Sugar Plum Gary used to not believe in Christmas, until one magical Christmas Eve Santa came to visit the orphanage he grew up in, and he was the only survivor becoming possessed by the holiday spirit.

This December 18th & Union and Emmett Montgomery bring Sugar Plum Gary back to life.

The orphanage Sugar Plum Gary lived in was visited by Santa Claus one night, and he was the only survivor. Now he's a Santanist, and he's here to spread the word about the true reason for the season.
