Do you think my 3 yo and 5 yo would benefit from a lesson about Krampus?  They don't seem to take much stock that Santa will give coal, but I think Krampus would have a little more persuasion.  They seem to be acting a little naughty lately!

Sometimes I feel a little more like Krampus this time of year. Does that make me bad? There is so much pressure to be all jolly and Santa-like. It's hard on a person. Wink Santa on one shoulder and Krampus on the other. Sort of a bi-polar holiday. Tongue laughingdp

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

This one's my favorite. "We're just going to sit here rocking for awhile and I am going to jingle these chains. And no you can't have an apple, those are for wife."  laughingdp

there is something distinctly teutonic and terroristic about Krampus...calls to mind Der Struwwelpeter

a German book of children's cautionary tales that can provoke night terrors in the young

my grandmother used to read us stories from it with glee

witness illustration from it:

From Wikipedia -

Krampus is a mythical creature recognized in Alpine countries. According to legend, Krampus accompanies St. Nicholas (Santa Claus) during the Christmas season, warning and punishing bad children, in contrast to St. Nicholas, who gives gifts to good children. When the Krampus finds a particularly naughty child, it stuffs the child in its sack and carries the frightened child away to its lair, presumably to devour for its Christmas dinner.
