Santa Claus
Santa Claus, also known as Saint Nicholas, Kris Kringle, Father Christmas, or simply Santa, is a legendary figure originating in Western Christian culture who is said to bring gifts to the homes of well-behaved ("good" or "nice") children on Christmas Eve (24 December) and the early morning hours of Christmas Day (25 December). The modern Santa Claus grew out of traditions surrounding the historical Saint Nicholas (a fourth-century Greek bishop and gift-giver of Myra), the British figure of Father Christmas and the Dutch figure of "Sinterklaas" (himself also based on Saint Nicholas). Some maintain Santa Claus also absorbed elements of the Germanic god Wodan, who was associated with the pagan midwinter event of Yule and led the Wild Hunt, a ghostly procession through the sky.
The Santa Clause 2
Eight years have passed since Scott Calvin took on the mantle of Santa Claus, redeemed himself to be good, and solved The Santa Clause Mystery. Now he has become a great Santa at the North Pole, until Head Elf Bernard and Curtis, the Keeper of the "Handbook of Christmas" break the news that there is another clause – the "Mrs. Clause", a mystery of who will marry Scott.
