A Christmas Nightmare

A Christmas Nightmare began December 23 2008, as one of Santa's helpers, the elf Jim arrived at the North Pole. Jim would say "Welcome, child number *MEMBERNUMBERHERE*, to the wonder filled, magical mysterious North Pole. *sigh*
Due to the Politically Correct Santa Act of 1984, all children of the world are entitled to one free present. Please take this claim ticket to workshop 42A to pick up your free gift." After walking 15 miles to Workshop 42A, the Solian would collect a Christmas Gift Box. If an attempt to open it was made, the inventory would say "After numerous unsuccessful attempts at opening the box, you find a note on top.
“Good little boys and girls must not open me before Christmas. ~ Santa”" It could be equipped like a normal item, but not traded. Some users discovered how to work around the system and forcibly trade the boxes, but this was disallowed and trades were fixed.
On December 26, the boxes were able to be opened. Its opener would be greeted by a Zombie Head, and upon returning to their inventory they would be told if they remained human, or were transformed by the head into a zombie or a ghoul.
