Better watch out! Something delightfully dreadful lurks in the shadows cast by holiday lights. From Alpine Austrian and German folklore, Krampusnacht (Krampus Night) is when the Krampus--a horned and hooved Yuletide beast--clomps door-to-door to carry away naughty children in his basket. In this beautifully illustrated ode to old European holiday tradition, a little boy named Felix awaits a visit from the Krampus and a festively frightful cast of characters from folklore, including the Yule Cat, Marley's Ghost, Mari Lwyd, and Frau Perchta. Includes a glossary of winter folklore characters.
