In reply to Sally@Toddlers on Tour. Sally, That's the idea! Not surprisingly the kids clamor to see Krampus just as much as Santa. Go figure.

If that doesn’t scare the kids into being good, nothing will.
Interesting to see some unusual Christmas traditions that have developed in other parts of the world.

Those costumes look like something out of Hellraiser! Yikes! That scary face would make me want to be good all year.

In reply to Angie (FeetDoTravel). Angie, Krampus is not my favorite Christmas character, but it is interesting that he is Bavarian tradition, and we did enjoy the show.

I watched a movie about the Christmas Krampus so was aware of his existence by goodness me, he really is one scary and ugly looking dude isn’t he! Wow, what a performance to have seen, I would actually like to have witnessed this and your photos are stunning. Thank you for such an interesting post and a different take on Christmas #TheWeeklyPostcard

I’ve lived in Bavaria now for 4 years and only last year I saw them for the first time. They are definitely scary AF! Plus it didn’t help that we heard all over the news last year that in Austria some Krampus hurt some people pretty badly, one even breaking the arm of a little girl. But it would be fun to see them put on a show with fire. Our just walked through town making noise and scaring people. #TheWeeklyPostcard
