S18 Ep139: The Fright Before Christmas: Surviving Krampus & Other Yuletide Monsters w/Jeff Belanger
Darkness Radio Presents: The Fright Before Christmas: Surviving Krampus & Other Yuletide Monsters with Researcher/Podcast Host/ Author, Jeff Belanger!

Christmas time is truly the darkest and creepiest time of the year filled with devilish creatures lurking in the shadows waiting to get us. Best known is the Krampus who has been the subject of films and songs. There was a time in the late 1800s when people sent Krampus cards, not holiday greetings. There are other violent and dangerous monsters from all over northern climes who have been hunting naughty children for centuries. From shapeshifters to mountain trolls, to elves, to heavy-handed cohorts of Saint Nicholas, the Christmas holiday has been filled with ghosts and monsters ready to dole out punishment to those who need it.

The Fright Before Christmas delves into the folklore of Krampus and his friends with the elf-like Tomten and the goblinesque Karakoncolas. The Belsnickel is ready to hit us with his switch of sticks and Gryla may drag you back to her mountain lair. And watch out for the Yule Cat ready to pounce! These are just a few of the yuletide beasties coming for us in The Fright Before Christmas in the hope they can save us from ourselves. 
Jeff joins Darkness Radio today to tell us about these scary creatures, their history, our efforts to revive them, and why we need them more than ever right now!
