Do you have your boots out, ready for Krampus? It is Krampusnacht, after all. The night that Krampus visits the homes of the ‘naughty’ children; the ones ignored by St. Nicholas. Krampus serves as the counterpart to St. Nicholas, punishing the bad children, while St. Nicholas leaves sweets and gifts for the good children. Krampus is a half-goat, half-demon, horrific beast who literally beats children into being nice and not naughty. Krampus’ appearance is much different than St. Nicholas’, as well. Krampus has massive horns, fangs, is covered in long stringy dark hair, has a long pointed tongue, and the cloven hooves of a goat. He also carries a bell, drags large chains, and retains a bundle of birch sticks to swat naughty children. The worst of the worst children are thrown into his sack and dragged to the underworld. Some believe Krampus originated in Germany. His name is derived from the German word krampen, translating to claw, and is said to be the son of Hel, in Norse mythology. It is said that Krampus was part of Pagan rituals leading up to the Winter Solstice. Ultimately, the origin is unclear, as it is impossible to verify when the legend truly began. Many anthropologists and folklorists believe that the legend has pre-Christian origins, dating as far back as the 6th or 7th century CE. However, no written sources exist before the end of the 16th century. By the 17th century, Krampus was incorporated into Christian winter celebrations, pairing him alongside St. Nicholas. Krampus is the perfect antidote if you’ve had a bit too much of the sugar, spice, and everything nice preaching that tends to accompany the holidays. So, Krampus is coming for all the naughty-makers out there. Are you ready? Was it worth it? #thejaggedpath #krampus #Krampusnacht #merrykrampus #legendofkrampus #christmasdemon #birchswitch #krampusnight #stnicholas (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Clz9kH8NI2x/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Krampus is coming!! I call this design “Keltic Krampus” as I depict the fuzzy fiend in a Celtic style with his long tail and tongue twisted into knots. You can see a misbehaved child in his sack being taken away! 👹👹👹 Original artwork exclusive to @celtichammerclub !!

Christmas is over… but krampus will always be here ✨👹

I had handmade these horns myself from EVA foam ,it would not hold onto my head no matter how I secured it. I ended up just holding them there 😂 This is my version of krampus, so I hope y’all like it.

KRAMPUS IS COMING! My Krampus artwork pictured here is currently available on bottles and apparel! Only at celtichammerclub.com “Krampus time is here. All the children live in fear.” Krampus is a very old Yuletide character with pre-Christian roots. He’s from a time before CocaCola Santa when Christmas and mid-winter festivals were a much more scary time of year. Krampus would punish misbehaving children, and his status as an anti-hero has made the Christmas Demon popular once again! Pictured is artwork I did depicting the ugly face of Krampus, grotesque tongue, horns, and all! 👹👹👹 Original artwork exclusive to @celtichammerclub !! ➖ #celtichammerclub #krampus #krampusnacht #krampuslauf #merrykrampus #yule #yulelord #folklore #keeptheghoulinyule #heathenisthereasonfortheseason #jul #holidays #christmas #traditions #alpine #legend #myth #mythology #devil #demon #christmasdemon #originalart #apparel #original #smallbusiness #gift #giftsforhim #giftsforher https://www.instagram.com/p/CloyHG6uy_M/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
