Krampus (Germany)

My Favorite Bogeymen

My favorite German Legend. Also known as “The Yule Lord” or “The Shadow Of St. Nicholas”. When the Christmas Season. Some folks would be excited. But in Germany, Mostly of December 5th. (Krampus Night) That’s when the Krampus comes to snatch away naughty children in his sack and takes them to his underworld to feed upon them. You better be good and don’t call him Goatman!

Mr. Bogeyman (Ireland)

My Favorite Bogeymen

You better be good. Don’t mock him. And don’t open his music box!!! He’s much scarier than a Banshee! This guy was a Warlock one time and he knows where you hide. Some say, If you open his music box and play his song, he will come out and haunt you till he finally got you in his grasp. He’s no laughing matter…

You better pray that he dosen’t see your future.
