It’s Christmas time in Custer Falls and Hitz is ready to deck the halls with blood, guts, and all the creepy crawlies you can imagine. This might be the bloodiest and goriest book Hitz has written so far. Just when I think he’s reached his peak, he comes back with even more and unpacks the carnage right in the reader’s lap. Several gag worthy moments for me in this one, and I feel like the author holds nothing back with the descriptions.
Santa Vs Satan is a wild ride for sure. We see the dark side of Santa, the nasty side of Bazamere and so much depravity. If some of your senses aren’t violated after reading this, something is wrong. This should be on every extreme horror lover’s list. It’s a must-read for the holidays!

Santa vs. Satan is the fourth installment in the Custer Falls Extreme Horror series, and will definitely take you on a bloody and depraved ride, one from which you will never view Santa Claus the same way again. I have not read the previous books in this series, but it didn't seem to matter as I had no trouble understanding what was happening.
For such a short book, this was a complex story, well-written, fast-paced, full of fascinating characters, and a fantastic plot. At first, I had no idea how the characters connected to each other, but as the book progressed, it all made sense. Because the story focuses a lot on body horror as well as graphic sex, the story does revolve around some pretty depraved and graphic descriptions around different scenarios involving all the characters, including Santa. So many vile images that will take a while to get out of my head.
I don't think I've ever read a book with such a vile Santa before, one who is looking for a new Mrs. Claus, and who brutalizes his elves and other workers with such ease and contempt. And poor Danny, all he wanted was a drone so he could film an amateur horror film with his friends, but got caught up in the depravity because he went where he should not have gone, against his instincts. If there is a lesson in this story, don't go where you should not go and if it's glowing and it looks like a pentagram, stay the hell out.
Verdict
Santa vs. Satan has definitely ruined by childhood version of Santa, but this was such a fun and twisted read. The dual story lines blended seamlessly, coming together in an epic showdown that I couldn't even guess the resolution, with supernatural elements, rituals, monsters, and a conclusion I loved, made this a book you will want to read if you love extreme horror. I have read worse when it comes to extreme, but it was the writing style that made it so epic.

"Father Christmas’s arm moved faster than the smaller being could see. The back of his hand smashed into Eli’s jaw to the sound of cracks through tooth and bone, and the elf soared through the air."
The fourth installment in the Custer Falls series and this one was the best by far. It was disgusting in all the right ways and I absolutely devoured this in one sitting.
Thank you to the author for sending me an ARC of this one, and also thank you for ruining Christmas.
