The magic of the holiday season continues with the new X-Men '97 Fireside video. The [virtual fireplace](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miller-lites) brings forth a nostalgic feeling that creates a cozy crackling space which is enhanced by some animations and sounds that honor the X-men universe. The X-Men '97 Fireside video can be accessed online on [Disney+](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/agatha-all-along-1) and [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonic-the-hedgehog-2), which is a great background video to play during the holiday season.

It has small Easter eggs to look for as just over the flames are stockings that are labeled with the iconic characters. It includes Jean Grey, Storm, Wolverine, and more. There is also a portrait of Professor Charles Xavier wearing a holiday sweater and watching over the scene. It will be available throughout the season.
