Melania Trump’s White House Christmas decorations are the stuff of nightmares – our 23 favourite reactions
The responsibility for choosing the theme and design of the White House Christmas decorations falls upon the First Lady. Last year, First Lady, Melania Trump chose to make the White House look like the lair of the Witch Queen Jadis of Narnia –
This year, she chose a look straight out of the Wes Craven playbook.
The White House released a video of Melania inspecting her victims decorations.
This is what people had to say about the spectacle.

Melania speaks through her art, which is mixed media – mostly jackets, trees, and stolen glances.

Melania has a real eye for horror. I like that the shapes of last year's "forest of despair" installation is an inversion of this year's "fountains of blood". pic.twitter.com/xHzIJeR4dJ
