Refugees in Austria told ‘don’t be afraid of Krampus the child snatching Christmas Devil’ :
When cultures collide..
From the IRISH MIRROR: Officials in the Austrian village of Virgen are worried its traditional festival of Christmas Devils where Krampus runs amok trying to snatch children will cause panic among Syrians and Iraqis new to the country.
The Christian St Nicholas tradition has long involved Krampus.. For as long as memory serves, there have been Krampus festivals go coincide with December 6.
And now it appears that an influx of refugees will get pretty freaked at the notion that in leaving a war torn life their children may be at risk of being taken by a demon and killed..
You escape DJinn and get a beast from the East Christmas demon.. A world full of paranormal anguish indeed.
