True, it's not Christian, but giving gifts at the Winter Solstice is a tradition going back to the ancient Greco-Roman civilization. And still, there was no direct mention of Hecate.

And besides, it's a fun film.
X-Mas isn't Christian anymore, right? It's now a secular holiday, so everyone can enjoy it! Ho-ho-ho! I now have a machine gun.
