HGTV is set to bring out yet another real estate show, House Hunters Ho Ho Home, which will be led by Albie Mushaney. He is a real estate broker and Santa impersonator who is also known as a world-famous strongman.

Mushaney will be seen donning Santa Claus’ look while helping homebuyers find their forever home on House Hunters Ho Ho Home. Last year, he did the same thing on the network’s holiday special show, You’ll Be Home For Christmas.

The House Hunters Ho Ho Home star is known as Big Bad Santa by his followers. He is a professional bodybuilder with a beard that looks like Santa, thus, he fits the character perfectly.


Albie Mushaney got a Mrs. Claus

The 48-year-old from Salem, Oregon, is married to Jesse and has five children together (four sons and one daughter). Reports suggested that Mushaney’s wife often dons Mrs. Claus’ look to give his husband company.

Prior to becoming a realtor and the strongest Santa, the House Hunters Ho Ho Home star was a guard at the state prison.

He once participated in the World’s Strongest Man Master in North Carolina. Plus, he started the Big Bad Santa operation in order to collect Christmas gifts for the kids of wounded vets.
