Yule Log - Used for ghost stories

Definition: The true story of the Yule Log.
The true story of the Yule Log.
The custom of the Yule Log also seems to be a dying trend. It used to be a large log, cut from ones own land or a neighbor's, which was supposed to burn all twelve days of Christmas. While relaxing before the burning log, it was customary for people to gather around and tell ghost stories. Further proof of the existence of the tradition can be found by listening to the popular Christmas song, "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year." In it you can hear the phrase "there'll be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmases long, long ago."
