This is a lovely story, it's a remix of Rise of the Guardians (movie) & Guardians of Childhood (books), which, I admit, I haven't seen or read, but I enjoyed this adaptation very much. It took just a bit to understand everything, but that's part of the magic of the story.

Here we have Harry as the Boogeyman, and he's the gentlest one, a darling, and we have Draco, a winter spirit, a rather new one, who has been lonely since his birth as a spirit, and because of this, because this loneliness he's freezing the heart of humans, and making the children stop believing in the Guardians. And so Harry and the Sandman, the Eastern Bunny, Santa and the Tooth Fairy have to work together to stop him.

It's got a nifty cast, and you know what else? Harry understanding of what Draco is feeling is absolutely lovely.
