​

GREG JINGLES

 Jeweler 

If you looked up narcissism in the dictionary, Greg Jingles’ picture would be plastered by the description.  Greg is a self-loving neighborhood jeweler with an exaggeration problem.  Greg’s great-grandfather founded the store Jingles’ Jewels, and the business has great family pride. Greg’s father recently retired, and Greg is now the managing owner.

Greg's elders have all retired from the family business, and Greg is under much pressure to protect the family's reputation as the go-to place in town for fine jewelry. 

Greg's grandmother has nothing but time on her hands and has infiltrated the town's gossip rings. For that reason, Greg is a great resource if you are looking for the skeletons in someone's closet. 

Greg is constantly snapping his fingers. Those closest to him say it helps him think.

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.   Costume jewelry pieces to show the other guests as optional accessories.

 

EBENEZER NIGHTSHADE

Local Actor 

Ebenezer Nightshade is a brilliant actor on stage, but in person, he’s the most reserved person you’ll ever meet!  Ebenezer’s sultry Italian accent wins over the ladies, but the theater is Ebenezer’s true love.  During social gatherings, Ebenezer can’t help but break out into random Shakespearean monologues!

Ebenezer's name is often left off the guest list of the parties in town. When Ebenezer later hears about the missed fun - smoke billows from his ears.  For this reason, Ebenezer has vowed to start hosting exclusive VIP-only bashes. However, on an actor's salary, he's finding it difficult. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater. Or, opt for a Scrooge costume - suit or nightgown. 

 

NOEL VIBES

 Radio Disc Jockey

Noel Vibes is a hard-working radio disc jockey and a master of deceit.  A compulsive liar even when the truth is better, this fast-talking record spinner is also a cheater at board games.  Noel is a klutz, so give this accident-prone radio personality some space.

Noel will lie when the truth is better, so believing anything that Noel says is not suggested. 

Noel gets angry when locals call the morning show and comment or ask questions. This controlling DJ prefers to stick to programming and only talk about current events. Noel isn't good with improvisations, despises the town gossips, and refuses to laugh.  A rumor has circulated about town that Noel gets the giggle snorts, so that is why laughter is suppressed.

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.

 

WALTER WONKA

 Chocolatier

Walter Wonka is the super-paranoid chocolatier.  Walter is the founder of Wonka Chocolates, a world-famous line of candy.  Walter is convinced that someone nefarious is watching his every move, but what interest would anybody have in a quirky chocolatier?

Walter often spews conspiracy theories about pending alien invasions. Many of the townsfolk claim Walter has lost his mind, but those closest to Mr. Wonka disagree. Walter has many folks who agree with his line of thinking. Maybe there is some truth to his theories - only time will tell. 

Walter often makes terrible jokes about things, followed by a noisy fit of laughter. Walter might be the only one in the room who finds himself funny. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater. Chocolate samples are optional props. You can also opt for a Willy Wonka costume with a Christmas accessory, like a Santa hat.

PAT PUFFS

 Pastry Chef 

Pat Puffs is a friendly baker who is intensely afraid of the government and often rants about conspiracy theories. Pat’s colleagues giggle about this chef wrapping foil around windows, television antennae, and anything else to prevent the feds from spying. Let’s all hope Pat keeps the foil out of the cupcakes.

Pat's bakery is currently on the outskirts of town and has delicious offerings. But it's only a matter of time before another bakery pops up in a more convenient location and shuts down the bakery. Pat's working against the clock to find a better location before that happens.

For now, the bakery's customers are willing to drive across town to listen to Pat's latest rants about how the government is plotting to end society as we know it. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater. A chef’s hat or uniform (underneath) is optional. You can bring samples of pastries as props. Bring aluminum foil and wrap random things in it to protect them during the game for more laughs.

 

GIGI ELFMAN

 Astronaut 

Gigi Elfman is a seasoned astronaut who sincerely believes that she has the highest IQ in the entire galaxy. Watch out for this brainy diva, as she’s known to be quite grumpy if things don’t go her way.

Gigi tells everyone she is a genius and goes on and on about her 158 IQ. If she indeed was that smart, why would she need to brag about it? The Snow Falls rumor mill has the thought that she's not what she claims.  However, she did graduate from Harvard with an engineering degree before completing an internship at a top-secret rocket engineering laboratory. 

Gigi strongly dislikes the sound of chewing and will hum loudly to block out the noise if anyone is eating within earshot. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  Astronaut uniform/helmet is optional.

Tendo Clause is self-loving but also tender and caring. This toymaker will be the first to support a friend's accomplishments without jealous undertones. Tendo won't hesitate to give food and money to the homeless and frequently volunteers at local animal shelters.

Is it Principal Evergreen or Principal Loony?  Well, the latter is what the kids not-so-lovingly nicknamed her at Snow Falls High School. Teens beware: rumor is that not everyone sent to Principal Evergreen’s office makes it back to class.  However, Eva has a softer side as she is the doting mother of 11-year-old twin girls.

