Some believe the Mayans predicted the end of the world will happen this Friday. But what would cause the world to end? Asteroids? Global Warming? In our holiday episode, we find it's far, far worse than that, and only Santa's Christmas Elves have the power to stop the oncoming apocalypse. It's a race to find out what unspeakable horrors await the fate of humanity!
