Billy & Mandy Save Christmas is an hour-length Christmas special spun off from the Cartoon Network original series The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy.
Synopsis
Santa Claus has been bitten by a vampire — not by the Head Vampire, but actually by the Head Head Vampire. Mandy and Grim team up with the Head Vampire, Baron von Ghoulish, while Billy helps Mrs. Claus and the elves around the workshop and she was happy that Billy is the only one who ever offered her help.
It turns out that Mrs. Claus actually is the Head Head Vampire, who really turned Santa into a vampire because she was stressed from over work, but she doesn’t hate him because she loves him very much. She attacks the friends with her army of vampire bat elves. Baron von Ghoulish hides in a Christmas tree as Mandy faces off with Mrs. Claus. Meanwhile, Billy discovers the Vampire Antidote - cookies and milk.
Mrs. Claus is reformed by Billy's heartfelt words while reminding her the true meaning of Christmas, Santa is restored to life, Santa apologizes to his wife and Christmas is saved. On Christmas morning, Grim receives a new scythe, Mandy only gets coal because she was naughty and Billy becomes one of the reindeer to help Santa across the world.

Notes
- When Grim tells his story of Santa, Carl Greenblatt is on his naughty or nice list.
- A game called Hello 2 is mentioned, an obvious parody of Halo 2.
- Mandy calls the vampire Santa "Batman".
- When Grim, Mandy, and Billy arrive, there is a Wampa about to attack Luke Skywalker, parodying a famous scene from Star Wars - Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back.
- Originally, Maxwell Atoms wanted to use Krampus in the special instead of Santa, but Cartoon Network refused because Krampus resembles Satan.
- Billy revealed he celebrates Hanukkah.
