The minute-long video depicts Carey as Morticia Addams from “The Addams Family” dancing with a man dressed as Gomez Addams in a dreary haunted house—but Carey quickly throws a dagger at his face before opening a wardrobe, which contains a red Santa suit.
The video shows the calendar transitioning from the end of October to the beginning of November, after which Carey sings, “It’s time,” in whistle tones while sitting in a sleigh as “All I Want for Christmas Is You” begins to play.
Carey had previously teased her declaration of the holiday season, including in a video she posted Monday in which she prepares to sing “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” but is interrupted by Kerry Washington, with whom she urges viewers to make a plan to vote.
