Product Details
Overview
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen . . . but do you recall the most petrifying Christmas figures of all? Not all children fear just a lump of coal in their stocking. Discover the terrifying Yuletide fables that have horrified children for generations with this stunning leather-bound edition of the Christmas best-seller.
He sees you when you’re sleeping, he knows when you’re awake. He knows if you’ve been bad or good, so be good for goodness’ sake. This lighthearted song is a bit more threatening in the context of other Christmas traditions. From beasts that threaten to cook children into stew to sinister crones who snatch little ones from their beds, you won’t find any dancing sugar plums here. Outside of the heartwarming Christmas tales we all know and love, there are an abundance of frightening tales to chill all who hear them to the bone. Discover these stories from all corners of the world, including:
- Krampus (Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, and northern Italy), a demonic half-goat monster who drags chains and whips bad children with birch sticks, or stuffs them in his sack to take away
- The Kallikantzari (Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, and Turkey), goblins who come out during Advent to cause mischief and evil
- Père Fouettard (France, Belgium, Switzerland), Saint Nicholas’ eternal cannibal manservant who deals with naughty children
- Hans Trapp (Alsace-Lorraine, France), who roams the countryside disguised as a scarecrow and goes door to door on Christmas looking for children to feast upon
- Gryla (Iceland), the giant ogre who emerges from her cave on Christmas to hunt children and cook them into stew
- Mari Lwyd (Wales), a creature with a horse’s skull and a long cloak that is followed by a group of chanting people
- Frau Perchta (Austria and Bavaria), who slits the bellies of bad children and stuffs them with straw
These tales are sure to leave you wishing for the Grinch. Whether you’re a fan of history and folklore, you love learning about different cultures, or you just want to give a holiday gift that will bring the joy of Christmas to that lucky someone (just kidding), The Scary Book of Christmas Lore is for you. ’Tis the season! Is it beginning look a lot like Christmas, yet?
