De: Bill Tarino

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Winter casts a serene spell over the small town of Pine Hollow, covering it in a blanket of snow and holiday cheer. But for ten-year-old Ella and her family, this Christmas season is anything but peaceful. One morning, Ella wakes to find a snowman standing in her front yard. At first glance, it seems like a harmless, playful creation. Its coal-black eyes and crooked grin give it an almost endearing charm. But as the days go by, the snowman begins to move - closer to the house, closer to Ella’s window - without leaving a single footprint behind.

Ella’s parents dismiss her fears as childish imagination, but her older brother Ethan isn’t so sure. Strange noises echo through the night. Whispers seep through the walls. Shadows stretch and twist in unnatural ways. And always, the snowman watches, standing like a sentinel in the frosty yard. Its presence is unnerving, yet somehow protective, as if it is guarding the family from something far worse.

The truth is far more terrifying than they could have imagined. The snowman is no ordinary figure of frost and snow - it is a silent guardian, holding back a dark and malevolent spirit that seeks entry into their home. With Christmas Eve fast approaching, the spirit grows stronger, its attacks more relentless. The snowman’s coal eyes begin to glow faintly, signaling a desperate struggle between light and darkness.

As Ella and Ethan dig deeper into Pine Hollow’s chilling history, they uncover a decades-old legend about a cursed grove and a spectral force that preys on the fearful. The snowman, they learn, is a rare and mysterious protector summoned by belief and hope, but its strength depends on those it defends. The siblings must find a way to strengthen the snowman’s vigil before the spirit breaches their home. Time is running out, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. If the spirit succeeds, it won’t just claim their home - it will consume their lives.

The Snowman’s Vigil is a chilling supernatural thriller that weaves holiday charm with heart-pounding suspense. Perfect for fans of atmospheric horror and seasonal tales with a dark twist, this story explores the power of belief, the bonds of family, and the courage it takes to confront the darkness. As the snow falls and the lights twinkle, beware what lurks in the shadows - because some snowmen aren’t built for fun.
