Plot

After Santa Claus has noticed how many children have become naughty, he decides that he will not deliver presents to any children this year. But his daughter, Kristin Claus, thinks there is one more chance for a Christmas. She uses her magic to go to the Morgan house, a family of a single father and two spoiled children who are on Santa's "Naughty" list, and try to change them to nice. But the children are tricked by Rudolfa, Kristin's sister, who wants to turn Christmas into a joking holiday. They begin to resent Kristin, and even tell their dad she is dangerous. On a late-night drive in the middle of nowhere, the family (and Kristen) take an unexpected detour. Rudolfa sends an elf dressed as a deer into the middle of the road, causing them to swerve into a ditch. They spend the night at an old, abandoned house, where Kristin confronts Bill about his own selfish ways. The kids continue to act selfish and bratty, but Bill and Kristin don't put up with it. A fire breaks out, and Kyle, the family's son almost dies. Kristin gives her immortality to save him, but she now cannot remember her past.
