You gotta wonder how many kids are irreparably damaged by their first encounter with Santa? And what are the sadistic adults who hire these creepy Santas thinking?

You forgot the most important one: the Santa in "A Christmas Story".

Those are some pretty scary looking Santas. No wonder some of the kids are screaming
and crying and raising their arms in a desperate attempt for their parents to rescue them
from the freaky looking Santa.

What's with the ones wearing masks? Are they from another country or something?

Serial Killer Santas----#4 is just GLARING at the baby! Yikes!
I was afraid of the Mall Santa when I was like four and five and I never understood WHY my parents thought it was "cute"---I was thinking "But LOOOOK at his Mean Face!" Couldn't get me to sit for a pic, not even with the promise of extra gifts. To Heck with Aunt Velma and sending her a picture postcard.
