Meet the characters from ”Christmas Of The Dead”: LIV

A teenage misfit who is more or less forced into confirmation classes. She would much rather
spend her nights blasting away in video games and listening to death metal. 🤘

Behind her tough and sarcastic exterior hides a girl who mostly just misses her family. When her mother suddenly
disappeared a year ago, Liv built herself an armor of attitude. Yet deep inside, hope still remains.

Liv is played by Lilly Bengtsson, who amazed us with her audition and brings her experience from
theater and musicals across the west coast of Sweden to the screen with a striking presence.

This Christmas, watch her go from Teenager… to Ghoulslayer! 🧟💥

Meet the characters from ”Christmas Of The Dead”: MOTHER ELINA

A devout believer who once had a spectacular career in martial arts, she secretly holds on to the idea that sometimes you should not turn the other cheek. Years ago, she met a nerdy fan during a Kung Fu performance, fell in love, and started a family. But her true calling came to light when she was given a Holy Mission by the Church. Elina accepted, choosing to protect the living from monsters, werewolves, and the undead alike, even if the cost was leaving her family behind. 🧟‍♂️🔫💥

Elina is played by Agnes Gester, who brings both emotional depth and powerful resolve to the role.

Meet the characters from ”Christmas Of The Dead”: GHOUL PRIEST 🧟‍♂️⛪

Once upon a time, he was called Per. At least, that’s what the archives say. But Per is dead. Only
the Ghoul Priest remains. He comes from a long line of holy men, from an age when the Church
held dangerous power.

Today, he still preaches in his lonely parish outside Varberg, speaking of
love on Earth and the inevitability of Hell. He has no humor left in him, only devotion. The only joy
he grants himself is that… of holy music. He loves that kind of jam.

The Ghoul Priest is played by Robin Ahlqvist, a versatile actor known from ”Last Christmas Wish”
and the upcoming short ”Tiny Coffin” and feature film ”Nelly Rapp: Porten till Underjorden”.

Here, he goes all in, conjuring chilling sounds, fierce expressions, and even eerie moments of dark
comedy.
