Just because the holidays draw near that doesn't mean the weird Dante's Inferno-related crap I've been getting in the mail is slowing down!

Nope, today a horrifying ornament -- as seen on the Internet! -- arrived. Wrapped in a white, blood-stained box adorned with a black bow, the ornament looks like it would be a terrifying addition to any holiday tree. It depicts a body stretched and twisted around dirty sticks and pine cones, all of it hanging from a bloody hook that's attached to a piece of "human skin."

In case a gallery of pictures isn't doing it for you, check the above video to get a closer look at this holiday atrocity. Dante's Inferno hits stores in February; if you're more interested in the game than marketing stunts that are starting to scare my family, check out my demo impressions and video walkthrough.

I would definitely rock that on my tree. Now if only they had a set that also included the "River of Boiling Blood" and whatever that desert one was with the skull. That would be awesome. EA - make it so.
