A furious mum says she paid £85 for a "Grinch visit" for her son - and ended up having her home trashed.
A post on Facebook has been shared widely after Laura Magill detailed how distraught she was after paying out for the festive visit, which allegedly led to her home being destroyed.
The visit should have included the Grinch having a pillow fight, putting toilet roll around the Christmas tree, and posing for photos with the kids at the end of the performance.

But the Northern Irish mum said her house was wrecked.
Her post went on to say Christmas decorations were apparently smashed, party food ruined, and a mixture of washing-up liquid and juice coated both the floors and her son in the process, Belfast Live reports.
After the post went viral, one events company, LOC-Down Events Superheroes & Princess Hire, said it had been "received a few emails", but confirmed it was nothing to do with them.
They clarified the post in question wasn't about their Grinch, who is a "movie quality Jim Carey style Grinch" set for performances, plays, and games - not for wrecking the homes of shocked parents.
The post in full said: "Please note there is a post making it’s rounds on Facebook regarding a Grinch that was hired for a home visit and destroyed the customers property!!!
"This is NOT our company we only supply a movie quality Jim Carey style Grinch that puts on a performance plays games etc.
"Any videos you have seen from Loc-Down with a tree being wrecked are all set up We do not destroy any property at events or home visits!!
"Please do not think this is our Grinch or company!! I have had a few mails, this is nothing to do with LOC-Down Events Superheroes & Princess Hire!!"
