Hey everybody, welcome back to another episode of Cryptic Cocktail Party, a show where we have a few drinks, share a few laughs, take a dive into the unknown, I'm your host Dave, joined as always by the Ulog aka Sarge. What's going on buddy? What up? It's the holiday season and I don't have to work for a little more than a week so I have started drinking. I mean what better time than now plus you know? Yeah. Also that's I'm so jealous. I wish my company
works like that where hey you know what? Nothing going on. Let's just not come into work but. There's no reason to be here. We're not accomplishing anything. Yeah. I mean I'm gonna go. I'm gonna do my job the best I can and then you know whatever. I mean it's very different from the world I came from. I mean working in retail, everybody, your life is just one big nightmare working from you know the beginning of the holidays all the way through
12 hour days. Yeah. Now I work for a company where everybody starts their vacation a week before the holidays and doesn't end their vacation until a week after the holidays so I just don't have anything to do for like three weeks and so I'm off for a week but last week I was basically off and the week that I come back will I'll basically be off. That's kind of basically
how it's gonna be where I am. I feel like I earned it you know. I feel like I put in my dues working as a waiter and working in retail and now I'm gonna be a corporate shill and I'm okay with that. I was gonna say this sounds very I was gonna say I don't know I'm a cog in the machine. I get it. I know what I am. I almost said class trader. I feel like that's a little. No because I'm I'm undermining the system from the inside. Gotcha. That's
how you do it. Yeah. I'm just enjoying my time off but I'm still. Yeah but you're still sticking it to the man. Absolutely. Gotcha. Because I'm hourly. Oh yeah me too. I'm hourly so I I can still do overtime and that's how I stick it to the man. Oh you need this done by five o'clock. I get so many other things I need to do after five o'clock now. Yeah it might be like seven. Seven o'clock you know like these things take time. I don't
think you understand that they take time. Exactly. Exactly. All right. Well it's even funnier because I don't even have to lie because we regularly have calls with our partners in California. So I some they're like no you can punch out a couple hours if you want. I'm like no no no no. I'm gonna work until 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time after starting at 8 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. I'm gonna roll with it. You know why would I clock out.
I'll take an extra 15 call it a day. We're good. Exactly. Exactly. All right. So today as I'm sure you know is a is our holiday episode. Yeah. If you're wondering why I'm wearing the Santa Claus hat it actually works really well with the headphones. I was very concerned it was gonna look stupid. It actually looks really good. I wear it well. It looks like it's supposed to fit. Yeah. It's supposed to be that way. Not bad right. Yeah. I didn't
I didn't take 10 minutes to make it look this way. It's fine. But yeah this is a holiday season so I figured we're gonna do a holiday. We'll get into it. But anyway so for the most for most people they associate the holiday season with Santa Claus eggnog and frantic runs to 7-eleven to grab a Christmas card and some scratch tickets the morning of because you forgot to get your dad a real gift which is something I have done several times in
there. I've actually done it so much that when I wrote because you forgot in my script I actually put I forgot which means you tell it on yourself. Hopefully your dad doesn't listen. No my dad doesn't even know how to find a podcast even if he wanted to. Perfect. Perfect. Same with my dad. So we're good. But but since this show is what it is and we are who we are we're gonna bum everyone out and talk about the darker side of the holidays.
