Description From wikipedia:
Krampus is a mythical creature who accompanies Saint Nicholas in various regions of the world during the Christmas season, especially Austria. In the Alpine regions, Krampus is represented by an incubus-like creature. While Saint Nicholas gives gifts to good children, the Krampus warns and punishes bad children.

Though the outcome is more like a Goblin shaman or something.

Krampus, in Mexican culture, is the Lover or St. Death.

Where's the painting of St. Nick and his eight legged horse that can jump 100's of feet into the air?

omg, I am glad Krampus looks totally different in my home country. Such a creature would scare me (as little child) to death. Its head is very eerie *siver*.

We also have a Krampus in Hungary, and it looks like a small devil
