So what is Krampus? The concept isn't new, it's actually as old as Santa Claus himself. In fact, he's part of the original Santa Clause entourage. Britannica describes Krampus as:

"popular legend, a half-goat, half-demon monster that punishes misbehaving children at Christmastime. He is the devilish companion of St. Nicholas. Krampus is believed to have originated in Germany, and his name derives from the German word Krampen, which means “claw.”

In popular culture, Krampus has been gaining popularity. Even being the titular character in his own film in 2015. It was a surprise success at the box office, making $61.5 million against a $15 million budget. The movie also has a 67% approval rating on the site Rotten Tomatoes. All helping to show just how popular Krampus has become in popular culture.