Last year we covered Grea and the Yulets. This is before this is before your time. But in keeping in that tradition we're gonna cover another legend in the annals of folklore history and that is Krampus. Now how much do you know about Krampus? I don't I don't know a lot about Krampus. I don't even know where he's from. But what I what I will say is I'm really glad that you didn't do the Scandinavian holiday traditions because they also have a problematic
member of Santa's little little team there. So I we're not going to talk about him. Sorry. So last week's episode after the episode ended we talked about what we might do for this holiday episode and you brought up Swarthy Pete. Oh my god. So racist. So racist. It took everything in my being to not lie to you and say that we were covering something else and then just cover that instead. I mean I mean there's no way to joke about it. So I would
be I'd be out this episode. I'd just be like well huh wow that's crazy. That's crazy. There's a blonde man with blackface. That's problematic. Yeah it's not ideal. It's really bad. But no we're going to cover it. So bad. OK. Yeah I want I wanted to include other different like because for most people they know Krampus as like his Santa's associate or whatever. And there's a lot of other Santa associates out in the wild. But a lot of them like you
said are kind of fucked up and weird. And also there's a lot to Krampus that I didn't know and a lot of history behind him that are. Yeah. It's really interesting. So I was able to fill a whole episode about it. So we're going to do that. So excited. All right. So excited. Krampus has been lurking in the snow dusted alpine regions for centuries like pre-Christian pagan shit like back in the day there was no Christmas Christmas for Krampus
to be associated with. He was more tied to things like the winter solstice rituals fertility gods and even the wild hunt. Basically people feared the dark the cold and the unknown. So with something like the winter solstice where it can't get much colder or darker than that makes sense that like a legend like Krampus would be born to embody those things because my guy does he embody the hell out of them. First of all like dude is just an all around
nightmare just an appearance alone. Never mind the other stuff that we're going to cover. He's described as like he he's basically a part goat part demon part just absolute fucking menace. He's covered in oh good. He's covered in thick matted fur usually black or brown and has these massive curling goat horns sprouting from his head. His face is pretty gnarly. If
you've ever seen it like an artist rendition you know what I'm talking about. He's got sharp fangs a snout like nose and glowing eyes red or yellow depending on who's telling the story. And then there's his tongue. It's a it's long and snake like it's kind of like it's basically it's like a signature feature. I don't know if you've ever seen any artist
rendition. He always says that really long tongue. It's kind of like you know those party favors that are just like rolled up pieces of paper with like a noise maker on the end and you blow it and extends. It's like that. But the tongue of a demon if that makes sense. So it's like a it's like a non-Jewish version of Gene Simmons. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much. Mrs. Krampus is very happy. It took me. It's like everything about being to not make some
sort of connellingus joke or something. That's why I'm on the show. That's what I'm here for. I bring the goods. I bring the goods. So the Krampus figure in one form or another had been around for centuries and people know him today as being Santa's right hand man pretty much. But like but like I said Krampus predates Christmas and Santa by fucking a
long time. I don't know the exact dates when he whatever. But like what happened to these people that they were like you know what we need a goat monster that terrorizes children. Well so yeah. So you're probably wondering how did he become Santa's like closest. Yes. What the fuck is going on here. So when Christianity began to spread through Europe the church they never are. But they were they weren't too keen on pagan figures like Krampus. He
was horned wild connected to fertility and the wilderness. And we just can't have that. That's like a walking PR nightmare for the Christian church. That's everything they're trying to avoid you believing in. But I'm not almost said to their credit. But instead of just like stop stamping like Krampus out of never give credit to the church. Yes. It was like fucking kicking about it there like the church has done so many times before they
decided to co-opt him. Now that is much better. But I mean it's kind of cool they did keep that kind of stuff around. They might have learned something from the Romans where they're like you can keep your fucking things but you force you know I mean. Yeah yeah yeah. Wait till wait till I tell you about where Christmas ornaments come from. The 12th century Krampus was paired with jolly old Saint Nicholas creating essentially like a good cop bad cop
dynamic with the two. The church even added chains to Krampus's imagery symbolizing his submission to Christian authority. So oh that's that's good. Yes. If you're wondering why you think says nothing says Christianity like taking a demon and using it to your advantage. Yeah. It's pretty much like don't like get rid of it. Don't kill it. Yeah. Make it work for you. It was pretty much like we know he's a demon but like look at those chains. He's
a yeah man. Pretty cool. Trying to be hip and cool to the youth today. You guys like demons. We got one. Oh no. But pretty much it went like Saint Nick became the kind and benevolent figure rewarding good children. Well Krampus handled all the dirty work that Santa was too much of a coward himself to do which was to punish the children who were naughty and wicked. So that fucking fat pussy. Fuck you Santa. So what kind of punishments
are we talking here. Well he has a variety of them in his toolkit and they range from mildly concerning to just absolute overkill as far as being a bad child goes. Now the most common punishment a whipping with birch sticks. I'm sure you've all seen the image of your Krampus. We has that bundle of sticks. He uses that to fucking slap kids with it.
