All that we can say is that Grinchmas is THE Christmas event for horror lovers and those looking for a little bit of a ribald edge to their Who-laday celebrations. Where else will you see a snarky-but-lovable green monster dressed up as Santa who presides over a whimsical town filled with the whacky Who’s. The loveable simpleton stereotypes that are the foil for The Grinch and his abrasive approach to the yuletide festivities.

What is there to do at Grinchmas? PLENTY! What’s more, there’s still plenty of time to see it. Running now through December 31st, Grinchmas invites guests into the newly Who-nivated Universal Plaza at the center of the park for activities including Tree Trimming (where guests can make their own ornaments), The Whoville Post Office (Where guests can send a letter to Santa) You can actually meet The Grinch’s dog, Max, and take a picture with him, and you can come face-to-face with The Grinch himself!
