for a gift is a drone so he and his friends can make the splatterpunk movie he's always wanted to make.
Sandra Collins is Danny's 18 year old cousin who is going to Danny's for Christmas. Before that, her friends end up tricking her into becoming an offering to...the devil?! Once that night is over, Sandra turns into something even she cannot comprehend
This book is the perfect gift for Christmas! You meet a not so jolly Santa who is vile, gross, violent, and also has a pack with the devil! You meet some elves who you wish you could save, and you follow a clusterfuCk of kids doing some crazy stuff! Check your trigger warnings but this is definitely a must read! Don't sleep on this book!
All 10yo Danny wants is a drone for Xmas to make his horror movie. He and his friends get into mischief at a construction site, and well, things start to happen.
Sandra, Danny’s older cousin and a wannabe witch, is tricked by her friends into becoming a plaything for a general to Satan. And, well, things start to happen.
Santa is a vile, gross, heartless creature of a man who wants nothing more than a new Ms. Claus every year and to keep his immortality.
So much goes on in this book and it all centers around this general of Satan infecting these kids and their parents, ultimately leading to a matchup with Santa for his magic.
But be warned, this book is very descriptively vile. The amount of sexual grossness and gore is relentless. It’s from beginning to end. I read a lot of extreme horror and splatterpunk, but I had to put this down several times just because I couldn’t read anymore. I loved the story, but shew!
This book was by far the most horribly disturbing book I've ever read!!! I absolutely one hundred and ten percent ,loved it!!!!! If you love extreme horror and disturbing sex then this is a must read!! The characters were well written. Warning: Santa is an extremely vile person, not your jolly man in the red suit! Demons and santa, I never would have thought those two things would be good together. The end of the book had me rooting for Santa to win.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
D.W. Hitz does it again. This is another sick read, but once again, in a thrilling and good way. This is a rather dark story surrounding Saint Nick. The ending of this story was a page-turner toward the end.
I must warn you, all of your childhood memories of Santa will be totally wrecked. You've been warned!
Was very enticed by the "extreme horror" as I browsed kindle unlimited and honestly this did not disappoint.
Reminds me of my guilty pleasure Aron Beauregard and glad to have found another splatterpunk author to enjoy given that I've only learned what splatterpunk is today!
Highly recommend to any extreme horror fans and highly don't recommend to anyone else.
This was a total mind f and gruesome horror story but I absolutely loved it!! The story was incredibly well written and it was a great way to start of the holiday season. It pulled me in from the start and I couldn’t put it down I had a wonderful time reading it
What did I just read???? St. Nick is NOT what I grew up with! Lol! Literally gagged in my mouth reading this! Very good story and definitely original! If you want a different take on an evil fucking Santa, read this book!
Holy shit was this a ride! D.W. Hitz has done it to me again. I cringed, laughed and felt completely unclean after reading this. If you like horror on the extreme side than this book is for you. One thing I took away from this story was, Santa is a complete dick. This should be out soon. Keep your eyes peeled. #creepinitreal #booksfromthedoomsaloon
