Christmas in Tattertown is a failed 1988 TV pilot turned television special created and directed by Ralph Bakshi about a place where everything discarded in the world came alive. It aired on the cable television network Nickelodeon. When a young girl called Debbie, her pet dog and her toy doll Muffet end up in Tattertown, Muffet comes to life and, seeking freedom, refuses to go back to Debbie, who is unable to understand this. Debbie learns more about Tattertown and realizes that there is no Christmas there, so she tries explaining what Christmas is and helping the townspeople celebrate it for the first time. However, Christmas reminds Muffet of the day she was given to Debbie and decides to sabotage it with the help of her minion Spider. The story is narrated by the town's anthropomorphic saxophone. The short shares many similarities with Bakshi's more adult take on a similar idea in his follow up part animated part live action film Cool World.