Yeah. No he would do it just hard enough to like sting and leave welts. It was meant to be like a physical reminder to fucking shape up but or you're you're out of here kind of thing. But if a kid's behavior was particularly bad Krampus fucking took it up but cranked that shit to eleven. He's been said to shove kids into a sack or basket and cart them off to his lair in the mountains. And from there the stories get a little dark as to what he
does with said children. He might boil them alive drown them in an icy river or simply eat them. Some legends even claim that he will just skip all those steps and drag your kid straight to hell. Oh OK. I mean it's brutal but god damn that's some effective messaging. I mean if you have a shitty kid. Yeah. The threat. He's going to drag you straight to
hell like all the other stuff. Just do it everybody a favor. Yeah. Now specific folklore tales from Krampus like they're few and far between or at least in my search for them which was not very in depth. But there are some that and they vary from region to region but they all share the same theme punish the wicked and reward the virtuous. And I have to say I feel like those are pretty strong adjectives to describe children. Right. Like
wicked wicked and virtuous like whose fucking kids. Yeah. You know it's like your fault if your kids fucked up right. Like parents parents are just like no no. He was born wicked. No you made him wicked. But also I've never seen. I've never seen a kid act up and then like that's a wicked child or a kid being well behaved like that's a very virtuous kid. Like I feel like those are very strong descriptive terms for how a kid should behave or shouldn't
behave. I guess that's a little that's a little much. Yeah. Well anyways in one story in one story Krampus visits a small alpine village on Krampus Knox where he knocks on doors to demand the names of misbehaving children and the parents they were like oh yeah dude my kid fucking sucks and they would list off all the offenses their kids had done that year and then Krampus would haul off like the worst offenders and bring them back to
his lair to do one of the eight things that we just said he might do to your fucking dime out there kids. Yeah. Well we'll circle back to that. Now another tale tells the story of a defiant boy who tries to challenge Krampus and decides he's going to fight the beast with a stick. Krampus just laughs grabs the kid and hauls him off disappearing into the forest. Now when I was looking into these stories they both looters they both were described
as cautionary tales. The second one I get I like don't be a little hellion and you won't be human trafficked by a demon. Right. But the first one I think you caught on to it is that these parents were so ready to get rid of those fucking kids. They were just like oh yeah dude this kid piece of shit. He'll be tell you everything he's done all year
and then you know what if you want to take him that's up to you. Like wild right. Why is it like half the stories from back then like half the fairy tales and just terrible parents releasing their children into the wild or feeding them to Krampus. Yeah. Like they were like no Krampus look my kid is worse like way worse than the kid next door. Like please take my shitty nine year old and just drag him straight down. I'm done with you
Skyler. Fucking right. It's just wild to me that these parents were just on a dime ready to fucking turn heel and just fuck these kids right up. You said you said Krampus was like kind of German right. Yeah it's like that. Yeah. So it's you know it's it's like follows along the same lines as like Hansel and Gretel like shitty parents that are just like well we can't feed you anymore. We're just going to take you out to the woods and hope for
the best. It's pretty. Yeah. Like and those were good kids. What's it also made me think is like did they tell these like that story to their kids like I was used to making behave. That makes sense to me. But like if they're like hey foods a little tight right now it's the year 1400. So like either you act right or we're going to fucking send you off so that way we could have more to eat like we're fucking dying because of you. It had to be
something like that right. Can you imagine the parents like sitting around the dinner table after the kids go to bed and they're like well the plague didn't take Hans. So I guess we got to feed him to Krampus. Fucking at that point just eat your kid. Like yeah. What the fuck. If you're looking to survive. God damn savages. Yeah. But anyways let's let's let's go back to something I mentioned in that first story the one where the parents
fucked up. They die out their kids because they're terrible monsters. Yeah. And that is I mentioned Krampus nacht which translate translated means in German Krampus night. So yeah I wanted to ask about this. Yeah. So what questions do you have. No no no you go. And then if I still have questions after because I feel like a lot of the times I ask
a question and then you're like yeah I was just going to talk about that. So I'm going to I'm going to wait and let you do your thing and then I'm going to come in if I got anything that wasn't cleared up. OK. So every year on December 5th the night before St. Nicholas
