Christmas Spirit (FILE-07) - Haltmann's Archives

"Christmas Spirit [FILE-07] - Haltmann's Archives" is a lore video and the seventh "file" in Haltmann's Archives. It documents the power-imbuing effects of Christmas Spirit on individuals like Santa Claus, as well as President Haltmann's attempts to synthesize it.

Summary
The video is formatted like all Haltmann's Archives videos starting with "&#91;FILE-02&#93;".

The text begins with a description of Santa Claus, the legendary bringer of Christmas cheer, and his astounding ability to deliver all of the world's presents in a single night. The researchers at Haltmann Works Company suggest that Santa uses a substance called Christmas Spirit to augment his abilities. Through reconnaissance on the North Pole the researchers discovered a factory producing the green liquid, which they took back and experimented on. The substance was found to:
 * have a light green color
 * be of varying viscoscity
 * be extremely volatile
 * occasionally emit the sound of a sleigh bell
 * empower living matter with tremendous strength
 * reproduce in "festive" conditions

The researchers then conclude that Christmas Spirit is what allowed Santa to augment himself and several weapons, such as the bombs that Santa apparently used in the "Iraq bombing of 2002". In order to take advantage of the substance's ability to enhance weaponry, the researchers suggest using high quality rips to produce Spirit. Of the three songs they tried, "Snow halation" produced the most with over 100 liters. The FILE then ends by posing the question of whether Figments have any connection to Christmas Spirit.

"Bonneton (Cap Kingdom)" from Super Mario Odyssey and "Timber Owls" from Final Fantasy 8 play in the background of the video.

Context
Christmas Spirit acts as a major plot device in The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis. It is one of the reasons Santa is captured in "Advent of Hell", and it is used by The Voice Inside Your Head's minions in subsequent episodes.

The mention of "the Iraq bombing of 2002" is a reference to the South Park episode "Red Sleigh Down" (aired December 2002). As described in the FILE, in the episode Santa is captured and tortured in Iraq, then Father Christmas bombs the place into a Christmas wonderland.

"Snow halation" is a major theme on the channel. Though it is not necessarily Christmas-themed, the song was used in SilvaGunner: Rebooted to represent love, Christmas, and high quality rips.

Trivia

 * The FILE uses both American and British English: "color" instead of "colour", but "litres" instead of "liters".
