How Krampus Became the Christmas Demon That Hunts Naughty Children
Long before Christmas became lights, gifts, and carols, Alpine villages warned children of a horned, hoofed creature who wandered winter nights. Krampus—half demon, half beast—was said to punish the wicked and drag the truly unruly into the darkness. This is the ancient story behind Santa’s terrifying shadow.

THE FEARSOME LEGEND OF KRAMPUS (links and video credits are at the bottom of the read) In ancient times, a dark, hairy, horned beast was said to show up at the door to beat children, and carry them off in his sharp claws.
