KRAMPUS IS COMING: Terrifying Traditions & The Christmas Day Arrests

from Strange Scapes · host Adam and Ronna

Forget the milk and cookies—this year, Santa isn’t the only one coming to town. We’re trading in the "Ho Ho Ho" for some "No No No" as we explore the darker, weirder, and more criminal side of the holiday season.Think you were a little bit naughty? You might want to hide. We’re diving into the legend of Krampus, the horned, goat-like beast who punishes children who didn't make the nice list. From Austrian parades to the terrifying Krampusnacht, we look at why some cultures prefer a side of fear with their fruitcake.If you think hanging stockings is weird, wait until you hear the rest. We’re traveling the globe to find the most unusual holiday customs. These global traditions prove that Christmas is weirder than you ever imagined.Finally, we wrap things up with a story that’s definitely not "merrier." Meet the couple who spent their December 25th in a jail cell instead of by the fireplace. It’s a literal holiday nightmare that proves some people just can't keep the peace—even on the big day.
