Krampus 2011by ~Boatwright

Cartoons & Comics / Digital Media / Cartoons / Drawings

Krampus is a mythical creature recognized in Alpine countries. According to legend, Krampus accompanies St. Nicholas (Santa Claus) during the Christmas season, warning and punishing bad children, in contrast to St. Nicholas, who gives gifts to good children. When the Krampus finds a particularly naughty child, it stuffs the child in its sack and carries the frightened child away to its lair, presumably to devour for its Christmas dinner.

I love this design! He looks so organic, which makes him extra creepy and amazing!

Used To Live In Germany During Grade School, And One Of My Teachers Told Me About This Guy. I Didn`t Sleep Christmas Eve. And It Wasn`t Because I Was Excited.

I thought he roamed the streets whipping bad children and chasing after women. but eating sounds bad too. would def keep a kid feared into being good.

I copied pasted from Wikipedia just to have some quick background info. I'm sure each region has slight variations on what he does.

So how did you find out about him?

~Boatwright Dec 30, 2011 Professional General Artist

He showed up in the Venture Bros Christmas special a few years back. I looked him up and become fascinated with Nordic Christmas traditions. They've got like 12 guys or so that come on the 25th.

He only gets the naughty ones. So don't pity them as they must deserve it.
