Biography
According to legend, Krampus accompanies St. Nicholas during the early Christmas season. Depending on the story, Krampus is either a regular demon enslaved by St. Nicholas to do the Saint's bidding, or willingly and gladly works as St. Nicholas's Bad Cop. In the Alpine regions, Krampus takes the form of a giant demon covered in goat, ram, or bear fur, his head sporting large horns with a long, slavering tongue often hanging out of his mouth. Depending on the story, Krampus may have chained shackles on his wrists, signifying his enslavement to St. Nicholas. Generally, though, Krampus will be wearing several large bells (as a warning to any who hears them that he's coming), along with a large wicker basket and birch rod. If someone has been bad, Krampus will either threaten a beating with his birch rod or give one. If his target has been particularly bad, then Krampus stuffs them into his wicker basket and drags them off to punish them for their crimes.
