Decemberween is a holiday celebrated by the people of Free Country, USA, 55 days after Halloween, on December 25. It bears many similarities to Christmas, with colorful lights and garlands and the giving of presents, but also has some obvious differences. Decemberween food has some unique variations on more recognizable cuisine. Instead of turkeys, the traditional meal is bunnies (much to Marzipan's chagrin). The origins of the holiday are complicated, involving at least one Angel, Dr. Christmas (who looks a bit like Santa Claus), two Kobe Bryants, and a sailor named Archibald, all explained in the toon "A Decemberween Pageant". It can also be celebrated in July, time permitting.

References to Christmas
Though Decemberween is the holiday celebrated in Free Country, USA, some characters still make reference to Christmas.
- Dr. Christmas is similar to Santa Claus and presumably affiliated with Christmas in some way.
- In Peasant's Quest, the description of the Super Trinket tells you that "It looks like it can either kill you or make you the hit of your Christmas party."
- In animal, Strong Bad says if he was a made-up animal he'd want to be a Deep Sea Fangly Fish, the kind with Christmas lights and custom lures.
- On the toons menu, the description for Happy Fireworks says "Strong Bad ruins Christmas. Wait, what?"
- Excluding "Decemberween Teen Girl Squad" and "Decemberween in July", all of the Decemberween toons have the word "xmas", an abbreviation for Christmas, in the URL address.
- In Pumpkin Carve-nival, Homsar remarks, "I'm the ghost of Christmas past", a reference to Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
