I'm looking for an old adventure I remember Wizards putting out at some point around the 4th ed era (or at least that's when I remember reading it, though it might have been from late 3.5 times). It was something of a "holiday special" sort of adventure where the players find themselves in a town on something similar to Christmas Eve. The twist is that there is no Santa delivering gifts, but instead an adult red dragon comes to town and goes house to house demanding tribute. Those that fail to pay up are reduced to coal inside their homes. The party then has to contend with the dragon and bring back everyone's stolen goods in time for "not-Christmas."
I've searched through about every Dungeon and Dragon magazine I could think of from around that time and, for the life of me, I cannot find it. Does this holiday adventure ring any bells with any of the rest of you and can you point me to where it might be found?

Never mind, I found it. It was called "The Longest Night" by Chris Sims, and was published in the 4th Ed Dragon Annual.