Day Krampus emerges to roam the streets. It's like it's a wild night for some of those Alpine towns like people dress up in elaborate Krampus costumes complete with horns masks and chains and parade through the streets and what's called a Krampus love or Krampus run. These events are loud chaotic and often involve fire dances drinking and a whole bunch of just scaring the shit out of children. So it's so it's basically like it's like
the Boston the Santa. Yeah. New York and Boston. Yeah it's basically that but Krampus. Well we have the underwear run to where everybody gets in their underwear and they put on Santa hats and they run down Newbury Street. That's tracks. Yeah. Yeah. So this is basically that except that like instead of women named Becky throwing up eggnog out in front of out in front of like you know high end shops it's women named Olga throwing up eggnog outside
of high end shops. I don't know if there's high end shops but definitely the same. Yeah the same vibes there. It's oh yeah that's true. Yeah. Yeah. Now the tradition of Krampus knocked is it's part festival part performance art and it's been going strong for centuries. Now we're going to fast forward to the 19th century and Krampus starts to evolve. Enter the Krampus carton or Krampus cars. They were they're basically just holiday cards that
either screamed Merry Christmas or run for your fucking life. And these cards are these cards rule. So yeah they're just based they're basically Christmas greeting cards like holiday cards and they either show Krampus chasing kids stuffing them into sacks or whipping
them with like Glee on his face. But they weren't all doom and gloom. Some were uncharacteristically light hearted which was like the Merry Christmas ones that yeah they would show Krampus just like pretty much living his best life drinking schnapps flirting and kissing on women like it's just getting fucking shit wrecked. Yeah. Good for him. Krampus is kind of kind of a freak. It's nice. It's good to see him kind of letting loose after a long day of just
dragging nine year old. Long day of stealing your children. No. So you didn't you didn't answer my question directly but since we've already moved past the timing of this. I just want to make sure I've got this clear. It's the is it like what the 23rd of December is Krampus knocked. It's the fifth. With the fifth of December. Yeah. I've already missed it. Yeah. Fuck. Sorry. This is like a thing that I want to do with my kids. I mean you
could I mean you could have your own Krampus tradition. Doesn't have to. Yeah I'm gonna. You don't have to. I want to I really want to mess with I want to terrify the shit out of my children. OK. There's a there's a Krampus guy in Philly. He does like he dresses up
as Krampus and he does like all these different charity things. So like that he's actually actually tonight at five o'clock he's going to be at this new bar that opened up that serves bone marrow and you can know once you finish the bone marrow you can pay like twenty dollars and lose a shot down the bone marrow like. Oh amazing. Yeah. So we might hit that up after this so I guess the photos of Krampus but yeah you can you can do you can hire a
Krampus to come and terrorize children if you really want to. I'm totally doing that. There's got to be a Boston Krampus. I feel like there's a Krampus in every state that like does things like. Oh yeah. Yeah. And honestly I feel like Krampus Krampus very much has has like South Boston energy. Oh you are fucking dick this Christmas. Guess what you're going to get. You're going to get you're going to get brought right down
to hell you little shit. It's very very towny energy. Yeah. Yeah. Come on little come on little Billy O'Sullivan you're fucked. I feel like Krampus wouldn't be too kind to the Irish either. So I mean it kind of tracks as well. No no one has been kind to the Irish really. Can you blame them. They haven't had a great they haven't had a great. We just lost every listener in Boston. Great. I'm Irish. I can say that shit. I'm part Irish.
I actually know where my family came from. So I'm Irish enough. I've never been there. So I don't call myself Irish but my family you know like everyone else in this goddamn cesspool. All right. They weren't suffering enough in England. They were like hey you know I mean in the UK they were like hey you know what would be great if it was colder and more rocky somewhere. So I just go to Maine. I mean it's fucking 10 degrees right
now in Boston. So that's fair. All right. We're moving on now. But again fuck the Irish. It's fine. Now fast forward again. And by the early 20th century Krampus wasn't exactly on everyone's in everyone's good graces. The rise of more wholesome Christmas imagery like the Coca Cola Santa aka capitalism and consumerism pushed Krampus back into the shadows where
he kind of rightfully belongs. Yeah. Yeah. But also we can't forget you know everyone's favorite type of people the fascists in the 1930s Austrian fascists actually banned Krampus calling him a dangerous symbol of paganism and immorality. Even the Nazis who later on tried to sanitize Christmas traditions they gave Krampus the cut which is weird to me because the Nazis they kind of loved all that weird occult pagan shit. You know what I mean.
