Hogfather
Expect the unexpected.
On Sky One
A whimsical, philosophically playful fantasy adventure that uses Christmas mythology and the personification of Death to explore belief, meaning, and the power of stories.
On the night before Hogswatch, the holiday where children anticipate presents from the beloved Hogfather, Death notices that the Hogfather's life-timer is lying broken on the floor of his castle. Could it be that Hogswatch will not happen this year?
