Biography[]
In one of the calls, Paula tells Frank West to investigate the Christmas Tree Lot, because there is someone killing survivors there, which suggests that she is luring them. So Frank heads to the site's location, where he's watched by elves (actually, they're outbreak-crazed employees) and is startled by the voice of Sadistic Claus, who hints that Frank West has been "very naughty", which means that they set a trap for their victims to kill him.
After that, he sends a horde of elves to kill Frank, but manages to kill them all, which makes Sadistic Claus appear out of nowhere and try to kill him himself, but ends up defeated and killed by him.

- Brandon Whittaker: He also went crazy after seeing the death of his friends, and who during the outbreak both wanted to kill the other survivors.
