Mulder drags Scully to a haunted mansion on Christmas Eve in The X-Files Season 6 episode “How the Ghosts Stole Christmas” — and things get a little bloody, a little spooky, and surprisingly festive. With guest stars Ed Asner and Lily Tomlin as prankster spirits, this bottle episode mixes psychological horror, Christmas cheer, and haunted house hijinks in true X-Files fashion.
In this video, I break down the plot, highlight the funniest and creepiest moments, and dig into behind-the-scenes trivia about how the episode was made. From Mulder’s questionable aim to Gillian Anderson covered in stage blood, it’s a holiday X-File worth revisiting any time of year.
