Brad Paisley's 2020 Elf on the Shelf Displays Are a Must-See

​

Paisley's first post in his 2020 series featured his family's elf hiding amid bottles of alcohol. "Well well well... Look who's back in town," the West Virginia native captioned the clip, which was set to Alan Jackson's "Please Daddy (Don't Get Drunk This Christmas)." "Here we go....," commented Williams-Paisley.

​

The next placement was inspired by Hank Williams Jr.'s "A Country Boy Can Survive," which served as the soundtrack to a video of the elf hiding in a nature scene that featured a tree branch, pinecones and gold reindeer. "A miniature sleigh, and eight tasty reindeer," Paisley wrote. "A country elf can survive."

​

For Day 3, Paisley called on The Avengers, casting his elf as Iron Man and hanging him from a rope to give the appearance of flying. Other action figures of additional superheroes were nearby, including other Marvel characters as well as several DC Comics heroes.

"Avengers...Elfsemble," the singer captioned the setup. "Move over Iron Man. Meet ...Iron Elf. And friends." His wife aptly commented, "This is surprisingly creepy for a fun Christmas display...."

​

A different movie universe was on display in Paisley's next creation, which focused on Star Wars. "May the Christmas force be with you...," he captioned a video of his elf with a lightsaber in hand ready for battle.

​

The superheroes returned for Day 5, navigating a minefield of cotton in a dramatically staged snowball fight that Paisley set to Jerry Lee Lewis' "Great Balls of Fire." "Snowball fight!" he exclaimed.

​

Paisley's latest setup is perhaps his most elaborate yet, a play on the Disney+ show The Mandalorian that featured the elf wearing a helmet similar to the show's titular character. Sticky notes reading "This is the way" pointed to the fridge, where various action figures were put on ice.

"'I can bring you in hot, or I can bring you in cold...,'" Paisley quoted in his caption. "This is the way."