Yeah. I mean nothing really says Nazi like a guy who steals people's children. True. And I didn't include this in the script but there was I mean this didn't exist back in the pagan times but there are some Krampus depictions out there that may or may not be kind of anti-Semitic in their portrayal of me not like the obviously they're they're making that shit up. It's not the you mean like but you would think I feel like Krampus
really fit into what the Nazis would fucking be stoked on. Am I wrong? Right. Is that was it for me to say that? I'm not I'm not. Yeah. I'm not pushing in the very fact. I'm not pushing. The very fact that they pushed him away is probably you know what what lost them the war. Actually if you've ever read Man in the High Castle it's basically what would happen if the Nazis had kept Krampus into. Oh okay. Yeah. Okay. But it was said that Krampus just
didn't quote unquote fit their vision. Whatever the fuck that means. That makes no sense. If anything fits their vision of severity and taking it up maybe too many notches. Yeah. It's fucking Krampus. To go from light lashing with a stick to dragging straight to hell. Yeah. Yeah. When you think of like Weimar Germany and then Nazi Germany like Krampus should have been flourishing in Nazi Germany. That's what I'm saying. I feel like we're
doing like PR right now for Nazis. Krampus and Nazis. Yeah. Well I mean they did take over America. So it's like if Man in the High Castle were written by Mike Judge. That's actually pretty good. But where's the thing. So even though the Nazis and the whatever the Austrian government like they banned it but in rural alpine villages like Krampus never really left locals. You're never going to take it away. Yeah. The locals are always
going to keep it. Yeah. They kept that tradition alive passing down through generations and by the mid 20th century Krampus came roaring back like Krampus knocked and the Krampus left that the chaotic Krampus parade where costumes people ran through the streets and terrified the children. Those became a staple in Austria and Germany which Krampus was both banned. So it makes sense that when they were finally able to celebrate it again it came
back in full fucking force. This time it had even more theatrics than before. More fire better costumes but it was still mixed with like the centuries old traditions and like just enough chaos to keep it fun. You know what I mean. Yeah. Yeah. So by now Krampus was no longer just like a scary myth. He was like being celebrated in a way that he wasn't celebrated before which is fucking awesome. I love it. I love it. You love it so much.
But the Krampus revival like didn't stop there by the late 20th century he started creeping into like global pop culture. Like we didn't really hear about Krampus in the States for a long. I mean we kind of had a vague idea of what it was but like it really started like the late 20th century. So like there's a 2015 trash fucking horror movie called Krampus that turned him into like a full blown Christmas villain. He's shown up in TV shows like Supernatural,
American Dad and of course you can't forget the merch. No the office. He was in the office too Dwight Schrute. So that wasn't Krampus. That was. Oh it wasn't. Belschnickle which is kind of like Krampus. It's the same thing but he was a person not a demon I think. That's like that's like Pennsylvania Dutch. Well that sucks. I was really I well now I'm now I'm mad. I don't know why I thought that was Krampus. I'm so annoyed with that. Well no
it's because it's basically the same thing. Like it's a dude. Germany just has too many things that hate you at Christmas time. I think it's one of those things where like the Pennsylvania Dutch came over and then they just kind of made their own version of it if that makes sense. Okay. Okay. He has all the same vibes. He has the sticks that he whipped people with. Yeah. That whole thing but I think Belschnickle was a person. It
wasn't a demon. Okay. Okay. Although I guess a demon can pretend to be a person. I don't I don't fully know. I didn't look I didn't research Belschnickle. I researched Krampus. I have no fucking idea. This is a Baba Yaga situation. It's getting away from us. Yeah. But like I said Krampus nowadays is on everything. You got ugly Christmas sweaters, beer cans, you got the sick fucking t-shirt. Krampus not. Such a good metal album. Yeah. Like you
