  • Um my stepsis faved this and i wanted to see why she faved it..just curious. But i learned my lesson...ILL NEVER WATCH THIS CREEPY VIDEO AGAIN!

  • Damn voidmaid, I wish I was your grandpa in those days. I would've let grandma tell you the Krapus story and then put out your favourite candy in a dish telling you you couldn't have any. When you sneaked a piece I would pretend not to notice then go outside and dress as Krampus and bang on the door demanding to speak to you. When you came to the door I would tell you I would take you away at Christmas time and kill your grandparents if you didn't tell them what you did

  • I wanna be krampus for a day

  • You the licking of children sounds more like Santa is trying to make pedophile porn.

  • I'm a mixture of giggles and tears after watching this. When I was little my grandmother threatened me with the Krampus legend whenever she thought I was misbehaving while visiting her for the holidays. So on one hand this 'carol' reminds me of those precious Christmas family moments as a child, but on the other hand it reminds of the traumatic times I spent envisioning a child-abusing devil creeping through the snow-covered deciduous woodlands of rural Wisconsin.

  • To those complaining this is practically a story about Zwarte Piet, known in the Netherlands as "Black Peter". If this character was called and depicted as Zwarte Piet you'd probably be crying about racism. Get over it.

  • That was terrifying.

  • So for the next generation, we all tell our kids that there's a demonic buddy of Santa's that's hellbent on eating naughty children, agreed?

  • Well, I'm now scared of Germany.

  • lol

  • This is sick...in a bad way. All children do some bad things only because they cant really think yet, because their brains are still developing and the dumbass just made a video on Christmas child abuse and homicide! Your a real jackass you know that ZPZnetwork.

  • @Icter2 You are aware that Krampus is a very old part of European Christmas tradition right? This video is just showing a darkest side of Christmas from a non-American perspective.

  • @Icter2 tell that to the ancient traditions this was based on. check out krampus or frau perschta on wikipedia sometime.

  • "Maybe later we can meet at the beer garden" <3 Krampus

  • Super Awesome. This is now my favorite Krampus video.

  • anyone else find it funny how krampus hits the girl like chris brown hit rhianna

  • I love that there's a picture of Pope Benedict on the wall.

  • Could have been written and acted better.

  • @trolovski, shut up. just shut up. and you too LoonaBimperton!

  • Santa turns out to be creepy. When my offspring was young and I was doing, as most mothers do, the bulk of the shopping, wrapping, prep for xmas, I found the Santa mythology really irritating. Mrs. Santa hardly gets a mention. How typical, women do the work, men get the credit. So to find out Mr. Claus is in a partnership with a sociopath is not surprising at all. It's a wonder we make it through the holidays. Pour me some eggnog, would ya please?

  • @LoonaBimberton how about some prozac instead nutcase, go piss on someone else's good time

  • @rroose45 You're the one getting your panties in a bunch, but she's the nutcase. Oookay...

  • Krampus is coming! And he's bringing his birch twigs with him...

  • i have a feeling I'm not sleeping at night.

  • I do not understand why a story about child eater that visits you on Christmas is wildly spreading into the USA. While I honestly welcome Krampus integration into Christmas (which is pagan itself), and wouldn't mind different versions of Krampus, people should be aware that the tale about Krampus is of Pagan origin, and that Krampus is presented as a companion of Saint Nicholas, not Santa Claus. And while there is a tale of beatings and kidnapping. there is no mention of ''child eating''.

  • buaaaaaaaaa pobre chibi prussia!!!

  • You actually credit yourself for this?

  • lol its wrong to laugh at this but i cant hold it

  • yeah i am here from Prussia diaries as well. Leave it to Austria, Germany, and all those other countries to come up with the most creepiest Christmas ever .

  • Quality. Bourdain is brilliant,

    See the good mangers at Coca-Cola would not like Santa being all evil so this information has to be kept from delicate citizens of the U.S.A.

  • YES, knee to the face! 1:51

  • Go Team Venture!

  • Comment removed

  • @skyrocketmedia Everything. That's what.

  • Comment removed

  • @skyrocketmedia Don't blame him! Blame the Austrians and/or Germans for coming up with the story in the first place!

  • When I have kids I'm going to tell my children about Krampus and say" Yeah, we're not supposed to believe in it, but I would ask that kid 3 houses down about it really."

    And when my kids tell me there was no kid down the street, I'd just smile.

  • @darkmattersunshine you sir are a genius

  • Santa is a narc.

  • christ, he just beat and dismembered those kids. thats awesome!

  • By far the best Xmas video I've seen. Kids should be aware of Krampus!!!

  • wait: why did santa give them presents, if they were naughty enough to get grabbed by krampus?

