E56The NutcrackerIt is Christmas Eve, and a girl named Maria (Minnie Mouse) is admiring her Christmas presents as an offscreen narrator (voiced by John Cleese) rhetorically asks, "Who could describe them all?"

E57How to Haunt a HouseIn order to demonstrate how to haunt a house, the narrator (voiced by Corey Burton) arranges for Goofy to be in an accident that causes his spirit to roam around as a ghost. Although Goofy worries that this means he's a goner, the narrator assures him that it's only temporary, just long enough to help with his demonstration. The first step is to "choose a house to haunt", so the narrator suggests that Goofy check the classified ads in the paper to find one. Doing as tasked, Goofy settles on a house on a hill with creaking hardwood floors, a fog-enshrouded breakfast nook and an informal dying room. Step two is "selecting a hauntee", and the narrator gives Goofy the choice of selecting Mickey Mouse, Clarabelle Cow, or Donald Duck to be the one he will haunt. - A Very Goofy Christmas
E62A Very Goofy ChristmasGoofy and Max are mailing a letter to Santa Claus. However, as soon as they get home, their neighbour Pete tells Max that Santa does not exist, saying it is impossible that he cannot fly around the world in one night. Things get worse when Goofy poses as Santa for some kids and Max finds out that he tricked him. Goofy is determined to prove to Max that Santa does exist and stays up all Christmas Eve to keep an eye out for him while Max, still bitter, just wants to move on. After mistaking a Beagle Boy (who was robbing Pete's house) for Santa, Goofy eventually gives up hope of Santa coming. Max then does everything that Goofy did, to try and make him happy, including posing as (a very small) Santa himself. In the end, the real Santa actually comes and gives Max the gift he had asked for earlier (as well as burying Pete's house next door, in snow). When Max asks Goofy if Santa forgot his present, Goofy answers that every year he asks for the same thing - Max's happiness.
