    A strange Austrian celebration at 5th December (just before St. Nick's day, at 6th December) dealing with demons and such things. A day to scare the children and put your demon mask on – a good excuse to drunk for real or to expelling evil Spirits:
    Krampus
    Krtampus
    Krampus

    There are more images at Monster Brains blog and a interesting article here (a curious note: Santa Claus as a Christian avatar of Thor).

    There's a very good horror short movie that came out last year about that whole "running around dressed as Krampus" thing, called Raunacht. If you speak German, I recommend it highly; no gore, very spooky.

    YES!

    I love that story and highly recommend it. It's in Terry Carr's first New Worlds of Fantasy anthology (1967).

    The Venture Brothers makes up for so much else that Adult Swim airs.

    Edit: hah missed that someone beat me to that reference.
