Church Anger Over ‘Devil’ Santa
Devil SantaChurch leaders in York say the Christmas display at one of the city’s tourist attractions could expose children to “evil forces”.

As well as meeting the alternative Santa, visitors to the grotto are handed “gifts” such as severed fingers, and can write on a scroll to sign their souls away. On its website the dungeon says the festive attraction includes elves impaled on spikes and robins roasting over an open fire with Santa being put in a witch’s cauldron and boiled.

A spokesman for York Dungeon said, “There are many people who are tired and weary of the commercial aspect of Christmas and for those people our attraction comes as a light relief… It is all tongue-in-cheek and our visitors love it.”

Thanks Bsti!!
