"Jack Skellington came here from Halloween Town. You'll notice his handiwork scattered around." Cora gasped as she saw a image of a smiling Sally holding a christmas tree morph into a picture of Sally frowning and holding a smoking christmas tree that had evidently been burned.
"THE PICTURE MOVED!" she screamed. Meanwhile, the rest of the group was trying to figure out the two imprinted faces in the wall that appeared to look at you wherever you moved.
"It's f*cking creepy," Gold mumbled.
"No sh!t," Regina rasped.
"WAAAH! IT'S SCARY!" Snow screamed. "Even more so than Snow White's Scary Adventure."
"This year he's decided to play Sandy Claws, but when Halloween creates Christmas, you might see a few flaws."
"No 'effin dur," Regina mumbled.
"What if Slenderman is in here?" Belle nervously asked, whirling around and almost screaming at the sight of the two imprinted faces in the wall.
"WHAT IS A SLENDERMAN?" Snow screamed.
"Shh, we're boarding the buggies now," Emma said, motioning towards the attendant. "And there are other people here." The attendant nodded creepily and instructed them to get into the carts, two apiece.
"And now a dark carriage will take you away. Sit back, rest in peace in your black christmas sleigh." Regina helped Henry into a sleigh, sitting by him. Emma nervously watched the two from the back and slapped Neal a high-five.
"Operation make-Regina-sit-by-Henry is complete," She said with a grin. Henry looked back and winked at her.
"Your sleigh will accommodate one or two more. We hope you're prepared for what Jack has in store."
"Bloody brilliant time to tell us, when we're already in the damn sleigh thingies," Hook mumbled. Cora let out a little chuckle but continued to uneasily look around at the giant display. Meanwhile, Snow was fighting with the bar.
"NO! THE BAR WON'T COME DOWN! WHAT IF I FALL OUT AND DIE?" she was screaming. Surprisingly, the attendant blankly stared.
"Don't pull down the bar, it will float down with ease, and remember, no flash photography, please." Snow groaned and leaned back into the seat.
"Never mind, then," she mumbled.
"Yes, down through the chimney Jack flew like a bat, clutching his magical Sandy Claws sack." The carts took everyone up a steep lift where they saw the Vampire Teddy fishing for nothing in particular, the string dangling loosely in the air.
"Fishing for compliments, eh, dearie?" Gold asked wryly with a grin. Belle chuckled nervously but was still holding her wand-light.
"He ripped open the sack and in moments it seems created a Christmas you have in bad dreams."
"This trip is a bad dream," Hook quipped.
"Should I toss you out of the ride if you don't like it then?" Cora asked sweetly. Hook began to sweat.
"Oh, no, that's quite all right, Cora." he chuckled nervously before backing away.
"Stay back!" he suddenly yelled. "I have a... stick!"
Cora smirked. "One word; magic, b!tches. Hell yeah." A bead of sweat appeared on Hook's forehead, and he gulped.
"B-but that was more than one word," he said, trying to sound brave.
"Hey, Hook," Regina called from the first cart. "Cowhide band." she suddenly burst into snickers and Hook gaped.
"What?"
"Cowhide... band," Regina said, wiping away tears of laughter. "Cowhide band." Hook looked at Cora.
"I don't know if you've noticed or not, but your daughter has gone maniac," he mumbled.
"More rabid than vultures, the mansion was changed; all was soon covered a-dawned and deranged." Mary Margaret swallowed nervously as the buggies pulled them slowly down a hall. To their right, there was a short hallway with a pile of bones on the floor. And even further down, a tiny floating Zero continuously barked.
"And what to your wondering eyes disappears- is Jack's little friend Zero, the ghost dog reindeer!"
"Aww," Henry said, beaming. "Zero is sooo cute."
"Nothing here was forgotten, it all looked so pleasant. A coffin, Jack says, makes a fine christmas present!" The group gasped at the sight of a bony skeleton hand reaching out and shaking the black length.
"I'm really scared, sweetheart," Belle said, giving Gold a hug. Cora looked at the two menacingly before directing her attention towards the attraction.
"It's not even that scary," she mumbled.
"Muahaha! A man eating plant makes a wonderful wreath- as long as you don't get caught in its teeth..." The buggies leaned upwards to show the group a giant wreath with sharp fang-like teeth. Vague singing and laughter could be heard in the background.
"Well, that's one f*cked up holiday gift," Hook mumbled. "Bloody hell."
"Why do they call it 'bloody' hell anyway?" Regina wondered quite suddenly. "I mean, hell isn't bloody. Right?" Hook pondered this for a moment.
"Mom, look there!" Henry said, shaking the former Queen and pointing towards a door shaking violently. "Someone's stuck in there!"
"Never fear, Charming is here!" David yelled, sitting up and trying to get the bar off. He began to sweat and looked up fearfully at the door.
"Don't worry! I'll come save you... as... soon... as... I... get... this... bar... off..." Snow rolled her eyes, before perking up. You could almost see the light bulb above her head.
"Oh, oh, so scared," she said, before lying down and pretending to faint. She opened one eye, and Charming was still staring at the door.
"Jealous of a door, Snow Plight?" Regina cackled.
"It's White," Snow said, sitting up and sighing. Regina shrugged.
"Well, I'm only saying that because your heart is as black as the night..." she was grinning now and Snow gave her a perplexed stare.
"Crazy chicks," Cora mumbled.
"Jack's holiday vision was unlike no other, so ring out the bells; there's more cheer to uncover!"
"GASP!" Cora yelled as the buggies approached a room with a little suspended clear ornament. Placed inside the ornament, clear as daylight, was a green head with long, wavy pale hair. "OH NO THEY DIDN'T!" she almost jumped out from in the cart. "ELPHABA THROPP, I DEMAND THAT YOU GET YOUR HEAD DOWN FROM UP THERE AT ONCE!" Regina slammed her head against the buggy and Henry patted her on the back.
"On the thirteenth day of christmas my goo love gave to me thirteen rings of power embracing strength that never ends, twelve signs of the zodiac that rule the future and transcend," the head spoke. Henry shook his head in wonder.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE RING?" Gold suddenly yelled. "THE RING! THE RING! FRODO, THEY'VE TAKEN THE RING!"
"I think it's so sad that I'm used to it by now," Emma whispered to Neal.
"Eleven candles floating their scent of mystery in the air." The carts took the family out to a very large room and they gasped in delight at what they saw.