Being an educator, Eva has a strong maternal side for anyone who has ever been a student at her high school. She has open ears to hear about problems and a shoulder to cry on. She is one of the best people in Snow Falls to go to for advice.  

On the other hand, Eva can be a bit preachy at times. She might not come down for a while if she gets on a soapbox. She is judgmental and can take a counseling session too far. For these reasons, some people avoid her, like the flu.

SAM SUGARPLUM

 Hollywood Icon 

A somewhat late bloomer compared to other big-screen icons, Sam Sugarplum became an overnight sensation with the release of the hit movie Gingerbread Man. Sam is a quirky trendsetter who can do no wrong in the eyes of fans but has declared war on members of the media.

Not too long ago, Sam was a long-time barista in Snow Falls. Everyone in town was shocked to see such a quick rise to fame from the person who was making their morning coffee. Rumors flew around town that Sam had paid someone off to reach that level of fame so quickly. However, no substantial evidence of bribery, blackmail, or other scandal has emerged. It seems that Sam lucked into a movie role and rose to the top like cream.

Sam is a self-proclaimed method actor who was recently cast as the lead role in a movie about a crazed psychopathic serial killer.

The Snow Falls grapevine recently received information that Brad might be under investigation, but nobody can confirm if this is true.

The local gossips have concocted crazy stories about why Brad would move from France to Snow Falls - from Brad being a wanted murderer to Brad being a con artist. Brad contends that he just wanted a fresh start, away from family drama, and to have a chance at the American Dream.  

Brad is a nervous person who is constantly distracted and twiddles his fingers.  Is he just overwhelmed or plotting the next scandal?

Frosty has thrown fits if he's not called to the stage in a timely manner. Does Frosty want to be a singer instead of a law enforcer?

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  A toy detective badge and a toy gun are optional accessories. Wear a Sherlock-inspired costume underneath.

​

AXI DENTE

Professional Victim

Axi Dente is an imaginative professional victim.  This clumsy diva is a meticulous and impatient woman.  She earns her way in this world by mysteriously causing accidents and winning lawsuits.  The townsfolk of Snow Falls have grown tired of this queen of misfortune.

Many people have tried their best to film Axi while she either sets up a scenario to become a victim or pretends to be the victim. Unfortunately, nobody has caught the right footage yet. Axi wears various bandages and perfects a limping routine—even at home, for she is a serious con artist. 

Axi is a sinister, brooding woman who never laughs. She remains stonefaced in all situations as if she is calculating her next move. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  Bandage your hands, forehead, etc.

 

ELIZABETH WINTER

 Food Inspector 

Elizabeth Winter is the blatantly honest food inspector. The food vendors of Snow Falls fear her, as she is a no-nonsense federal culinary detective.  She’s shut down her share of restaurants in town and will hand out costly violations for even trivial infractions.  On a personal level, Elizabeth is known to be unapologetically truthful.

She doesn't have many friends and doesn't know how to sugarcoat things or give compliments. Her brutal honesty is off-putting, but she cannot stand to be around fake people. Also, her reputation for putting people out of business certainly doesn't make her likable. 

She sometimes refers to herself in the third person, which makes conversations with her difficult. For this reason, people tend not to take her seriously.

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.

 

MEYER YULE

Massage Therapist

Originally hailing from the UK, Meyer Yule traveled to America to fulfill a lifelong desire to own a luxurious day spa.  Meyer made the dream a reality by opening a spa named Tranquility.  Meyer’s a bit of a one-upper, but this relaxation guru makes customers feel like royalty.

Meyer is an entrepreneur and remains open to joining new business opportunities. With a limited income as a massage therapist, Meyer wants to reach the stars but realizes that massaging clients isn't going to be enough to achieve the goal. Meyer is searching for a golden ticket but hasn't stumbled upon one yet.

Charlie is dismissive and often looks around people when speaking to them, refusing to make eye contact. Some find this behavior rude, but most introverts don't mind this behavior.

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  Chef’s hat or wearing a chef's uniform/costume underneath the sweater is optional.

 

ANDY WHITE

Animal Shelter Manager

CREW GRINCHER

 Christmas Tree Stylist

KENNEDY BOWMAN

 Greeter, Hallmart Supercenter

Kennedy constantly yawns out of boredom or sleeplessness and constantly zones out of conversations. Customers have complained that Kennedy refuses eye contact and stares at the floor when approached. Who knows what this greeter is thinking about? 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  Make a name tag with your name on it that says Hallmart Supercenter.

 

STEVIE POINSETTIA

 Candle Maker 

Stevie Poinsettia is the boisterous candle maker and owner of The Wax Emporium, the largest candle store in Snow Falls. Lately, Stevie has been stressed because of an unfortunate accident in the store, but hopefully, this candle maker can pull out of the emotional and financial slump before Christmas.

