THE KRAMPUS!!! A Christmas Nightmare of a Legend!!

SHOW NOTES: S3-E50  THE KRAMPUS!!! A Christmas Nightmare of a Legend!! In this new episode, we tell you about a legend of nightmarish proportions directly associated with Christmas! The Krampus is a very scary creature. It is a horned entity in Central and Eastern Alpine European folklore who, during the Advent season, is a terror for children who have misbehaved. The Krampus is considered to be a half-goat, half-demon monster in legends. But how did he come about? Where did the legend come from exactly? And what is his relationship to that other key Christmas notable, Santa Claus? Well, we’ll answer those questions and more when we tell you all about The Krampus!
