Long before the birth of Jesus Christ it was traditional to dress up during the winter solstice season, using masks and drama to play old man winter and the horned goat-man. St. Nicholas Day is held on December 6th, traditionally.
On the eve of this holiday, Krampusnacht (Night of Krampus), is held in Austria, Switzerland, Croatia, Germany and other areas throughout Europe celebrating an ancient ritual known as the Krampus Run. During this winter festivity, sin-loving men and women bear torches and dress up as witches, wild beasts and devils, roaming the streets, fueled by alcohol These demons serve to spook the public at large.

I’m not really that naughty…
but I could use, and find, some tutelage here! Help me out.
And happy Krampus Nacht
(it doesn’t sound as fun as it is, I’m guessing)
I want to because it sounds ridiculous
and awesome
Kiss the goat! Krampus got my nose.
Because I wanna sit on Krampus’ lap ;)
I’d love to attend and see who gets crowned Mr. or Ms. Krampus Knacht 2012… since it was me last year :)
I want to be a the naughty witch that I am and really would like to attend, but I can’t go unless I win.
Krampus demands my attendance to this event! Also, Pterodactyls…
Oh the party, the warm nuts, the cozy nog- all look good with my matching sparkling low cut gown and fabulous horns. Make way! Make way! The queen is elbowing her way on the dance floor, to GET DOWN!
I want to forget I’m a broke wage-slave working in Christmas retail hell and treat my friend, who is also broke and working this holiday season. Also, my Krampus costume is AWESOME and I want to “properly” celebrate my German heritage. I have the endorsement of all my child-owning friends.
I need to have an excuse to wear my lovely headdress!
Because I have always wanted to go, have never been able to, and live within stumbling distance.
Because I love dressing up and go all out even on short notice.
Can this top Blow Pony? Isht don’t think so! Prove me wrong Krampus Nacht and give me a free ticket.
This sounds fun! I would love to win tickets.
Dress up party. I’m there.
I love the Nachtlife, I like to boogie.
Bitte sehr!!! This sounds like a down right awesome event, especially since I have a perfect mask that I picked up while living in Germany. Help me revisit good old memories?
Because my friend just moved back to Portland and we’ve been looking for a fabulously naughty reason to let our hair down, our horns show, and let our demons loose among the populous. This would be just the ticket and sounds like a fabulous ride. This will be our first Krampusnacht celebration!
because I want to see Rhianna sit on Krampus’ lap ;)
Yes!!!
I would like to attend because i think this would be a super fun event and i would be able to see a lot of my friends.
My wife is from Croatia and she has told me stories and shown me pictures of these ‘goat-man’ festivals over there and this weekend is her birthday!
It would be a perfect birthday night out, especially since we haven’t had a night out together since the baby, who coincidentally, acts like a goat, trying to eat everything she can get her hands on….
