About this episode
Christmas didn’t always belong to Santa Claus.
Long before stockings and sleigh bells, the darkest days of winter were ruled by ancient gods, roaming spirits, and creatures meant to reward—or punish—the living. Yule was a season of survival, magic, and fear… and many of those old beliefs still echo in modern Christmas traditions.
In this special Christmas episode of ParaTruth: Reborn, Justin & Erik explore the forgotten side of the holiday season—diving into Yule deities, pagan gods, and legendary creatures tied to Christmas across cultures. From benevolent gift-givers to terrifying watchers in the night, this is the side of Christmas most people never hear about.
Because before Christmas was cheerful… it was powerful.
