The teaser for Christmas At the Kringles begins with the arrival of the Severson family at their neighbor’s house. Their neighbors, the Kringles, are quite unique, which Mark Severson soon finds out after he arrives at their house. The official synopsis of the movie notes that the Kringles celebrate Christmas all year round.

However, when Mark arrives at their house, he soon finds himself in an array of life-threatening situations after he realizes what the true motive of the Kringles is. On the surface, the Kringles seem to be a jolly family enjoying Christmas throughout the year; however, they have the motive to “hypnotize and indoctrinate” the Seversons. The teaser of the new movie brings forth snippets of the brutality that Mark goes through after he arrives at the house.

It can be understood that there is going to be intense bloodshed and a rise in grim atmosphere as the storyline progresses. In Christmas At the Kringles, besides Mark coming across a dangerous situation after he arrives at the Kringles' house, he also gets concerned about his son’s well-being, as his son has gotten attached to the family. Mark navigates through these challenges to protect his son from the danger along with his wife, Julie.
