• .Behind the mystique ofthe mall Santa

JT LANGLEY The Santas are everywhere. This Contributing Writer mall Santa sits at Fashion Square Mall waiting for toy inquiri~s. ach year, from mid-November to Christmas Eve, malls across the U.S. transform into gaudy winter wonderlands. SARAH ROGERS / CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE The mall Santa mania infects shoppers with a holiday fever, and Fri­ day's "Hollyville" celebration at the Mall ofMillennia was nothing short E of the trend. · The mall Santa, the fat man with the white beard, shrouded in mys- tery in the open, is now a mask unveiled ~ There he sat, dressed for the role: Red suspenders and tacky white shirt with green trim and sleigh-bells, in hand in all of his glory, hunkered down in a fold-up chair, the man only known as "Santa Larry'' nursed a soda, hidden behind a long, dark corridor and a waiting room with a lock code door. "It all started when I decided to grow my beard out," Santa Larry said "Chil­ dren started asking me if I was the real Santa, and I couldn't say no. That was 12 years ago, and I haven't shaved since." · · I studied his habits, testing the limits of my invasion and for a few quiet moments I was alone with Father Christmas. He was everything promised - flowing white beard and bulging gut - the perfect image of the man who suppos- edly squeezes his way down chimneys. · · The mall Santa, fixated to his throne drew in the crowds for a glimpse of the legend Fake snow speckled the ground, inflatable snow globes blocked causeways and pine-scented floor wax lingered in the air. · · Stilt-walking reindeer paraded Mrs. Claus throughout the stores while Bing Crosby Christmas carols lulled through the airways, bringing to life the depiction ofwhat the North Pole might be like. Not a barren ice sheet, but a cozy village where gingerbread houses are real, and ·candy canes grow as high as the trees. Children, told never to approach a stranger, were cautious at first. But for the promise of gifts, Kris Kringle turned from stranger to friend, initiating another child into the holiday hysteria · Gregg Dobbs, owner of Theme Street Pictures and the ringleader of the event, revealed the origin of the mysterious man. Dobbs employs his naturally-bearded S~ta Clauses from Santa for Hire, an Internet-based booking agency with a surplus of Santa Claus actors. Its Website, www.santaforhire.com, states, ''Taking the next step in pro­ viding quality Santas." It began to seem that these false St. Nicks were merely captives purchased from an underground holiday black market to be displayed in shop­ ping malls and business parties all over America ·"I do it for the children," Santa Larry said ''The way they light up as they run over to see me is the special thing that keeps me com­ ing back If people want to believe that I'm Santa, I'll be Santa for them." The role of mall Santa seems easily created - find a man with a white beard and­ near-obese proportions, slap on the red pants and coat, and stick that North-Star twinkle in his eye. With a few elf-dressed flunkies and a cardboard toyshop set, the spirit of Christmas comes to life. "I've always wanted to bring Santa Claus to life,'' Dobbs said. "There's no cheap refrigerator photos here and that's the difference we make. We give customers that
