White House Christmas decorations have a long history, with the first indoors tree dating back to President Benjamin Harrison's term in 1889. Since then, the presidential house delivers lavish Christmas decorations each year, to inspire the festive spirit of the US citizens. And as gorgeous as the White House Christmas used to be, it all changed when President Trump's wife, Melania Trump, got her chance to deck the halls. Thanks to the First Lady, this year's Christmas decorations inspired so many funny memes, that even we here at Bored Panda, had difficulty in narrowing them down to one list. It started after Melania Trump's Communications Director, Stephanie Grisham, tweeted a photo of the White House's festive decorations, to which the people responded by hilariously poking fun at what looks like a Tim Burton-designed Christmas horror anti-wonderland.
From The Shining to Pan's Labyrinth, the eerie twig-lined hallway got all the attention and Photoshop it deserved, highlighting that the White House definitely looks more frightening than merry. Scroll down to check out what juxtapositions Internet critics had to offer on Melania's Christmas decorations and upvote your favorite entries!

No one is perfect in this world, but Obama and Michelle were one of the best presidential couple ever lived in White house.
The Dark force awakens! (it actually did, if you think about what is going on)
my pet name for her is *Melancholia* b/c she always seems so depressed
Look closely...there is a big resemblance in Jack's portrayal of a mad man and the donald
Haha, this one is good! I almost spit my drink out when I saw it.
Wait, isn't Voldy already there? I'm pretty sure he took office January 20, 2017
I was just thinking she is in a very dark place both physically and mentally. :o(
They have lived with donald the creep for years and this is what he has done to them.......turn there "Happy, Happy Joy, Joy" to "No- No- No Joy here just us rotting corpses". Silent is there cry for HELP!!! I NEED SOMEBODY
Yes. This was where my thoughts went too. This year's theme runs soul deep.
Ok now with all the lights on it actually looks kinda festive..... if they had just left it like that everything would have been fine..... although my guess is that Trump would melt under direct lighting so this is just what the White House looks like all the time
Bonus points for combining a Slender man reference and a Mr. T reference into a single tweet. #impressive
Don't you think this would scare the s**t out of an autistic kid?
Serious talk now--someone needs to take Melania aside and explain to her that she needs to work on not looking like an adult version of a creepy little girl in a horror movie. The photographer can only do so much.

No fan of the Trumps but I like it, it looks a little more arty than christmassy but thats more my thing.
Thats how I felt too. It doesn't seem very Christmassy, but I do like it. Some of the people complaining are the same ones that have those ugly a*s blow up Christmas decorations in their yard.
