What is the definition of Sticks Macabre?

"A 'ticks macabre' is like a macabre puppet show with a woodcut face, where the wooden sticks are the limbs and the whole thing's the twisted tale of a rotting Christmas tree with a side of overgrown crows. Edgy example: 'The 'ticks macabre' of the woods was so bad, even the squirrels started wearing it as Halloween costume.'"
