"Silent Night,
Scary night,
Krampus creeps up,
To give you fright,
You've been naughty, lazy and bad,
So I'll steal you from your mommy and dad,
Eat you piece by piece,
Eat you piece by piece." -Jon Lajoie The League (sung in the style of Silent Night)
Join Us! As we transition from Spooky Season to Tidings of Good Cheer and discuss the darker side of Christmas, that's right St, Nick's Shadow, KRAMPUS!!!! The Sensational Siblings tackle the ancient origins of this Pagan deity and the modern adaptations. We attempt to explain the rituals and celebrations associated with Krampus in the native tongue...poorly. **SPOILER ALERT** For those who have not seen the 2015 Krampus movie and apologies to those who speak German we do not and we make a poor attempt to, we mean no disrespect. Attempted German words and phrases, Krampusnacht- “Krampus night, Krampuslauf- Krampus Run. Samhain is in fact Celtic. And we announce Disney December and reference Friends, and Santa Clause Is Coming To Town.