name he's on everything. So Krampus now at least here he's officially become more like the modern holiday lineup. You know what I mean? Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah. But here's the thing Krampus isn't just about scaring kids or selling merch. He's a he's a symbol of balance. Winter is dark and cold. Like life isn't all candy canes and carols. And Krampus reminds us that with joy comes consequences with light comes shadow. He's the yin to Santa's
yang. But whether you see him as Santa's jolly, chubby yang, but he's a thick boy. But whether you see him as you know, a scary Christmas cryptid or what have you a misunderstood anti hero or just a goat demon doing his job. Krampus is here to stay. You know, he survives centuries, fascists, bad movies, you know, and he's, he's still around and making sure that we don't forget, you know, like the darker side of the holiday. So there you go. That is the
story of Krampus. It's I love him. Yeah, it's not a lot. I learned a lot more than I thought. I was, I, I thought I knew pretty much whatever there was. He's a guy or demon that just beats kids until they're good again. Turns out he's kind of a nightmare and will murder your children and obviously the parents are cool with it because they're willingly giving them up to him, which is wild. So Sarge, how are we feeling about Krampus? What have we learned? What
does it take away? You have any questions, concerns? I might be able to answer some of them. I have no idea. I mean, as somebody who appreciates a good Baphomet, I love that there's a Christmas version. It kind of is. Yeah. Yeah. I have, I actually, this is, this is one. Just be like the actual Christmas version. Shh. Don't, don't do that. It's like, I have a Baphomet that hangs on my Christmas tree and then I have the one that hangs behind
me. Um, but also having, having like, yeah, especially you all related Baphomet would be. Yeah. I love it. I think it's great. It's kind of the vibe that he has. I want my kids to embrace it. I want my children to be terrified. Well, now that you know when it is when Krampus Noct is, and you know all this stuff, you can easily just start doing
that. Just ruin your kids lives. Make them, well, no, I mean, they're old enough now where they know like, Oh, dad just got a good idea in his head and we're all going to have to suffer it for a year. Yeah. You know, they, they won't be scared. They'd just be like, Oh Christ. Yeah, dad. No, I did. He's real scary. Krampus is terrifying. Krampus could
be terrifying if you hired an actual Krampus to come and hit your kids with a stick. No, I'm thinking I'll just get some stilts that look like goat legs and a long cloak and some birch sticks and just, uh, you know, annoy the shit out of my kids for a night. Doesn't sound terrible. I feel like it would be a fun tradition. Yeah. And then if that doesn't work, you can just drag them straight to hell. Straight to hell. Going right down there.
Oh shit. They're not bad because I was a bad parent. Satan. They're bad because they're just bad kids. Yeah. They're bad because society. Yeah. It's, it's the, it's the, it thanks Joe Biden. Violent video games, you know, all this sugary soda, yellow dye number five. These kids are out of control. We got to do something about it. It's too much. It's a lot with that, with their Tik Toks and whatnot. Thank God that's going away soon. Oh shit.

of all the normal sizes, small, medium through large. I guess he's also got a couple two XL and one three XL left. So head to the hellmouth paranormal.com. You can get your own Krampus knocked box. It's pretty sick. He's a good friend of mine, so definitely go support him at the hellmouth paranormal. Also, he's a tattoo artist at Grim North tattoo in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. So definitely go check that out. Follow him, Josh Belanger, all that stuff.
So yeah, with that out of the way, happy holidays and Narragansett. Yeah. Drinking Narragansett. They got a cool Christmas can now. This holiday is going to be goddamn miserable for everyone. You need to deal with your racist uncle at dinner. So it would be a lot easier if you had an arrogance at logger in your mouth. Yeah. Or if you're the racist uncle, maybe drinking Narragansett while contemplating outside of an open window, you know, really
deeply thinking about your life choices and maybe consider changing your ways. Maybe Narragansett can help you with that. Yeah. Figure out why everybody hates you and stop doing it. All right. So again, thank you guys so much for listening. We really appreciate it. Have a happy holiday, whatever, you know, or whatever. Who fucking cares? Sarge, do you want to say goodbye and I love you? Goodbye and I love you.
