NoDa Krampus Krawl - Charlotte On The Cheap

Krampus is a not-so-beloved figure in Central European literature. You could say he’s Santa’s enforcer, or the evil side of Santa. He’s not that nice of a guy.

What to do if you see the Krampus

Traditionally, here how it has worked. If you see Krampus coming, and you’re “nice,” ask one of the Krampus wranglers for a free magical elf halo that will protect you from Krampus’ wrath. If you’re “naughty” ask for a set of horns. I honestly don’t know what will happen to you, but Krampus might let your loved ones take a picture to remember you by.