  • Krampus isn't going to pay them a visit...he's going to pay them...uh, what's that called? Oh! A beating! That's it...Krampus is going to pay them a beating!

  • Comment removed

  • lololol

  • I laughed.

  • this is horrifying

  • 1:52 THIS. IS. KRAMPUSSS!!!!!

  • They need to bring back Krampus. The kids these days need the fear of Krampus in their little hearts. Just getting a lump of coal is really not that harsh...especially now that fuel is so damn expensive.

  • krampus just beat the shit outta those kids!

  • That the thing Joe Rogan talked about?

  • krampus is a badman lol

  • wait a minute... those children already had presents from Santa meaning they were good. Did Krampus get the wrong house? O_o maybe it was the one with the lights turned off across the path.

  • @andrielisilien part of the legend is that krampus will come back and take presents if kids are bad.

  • @synthetase00 lead them into a false sense of security, eh? LOL

  • @MissAlpacaFairy I got here from that too. XD I bet Hungary might get someone to dress like Krampus or something.

  • Krampus scarryies me :(

  • @MissAlpacaFairy

    Same here LOL

    

  • Well, Coca-Cola started the Santa we see now. It is thought that Santa was based on Odin. Personally, I enjoy the idea of Krampus; it's far better than just coal. Germans also have Shock-headed Peter, a book of manners in which children who are rude or slovenly tend to meet horrible ends.

  • . . . Prussia better watch out.

  • The whole entire time I was like "What the heck?....WHAT THE HECK! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT! HOW THE FUCK WAS THAT CHRISTMAS! D:> and I thought Santa was suppose to be nice."

  • beer garden? how delightfully german. ^^

  • OAO" If I heard this when I was little I'd be super scared on X-mas....

  • 2:05 oh mai gash!!

  • Got here from chibi Prussia diaries anyone?

  • @Bubblewrap990 Does that mean Finland is friends with Krampus?! Oh goodness, Prussia's in trouble...

  • @Bubblewrap990 Guilty~ -epicface-

  • @Bubblewrap990 .......maybelolol

  • @Bubblewrap990 I did. did you see 032?

  • @Bubblewrap990 HELLZ YES!!

  • @Bubblewrap990 Oh gott poor little prussia! D:

  • @Bubblewrap990 i did!

  • does anyone else find it hilarious when santa says, "Go Get'em Krampus" like he is totally enjoying the whole experience

  • I grew up with a very similar tradition called Belsnickel. He visited us on December 6 and made us say our prayers then gave us treats. I heard about children being carried off but I never was. Whew.

  • Santa is a BASTARD! He goes around favoring the "good" children, and then he cheerfully sics Krampus on the "bad" children! Makes you wonder what he does with reindeer who get too old to fly.

  • @SenseOrSensibility That's not a problem since Santa uses magic dust to get them flying. At least that's what Cheech and Chong say...

  • @SenseOrSensibility

    Pretty much like a religion. Wow, God is so nice and merciful, but if you don't believe in him, he will send you in hell to endure unspeakable horrors and pain for all eternity.

  • In retrospect, were the crimes of the children really all that bad? Did it really warrant being licked, whipped, torn to shreds, and carried off into the darkness as dismembered corpses by a hell beast!?!

  • @chrissyj84

    I know, if I did that and some guy did that to me, my parents would beat him with a shovel LOL

  • This just turned Christmas into the scariest holiday ever :|

  • -___- that video isn't right and it's x~mas! this video is so wrong! ><

  • Now that was a heartwarming tale of why you should be good....ALL THE TIME! He, He, He!

  • oh yeah...this is awesome!!!!!! lol

  • This reminds me of some pretty sweet Krampus Cards you can get at: storenvy.com/products/180193-k­rampus-holiday-cards

  • Fröhliche Weihnacht >:)

    ~Krampus

  • This is the most disturbing Christmas story ever!

  • Who is in the picture at 1:44?

  • @specter707 It's the Pope.

  • @specter707 The Pope

  • Bourdain RULES!

  • Originally he doesn't go with santa for Christmas, as Santa is not a part of this culture... Christmas is about Jesus and not an old man giving away presents. Krampus is St. Nikolaus' sidekick who scares naughty kids on december 6th... and I don't think people should jugde other cultures because of a short film (that didn't get all the aspects right) they saw... but the film is really beatiful, even though it gives me the creeps...

  • Guillermo del Toro (the kreator of Pan's Labyrinth) should create a movie about Santa and Krampus! That would be awesome!!!!!

  • Excellent Video! Absolutely beautiful!

  • omg wtf LOL

  • @JohnWoo *rapes thumbs up*

  • I always pronounced it Kr- ahh-m-pus.

  • Krampus....lol....Make me interested in xmas all over again!

