Netflix has put an Umbrella Academy-inspired spin on a classic Christmas carol.
The streaming service released a video on YouTube titled "We Wish You A Merry Klausmas," named after the spirit-summoning Klaus Hargreeves (Robert Sheehan). "We Wish You A Merry Klausmas" is comprised of clips from Season 2 of The Umbrella Academy and, in true Klaus form, features a lyric where Klaus says, "I could really go for some tacos." His sister Vanya (Elliot Page) replies sardonically, "Is there any way that tacos is gonna cause the end of the world?"
The rest of the video is comprised of more auto-tuned lines from throughout Seasons 1 and 2 of the Netflix series. According to Netflix, the video was made with the help of Schmoyoho, a musical comedy quartet, to create the holiday sing-a-long.
The Umbrella Academy focuses on the Hargreeves siblings, who were superheroes in their youth. Season 1 brought them together after the death of their father, and their time-traveling sibling Five came back with a dire warning about the apocalypse. Season 2 saw the Hargreeves scattered across time in 1960's Dallas, where they banded together to prevent yet another apocalypse. In the Season 2 finale, they returned to their own time to find their father and brother Ben alive and leading the Sparrow Academy.
Based on the comic series of the same name by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, The Umbrella Academy stars Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher and Justin H. Min, with Ritu Arya, Yusuf Gatewood, Marin Ireland, Jordan Claire Robbins, Kate Walsh and Colm Feore. Seasons 1 and 2 are now streaming on Netflix.