Stevie regularly checks the time - but what could be so important for a candle maker?  Some say it's Stevie seeing if enough time has passed to leave without upsetting anyone. Stevie doesn't like to be around others for long, as it drains his/her energy like a squeezed sponge. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater. (Optional: Bring candle samples for the other guests to see.)

Natalie is a practical joker and is known for pulling pranks on her close friends and entourage. Don't turn your back on this pop star, or you might get a sticky note put on your back that says, 'I bark at squirrels.' 

Suggested attire: Wear a Tacky Christmas sweater. Under your sweater, wear pop star attire, such as a sequin skirt, red fishnets, and shiny boots.

 

MAX MAXIMUS

 Rock Star

 Max Maximus is an unpredictable rock star from the UK.  You can never foresee what Max will do, so be prepared for absolutely anything.  Max is definitely out for attention and believes all press is good press.   That’s probably why she ate a mound of fire ants and posted it on UTube.  She nearly died from the act but never missed a show on her tour, performing two nights straight with an IV attached to her arm and a swollen face and throat.

Max doesn't sleep much and will often be found with dark circles under her eyes. Max has high standards and often criticizes things  - even when most people think they are fabulous.

​

EDWARD SMOOGE

 CEO, Toys B Us

Edward Smooge is the miserly Chief Executive Officer of Toys B Us.  He despises anything that he feels wastes time and money. The employees of Toys B Us wonder why such a man would want to be in charge of such a large toy corporation.  He certainly doesn’t have a shred of youth left in his personality and doesn’t care about kids having fun. All Edward Smooge cares about is the bottom line.

Edward Smooge is always rubbing his chin while plotting and planning how to save the next penny.  He stares into your soul, never looking away or breaking eye contact during conversations. Some find this behavior menacing and quite intimidating. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  Top hat and small, circular glasses or a monocle.

 

ISABELLA RUDOLPH

Town Gossip

Isabella Rudolph is a zany homemaker and neighborhood watch coordinator. She recently moved to the tiny town of Snow Falls, and in no time, she was labeled the town gossip. Everybody is afraid to be around Isabella, as she doesn’t keep secrets. Isabella comes from old money and dedicates her time to charities and party planning.

Isabella wants nothing more than to rise to the top of the social ladder and become a socialite. However, in her short time in Snow Falls, she has already found herself served with papers for a lawsuit. Maybe if Isabella kept her nose in her own business, she would stay out of trouble. Is being popular worth the stress? 

Isabella has a bad habit of compulsively interrupting someone telling a story if she has heard it before and knows what is coming next.  This annoying habit tends to anger others. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater and as many tacky holiday accessories (i.e., a crazy Santa hat, elf ears, etc.) as you can find.

 

ROXY RICH

 Heiress

Roxy Rich is a heiress, and her iconic family owns most of the real estate in Snow Falls. She is a drama queen, so have tissues on hand for this emotional diva! Choose your words carefully around her if you don’t want to make her cry or throw a tantrum! Roxy gets what she wants and is always seen with her assistant, Parker Mistletoe.

Roxy often pretends she doesn't know people she has been introduced to. This is her way of making others feel small. Roxy also isn't close to her family, which has caused strife and disdain among them over the years.  Maybe Roxy is a bit of a chaos junkie?

Roxy loves to flaunt her money and makes jokes about those who aren't as affluent as her. This certainly doesn't make people want to be friends with her.  Albeit, many ladder climbers in town will take anything she dishes out. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  However, you will remove the sweater moments after your arrival and unveil a fabulous holiday dress. Wear elaborate costume jewelry (of course, you'll say it's real), and have fake money pouring out of your costume.

 

ALEXIS HARMONY

 Choir Director

Alexis Harmony is the clueless director of the Snow Falls Girls’ Choir. She sings like a sick alley cat, but nobody has the heart to tell her about her horrible singing voice. It’s good that she has many other voices in the choir to hide her abysmal crooning—until it is time for her dreaded solo performance.

Alexis is a bit of a humanitarian and tries to do the right thing in most cases.  But Alexis isn't innocent by any means. She is known to spread gossip and start trouble between her mutual friends. Alexis is one of the peacemakers of her family, but she does have a threshold. She can only take so much nonsense. 

Suggested attire: Tacky Christmas sweater.  It is optional to have music sheets or use other musical-themed props. 

​

TALIA TINSELS

 Fashion Model

Talia Tinsels is an air-headed runway fashion model from South Africa. She is gorgeous inside and out, but her brainpower doesn’t quite measure up to her other assets. She often stands alone in making foolish verbal missteps in group conversations, ensuring she consistently sparks laughter, albeit at her own expense.

Talia is overly polite and a general sweetheart. She has never met a stranger and will go the extra mile to please others. Talia often engages in bouts of deep thought while others are talking to her, and she will allow her mouth to hang open. Some find this bizarre, but Talia claims she is engrossed in your words. 

Suggested attire: Wear a tacky Christmas sweater. In addition to your Christmas sweater, wear something high-fashion or avant-garde, such as a large wreath on your head with a cape. 

​
