| Today's Happy Undertaker tale is based upon the European legend of the Krampus- an evil mythical being whose job was to punish naughty little kids on Christmas Eve. Krampusnacht, or Night of Krampus, is a yearly celebration held on December 6th during which adults used to dress up as wicked demons to scare their kids into being good. Merry Krampusnacht everyone!

Hehe - it's kinda funny, I was mostly unfamiliar with the Krampus lore until I saw him on that hysterically funny Venture Bros Christmas episode, but now the Krampus pops up somewhere every time I turn around.
