Krampus scares bad children in front of the Christmas tree. The picture should be in the style of an Albrecht Durer etching with watercolor added.

Merry Whatever and a happy Festivus for the rest of us.

POV you (innocent child) are about to be beat up by a gang of shitfaced young men with meticulously carved masks and a masterfully crafted demon costume (created for the sole purpose of beating up children once a year) while the whole village cheers them on.

The fact that out of all the traditions, this one we keep around, makes me immensely proud.

This does look like a lot of fun :) It's much better than our blackface tradition, I really hope that one will die out soon.

The children don't look that scared. In fact, they appear to be happily running towards the Krampus...
