The 2nd Annual DC Krampusnacht: With the holidays now upon us, we’re all familiar w/ the story of Santa Claus. But according to ancient lore, St. Nicholas actually had several attendants, one of which was the horned satyr Krampus. Whereas St. Nick would reward good little girls & boys, Krampus would punish the bad kids. For ‘truly’ bad children, he’d even carry them off to later be devoured as his X-mas dinner! Celebratory revelers parade through the night, carousing their way through the streets & warn attendant children to be nice.
