Krampus,
Character illustration
The Krampus is a demonic anthropomorphic figure in the central Alpine folklore during Advent saison and something like the bad cop of Saint Nicholas (Santa Claus). The pair visit children on the night of 6 December, with Saint Nicholas rewarding the well-behaved children with gifts, while the badly behaved ones receive punishment from Krampus with birch rods.
