Appeared in: The Year Without a Santa Claus (1974)
A Miser Brothers Christmas (2008)
Snow Miser is a creature who controls the cold weather of the Earth. He and his half-brother Heat Miser are the offspring of Mother Nature. Snow Miser is the more easy-going of the two brothers, and applauds the existence of Santa Claus as the best advertisement for snowy weather of all time. As such, he easily agrees to help Mrs. Claus when she comes to ask a favor of the elements. However, his power must bow to that of his brother in the south who controls the weather in that region. When he's reluctant to cede to his brother's terms for the sake of Southtown's Christmas merriment, he's transported to the realm of Mother Nature to answer for the petty argument. Snow Miser's minions live with him in an ice castle, and serve as back up dancers for the welcoming reception each guests receives upon arrival to their icy abode. Snow Miser would later appear in a new sequel to the 1974 special, A Miser Brothers Christmas, which debuted on December 13, 2008 as part of ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas programming stunt. His voice was portrayed by Juan Chioran as Dick Shawn passed away in 1987.
