Buffalo (NY/USA) is a snowy town of great Christmastime spirits, and a certain family's procured a magical creature from a Chinese merchant named Magi and the little Ewok-looking miniature lovable creature has made their Buffalo winter somehow brighter and more cheerful.

A special clan of circus-performers is passing-thru Buffalo and notice the Magi-creature in the household of the O'Meara family in Buffalo and ask why the family's holding such a mystical 'being' and why they think they've the authority to keep it! This gypsy-circus clan, called Dartmouth, suggests to the family they must heed their special wandering warning.

O'MEARA: We're just ice-skating together in the downtown Buffalo rink area, and we'd no idea the Dartmouth clan existed!

It was the precocious boy of the family O'Meara that approached the eerie Chinese merchant and asked him if he'd procure the weird Magi-creature he'd been holding in a veiled cage on the city-street and from which the creature peered out for one moment which is when the O'Meara boy spotted it/him and ran up to the Chinaman and hoped to buy the 'pet' for their family-home.

O'MEARA: We thought it to be really cute, but if you fed the damn thing too much, it'd surely become a hellraiser.

They found out the hard-way after mommy O'Meara prepared a giant pre-25th Buffalo (NY) 'feast' which created/cast the Magi-creature as a being of incredible endless laughter.

This chuckling soon turned into a sinful insidious grimace-like snarly sneering laughter and the mutated creature was now called 'Spike' and resembled more of a Xenomorph than an Ewok and escaped the O'Meara home through the dog-door slot and scurried onto the lit Christmas streets, blowing up cars parked on the road(s).

Fortunately, the daddy O'Meara called the Dartmouth circus-clan of gypsies who'd warned them of the 'danger' of the Magi-creature and were immediately employed to search-and-destroy 'Spike' the mutated hellraiser and used a special water-gun toy filled with acid to burn its feet and debilitate it enough to take it to the veterinarian hospital where it'd be both incarcerated (forever) and treated emotionally (forever). The O'Meara family then enjoyed an iconic Bills game in the Buffalo stadium, joyous/grateful the 'Gremlin' Magi-creature from Hell was back in the sanitary securities of infrastructural democracy.
