Quick answer

The Creepy Present Holiday Card is a funny, unsettling way to say 'Happy Holidays' to friends who love dark humor. Pair it with a short message that plays up the creepy factor, or keep it simple and let the card do the work.

Why choose a creepy holiday card?

Most holiday cards are sweet and sentimental. If you have a friend who appreciates dark humor, a creepy card breaks the monotony and becomes a memorable gag. The Creepy Present Holiday Card from Exploding Kittens is designed to look like a bizarre, unsettling gift, making it perfect for someone who already enjoys offbeat jokes.

What to write inside a creepy holiday card

Keep the message short and in character. Options include: 'Happy Holidays from your favorite nightmare,' 'This gift is watching you,' or 'May your holidays be as weird as this card.' For a more NSFW twist, add a line about questionable presents or awkward family dinners. The card itself already sets the tone, so you don't need a long note.

When to skip the creepy card

Not everyone will appreciate a creepy holiday card. Avoid it for formal relationships, older relatives, or anyone who prefers traditional holiday cheer. If the recipient is easily spooked or doesn't share your sense of humor, stick with a standard funny or sincere card.
