Susie Snowflake is the antagonist of "A Holly Jolly Holiday", the fourth short story in More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps. She is the protagonist of the holiday special of the same name.
History[]
In the special, Susie goes around spreading holiday cheer wherever she goes, giving homemade cookies to children. At one point, she hugs a grumpy neighbor to cheer him up. Not much else about the special's plot is known, although Beth mentions a scene where Susie dances with Santa.
When a girl named Jodie bought a tape of the special from The Christmas Shoppe, she and her family started to transform into Susie as they watched the top, gaining similar red hair and having her sickeningly sweet mannerisms. Jody's sister Beth was able to reverse the curse by burning the tape before she herself fully turned into Susie.

Trivia[]
- In Goosebumps HorrorTown, the special is referred to as "Sugar Cookie Speedway Zone". This is a reference to a gag subtitle from a review of More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps by the blog Point Horror. The reviewer stated the nicknames were meant to be references to the level titles in the Sonic the Hedgehog games.
- Additionally, Susie is referred to as an actress playing a character in the movie.
- She was later added as a character in the "The 12 Screams of Christmas" event.
- The story does not clarify if the movie is live action or animated, but Goosebumps HorrorTown establishes that it is a cartoon.
- Her dance animations in HorrorTown are reminiscent to the little dance SpongeBob SquarePants does in the Season 2 Christmas special, Christmas Who?. Right down to the little pop-up animations being the backgrounds of said dance.
- ”Suzy Snowflake” (note the different spelling) is a popular Christmas song first recorded in 1951, and the possible origin of this character’s name. The song’s lyrics, however, seem to describe an actual snowflake instead.
