You saw a later version of this tale HERE...
...but this is the original story, behind a very misleading, but extremely-kool, cover by Bill Everett!
Illustrated by Bob Forgione and scripted by an unknown writer, this story from Atlas' Journey into Unknown Worlds #47 (1956) was more "hard" science-fiction and less "science-fantasy" than the later tale following the same basic plot!
But they're both equally-good at getting the Yuletide message across, eh?

The layouts of the "They Wait in the Shadows" look like Ditko layouts. I'm not saying it's definitely Ditko but it sure has that vibe much of the time.
