What Is Krampus?
Krampus combines many Pagan figures and traditions. In Bavaria today, Krampus is a terrifying half-goat, half-demon creature sporting a leather or wood mask, thick furs, and haunting cowbells. The Krampus traditionally would punish or reward children based on the strict Christian “bad vs. good” moral model. Today, the Krampus act as companions to St. Nicholas, visiting homes on December 5th.
This thrilling yet threatening art of driving out evil is an insane cultural event not to be missed. You too may be deemed naughty, fit for a lashing!
