There's also a Jack Frost where a boy's dad died & when he plays a magic harmonica his dad becomes the snowman he built.

SpongeBob has quite a big heart for Christmas. he brought the holiday to Bikini Bottom, to even saving Christmas from Plankton's Jerktonium laced fruitcake. he's absorbent, yellow, and has the biggest love of the holidays.
I have several favorite Christmas characters. Rudolph and Jack Frost are two of my favorites. I love the original Rudolph that is on CBS every year. And the favorite Jack Frost is the one that is in “Rise of the Guardians”. I love the voice, Chris Pine, and to me, that Jack Frost is my favorite. I just love Christmas!!! 🎄🎄🎉⛄️☃️
Merry Christmas, Everybody. I wish the best for each and every one of you all.

I love 1979’s Jack Frost since I was a kid. It’s been years but I still love it. MotherNature from The Santa Claus 3 did say he doesn’t have a holiday movie but I still like the movies he’s featured in
I really enjoyed watching this! Thank you! So happy to see The Little Drummer Boy. On my personal list I must include Heat Miser & Snow Miser!
The Grinch movie is 19 years old? Dang-Time went fast!
RIP Burl Ives, Or Sam the Snowman in "Roudolf the Red Nose Reindeer".

Thanks for this list guys. Sadly, I missed a favorite christmas tradition of mine this year. I haven't watched any of my christmas movies :(. Sadly I had a huge work load for the past four days. However, the month is not over yet :D
I guess mine would have to be Frosty. I also like the Ghost of Christmas Present, the head elf and Yukon Cornelius from Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer, Marv and Harry from Home Alone, and yes I like Santa, too.
The holiday personality that most easily gets me in the Christmas spirit is Tiny Tim; however, the one who makes it the most emotional is the Ghost of Christmas Future.
My favorite Christmas characters are Rudolph the Red nose Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman.
Merry Christmas everyone!

The first time I heard of Krampus was in a game, Don't Starve, good game by the way, and he is a villian too, in the game he punch you and start to take away all ypur things in your inventory only if you do naughty things like the "real" Krampus but he doesn't give you a punishment that could torture you or something like that.

Matthew Cool Thanks mate, merry Christmas to you and yours
I had a feeling ol' St. Nick would be number one. XD This was a nice list, though, I think the Miser Brothers should've at least been honorable mentions. They're very well known, and loved.
My list 1. Santa 2. Frosty 3. Rudolph 4. Mrs Santa 5. Jack frost 6. Elves 7. Krampus 8. The grinch 9. Little drummer boy 10. Nutcracker
Just a few questions: 1. I love the Santa Clause films, why was only the first one shown very briefly during the elves listing? 2. Also, what about Santa Claus the movie? No clips were shown during the elves listing or Santa Claus listing. Patch was a great elf. 3. During the Rudolph listing, you only showed clips from that doll animation film, what about the cartoon? That was better me thinks.
All of them. Our family loves all of the Christmas charecters.
Merry Christmas, Everyone. You're all wonderful people.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.

Kayla W. Of course. If you ask SCIENCE, let's say, it's fiction. If you ask someone who believes everyone at their word (i.e. an imbecile), they would say Jeebus walked the Earth, did a bunch of magic tricks, and died. They'd also say some douchebag killed his brother, some other douchebag almost killed his son until a magical sky fairy said "lol jk." Not to mention parts have been added and removed through millenia, and translated an asston of times, probably to the point where the original text is hardly represented today. Take all of that, and combine it with what we know now, most of that shit probably never happened. I can believe there was some dude names Jesus, and he was overall a pretty cool dude until he was killed because the zealots of the time thought him a false idol. That sounds like a more plausible story. But unless we can find his bones or something, and MAYBE a midiclorean sample, I'll start to consider things.
Clark Griswold better be high on this list
The yetis probably my favorite or the grinch
