Ghost Stories For Christmas

Two people stand side by side in a dark, enclosed setting, each wearing a large animal skull mask that covers the head and face. Both are dressed in layered clothing with collared shirts and waistcoats. Each person holds a lit candle, with warm candlelight illuminating the skull masks and clothing against a shadowy background.

In its anniversary year, Ghost Stories of Christmas past meet chilling tales of Christmas present.

The show that revived a time-honoured tradition, according to the New York Times.