  • Most of the kids in my neighborhood need to meet Krampus; although in all fairness, so should their parents. It's the parents who turned them into the entitled, rude, selfish, spoiled little bundles of whine that they are.

  • Eccl. 9:5, 10: "The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all . . . All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol,* the place to which you are going." (If they are conscious of nothing, they obviously feel no pain.) (*"Sheol," AS, RS, NE, JB; "the grave," KJ, Kx; "hell," Dy; "the world of the dead," TEV.)

  • Rom. 6:7: "He who has died has been acquitted from his sin." so how can one be acquitted of their sins @ death yet still be punished? That would make God a liar and we know thats not true.

  • Did Krampa made the boy bj him? o_O

  • Yes but not as a place of torment for sinners. That's why I said twist the scriptures. Please give ne the scripture where it says that there is a place that so bad people go after death where they are punished by the devil for eternity in a place called hell.

  • This is beyond creepy.  Has anyone noticed his left foot? And what is that in his right hand.?

  • The clergy lies by twisting scripture to scare them with the lie about hell so their members and most important their money stays apart of the church. Don't listen to me please do your own research.

  • @Kross2009. Your right. As a true Christian I follow Gods word and last I checked the same bible that didn't teach of Jesus's birthday being celebrated there is also no where in the bible that does teach of a tormenting place where so call wrong doers go called hell. They are both lies. One was to draw the pagan masses at the time to the church by taking there pagen holiday(s) in return for their membership and to make it seem holy they will just change the name to Christmas and then

  • @0589marita Sorry but there is several references to Hell in the New testament.

  • How very Robot Chicken of him.

  • Very cool, just wish they had gotten the pronunciation right: Krahm-poose.

  • This is so veeery bizarre!!!

  • Another reason to add to the long list of why a true christian shouldn't take part in such a page,demonic unbiblical celebration such as Christmas. It's disrespectful to even associate Jesus Christ with such lies. Smh! Satan has SO many blind.

  • @0589marita Is it so different from the Christian Myth of heaven and hell? Behave yourself and do as you're instructed and be rewarded, or be punished and tortured for acting outside of the strict guidelines. The parallels seem rather obvious.

  • @Kross2099 Being a Christian isn't about works. Even if you claim Christ and do good works but do the works with the wrong motive it's actually evil. Jesus paid the price and did the work for us so we could have what we don't deserve. We don't do good to be saved. We do good because we are saved. I'm not trying to be a dick or start a huge stupid argument like everyone else does on here. There is just HUGE misconception of what it is to be a real Christian.

  • @swl stop pissing in the youtube cheerios with your bullshit rhetoric

  • The 'Krampus' figure is as known as St.Nicolaus in Austria: his 'day' is Dec. 5th, the day before St.Nicolaus, and in every town in western Austria people dress up as Krampus to frighten the children. In other parts of the Alps he goes by different names; in Tirol, certain villages have huge crowds watching as hundreds of 'Krampus'es roam the streets reminiscent of Pamplona in Spain. In Scandinavia he has survived as 'Julebukk', still horned and evil, chasing children at Yuletide.

  • In other parts of the Alps he is sometimes even female, and goes under names like 'Perchta', Belsnickel, Zwarte Piet, Le Père Fouettard, Knecht Ruprecht, Namahage, Grýla, -as female, this character can also be both a which and a beautiful woman ('Schön-perchta'). The nordic 'Hulder' stems from the same origin, and so does 'Lussi', the evil, female leader of the 'Wild Hunt' (Åsgårdsreia) -the night between Dec 12th and 13th was Lussi-night: the Wild Hunt could catch you if you went outside...

  • Samantha Brown was 100% righr

  • lmfao! I like how when it zoomed in on the house at 2:03 it had a doorknob on the door, but when he was dragging the kid in a basket out at 2:16 it didn't.. xDD

  • One word... Horrifying!

  • Wow I know what's up in your head. Yeah,,, Dude. Santa is bad. and your alil funny @ times

  • I have it on good authority that children taste very good.

  • Send in Brock Sampson! He knows how to deal with Mister Fancypants.

  • Sick and wrong

  • 13 people are obviously bad little children.

  • I am stunned that they thought depicting child abuse, and abduction is OK to show anywhere much less on national television. I just hope none of them are parents!

  • @dnanestrau No one is making you watch it and if your kids do end up watching it then its your responsibility, not the person who made the video.

  • @biglilsef Completely agreed, I love how some of these parents take the first opportunity to cast blame of their parental short comings on others, similar to the 2004 super bowl fraction of a second boob flash. I commented that it was just a breast and some lady was offended and said it was I didn't have kids. If I did have kids they wouldn't be watching the super bowl, a show geared towards adult men. Some people just make me shake my head in utter disappointment.

