Santa is known for giving toys and candy to the nice kids throughout the world, and he would give coal to the bad kids. However, Krampus was replaced by this by the majority of the world. Krampus as known as "Santa's Horned Helper" ,a mythical being in German folklore from the 19th century to present day. Krampus is the opposite of Santa and Santa even sends Krampus after the naughty children. Krampus was much worse than coal.
It is believed that the long-horned, shaggy, goat-like monster with a long, angry face and lolling, forked tongue would visit the home of misbehaving children to punish them. The punishments the children would get could range from beatings to being kidnapped. It was also stated that if a child was to be kidnapped, they would be taken to Hell in a wicker basket for a year, or even eaten by Krampus, never seeing their family again.
To avoid any of these punishments, children would take care especially on the night of December 5th. December 5th was the night that Krampus came to collect the naughty souls of the past year. This night was also known as Krampusnacht or Krampus Night. Children thought they wouldn't catch the attention of Krampus if they were good that night. The next day, Santa would deliver toys to the good children that managed to stay away from Krampus. This day was called Nikolaustag.
The Catholic Church forbade celebrations of Krampus, and fascists in Europe during World War 2 thought Krampus was despicable because it was considered a creation of the Social Democrats. After the war was over, the popularity grew and kept going strong to the present. December 5th is still celebrated in many European countries today. I hope you all have been good this year and continue to be, or else, I'll see you next year.
