About

"A cozy Christmas trip curdles into folk horror"

A Danish family travels to a remote German holiday resort for Christmas, and a teenage girl becomes fascinated by old local folklore about elves living in the surrounding forest. What starts as eerie campfire stories curdles into something darker as she pushes past the resort's boundaries. The show leans on slow-burn atmosphere, wintry isolation, and a creeping fairy-tale dread rather than jump scares, carried mostly by its unsettling setting and a sense that adults around her are hiding something.

Watch it for

the moody, snowbound atmosphere and its unsettling spin on old elf folklore.

Maybe skip if

you want fast-paced horror rather than a slow, brooding mystery.
