As described by our friends in the ever-knowing world of Wikipedia, the word Kaiju (Japanese: 怪獣, Hepburn: Kaijū, lit. ’Strange Beast’) is a Japanese genre of films and television featuring giant monsters. When you think of Kaiju, images of Godzilla and Mothra probably come to mind. However, in the minds of creators Sam Haine and John Schrad, Kaiju obviously brings up thoughts of Christmas. At least as far as their new book, A Kaiju Christmas is concerned.
Now in Kickstarter, Haine and Schrad have combined to bring a children’s book for all ages. Based on The Night Before Christmas, A Kaiju Christmas changes things up. Instead of a Santa flying down to drop off presents, a giant monster snowman appears through an extra-dimensional portal to ruin the holidays! And it’s up to a group of brave kids to save Christmas and the world!

Senior Writer at GeekVibesNation – I am a 50 something child of the 70’s who admits to being a Star Trek/Star Wars/Comic Book junkie who once dove head first over a cliff (Ok, it was a small hill) to try to rescue his Fantastic Four comic from a watery grave. I am married to a lovely woman who is as crazy as I am and the proud parent of a 18 year old boy with autism. My wife and son are my real heroes.
