Santa Claus isn't real...


Awkward moment watching Gremlns with the kids and Phoebe states "that's when I found out Santa Claus isn't real"

reply

Ouch, yeah, that would be awkward.

Thanks for the heads up! I had forgotten about that . . . as I sit here with my kids. I think it's bed time.

It's when Billy and Kate are hiding in the bank from the gremlins. Right after he rescues her from the bar.

Hope that helps 😊

I'm not sure if this really qualifies as definitive proof.

Her dad was coming down the chimney to provide a fun festive experience for their particular family. Obviously the real Santa πŸŽ… can't be doing that for everyone, especially on Christmas Eve - he's a busy man!

Really though, Billy should have corrected her on this as the tragedy doesn't prove anything...
