About this game
Santa Claws Is Coming to town.

It's 10:00 PM, you just got home. You walk inside and the door slams behind you, but no one's there to greet you. Your parents aren't around, they've gone out for the night. There's a simple set of instructions left behind. Go to bed before Santa Claws comes, and whatever you do, DO NOT eat the cookies left out for him.
Surely one bite couldn't hurt though...?

Santa Claws is a Christmas themed horror mini-game. You've been left alone home on Christmas Eve with a simple set of instructions. Go to bed by midnight, and DO NOT eat the cookies left out for Santa. Will you be naughty and bring down the wrath of Santa Claws? Or will you be nice and live to see Christmas again next year.
He Sees You When You're Sleeping. He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad, or good. So be good... for goodness sake... Santa Claws Is Coming to town.
