Kristen's Belle Memorie

This is where I showcase what inspires me, what I find to be beautiful, and what moves me. I'm a blogger, former wedding and event planner of 16 years, mother, teacher, old goth, romantic, heathen, and so much more.

“Krampus is the dark companion of St. Nicholas, the traditional European winter gift-bringer who rewards good children each year on December 6. The kindly old Saint leaves the task of punishing bad children to a hell-bound counterpart known by many names across the continent — Knecht Ruprecht, Certa, Perchten, Black Peter, Schmutzli, Pelznickel, Klaubauf, and Krampus. Usually seen as a classic devil with horns, cloven hooves and monstrous tongue, but can also be spotted as a sinister gentleman dressed in black or a hairy man-beast. Krampus punishes the naughty children, swatting them with switches and rusty chains before dragging them in baskets to a fiery place below.” -http://www.krampus.com/who-is-krampus.php
