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.

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

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.
