When Christmas supply warehouse manager Jimmy tries to help new employee Tommy find a last-minute gift for his girlfriend, they accidentally unleash a long-forgotten and very seasonal genetic experiment with a taste for human flesh. As elf-zombie hybrids take over the small town of Pine Canyon, California, Jimmy fights to survive alongside a Christpunk named Landfill, and a mysterious, PTSD-stricken soldier. Hold onto your stockings because the goddamn elves are back, baby! “This Yuletide-themed homage to one of the greatest zombie films ever made is a rollicking good time. Brian Asman delivers laughs and gory thrills galore in a book sure to put you in the holiday spirit–if you don’t get disemboweled first. Eat the fruitcake and take the ride.” –Bryan Smith, author of 68 Kill "With 'Return of the Living Elves,' Brian Asman shows he's the funniest, goriest, scariest comedy-horror creator this side of James Gunn. If you loved 'Man, F*ck This House' (and you should love 'Man, F*ck This House'), you're going to absolutely flip for this one."- Nick Kolakowski, author of Absolute Unit and Love & Bullets