  • @dnanestrau I am stunned that you thought your comment was worth reading.

  • this is actually pretty stupid.

  • So you get your ass beat if you naughty?

  • Did a Google Image Search for "Krampus." It's the stuff of nightmares!

    I thought Santa was supposed to be accompanied by friendly elves and cute reindeer not demonic, sadistic cannibals!

  • @WoodyLittle Much of what we know is diluted from its original form. For instance the real story of snow white had rape and cannibalism.

  • @wiccaboi83

    Next you're gonna tell me the Easter Bunny is actually frothing, rabid, sewer rat hellbent on poisoning unsuspecting children with colorful, yet tainted, eggs!

    Criminy!

    I don't EVEN want to consider the origins of the Tooth Fairy!

  • @WoodyLittle Lol, nah you're good there. The Easter bunny hails back from Pagan spring traditions. The rabbits and the eggs symbolize fertility and renewal. The tooth fairy origin I actually had to refresh myself on, but the tale is pretty benign focusing on the idea of transitioning from child to adult. It does very though what to do with the tooth, for instance in Belgium the tooth is put into a glass of water and in some places it is buried outside.

  • @wiccaboi83

    Whew...that's a relief, wiccaboi83.

    I was beginning to think that ALL of those fondly remembered mythological figures from my childhood were actually agents of the Devil!

    You sure do know a lot about this stuff. Guess that's not surprising considering your handle!

  • @WoodyLittle

    He's not a cannibal. He's the representation of the Devil in German-speaking culture to essentially scare little children into being good during the year, or they get spanked with make-shift whips.

  • @WoodyLittle How quickly we forget! Santa's been Americanized and sanitized to the point where his entire history has been forgotten. Sinterklaas, one of the earlier "Santas," is from Germanic folklore, and the Germans like to remind children that bad behavior has a price! Hence the invention of Krampus, the guy who does Santa's dirty work for him (and provides a convenient "saint/devil" contrast to Sinterklaas.)

  • The fuck?

  • This is closer to the reality of xmas than anything else I have seen. It a is a tradition rooted in paganism and has NOTHING to do with Jesus Christ. This cartoon has more truth that anything else I've seen in a long time.

  • This is an Old story that has long vanished from Christmas

  • @TEHTYMEKITTEH1

    Krampus is a mythical creature recognized in Alpine countries. According to legend, Krampus accompanies St. Nicholas during the Christmas season, warning and punishing bad children, in contrast to St. Nicholas, who gives gifts to good children. When the Krampus finds a particularly naughty child, it stuffs the child in its sack and carries the frightened thing away to its lair, presumably to devour for its Christmas dinner.

  • It was probably the picture of the Pope that killed it.

  • WHAT DA FUCK

  • This totally happened to a friend of mine when i was a kid.

  • To everyone saying how dumb or messed up this is: Really? Krampus is a real-life myth. It's not like they created him. haha

  • this is what the film rare exports should have been

  • Delightful! I must share this with the children. (evil laugh)

  • This is messed up. Not appropriate for children.

  • At first I thought it was supposed to be funny or cute (did not read the description) but then it got really fucked up... Who in the hell makes this shit?!?!?

  • @MsCaliforniagurl123 A long time ago, before Sanct Nicolaus became Santa Claus, this is what european children were tought. Today, Krampus is as known as Nicolaus, and children in Continental Eurpoe know this story. Santa Claus on the North Pole is an idea from the late 1800's. Krampus goes more than 1000 years back. You should see the Krampus parade in Salzburg on December 5th :)

  • Some idiot said "Brilliant and Beautiful" must of been dropped as a child

  • A lovely Christmas story that reminds us that children are like fresh fruit: They have no taste when they are new – and should be thrown out when they turn rotten. Sadly, the Lord hasn't seen fit to bless my Christian home with children. :( They're at boarding school!

  • kinda reminds me of a robot chicken christmas special. Very well made thats for sure.

  • excellent.

  • This is the best video ever.

  • Dude, you're retarded. The funny kind of retarded!

  • Deeply disturbing. LOL.

  • Knowing full well the lofty caliber of Anthony Bourdain's creative and deeply inspirational writing abilities I made certain to gather all of my grandbabies around the monitor to view this Holiday story. I wanted them to dip their toes into a more expansive pool of festive offerings to encourage global enlightenment in my precious little ones. Afterwards, all but one scurried right back to their chores. This little one, who called my husband Krampa, wept quietly in the corner. She'll recover.

  • @GrandmaNettie

    OMIGOD.. 0_o

  • This is mental and emotional child abuse Reminds of the devil stories in the church ... honestly I think this is not something I would show to a child. Whips? Beating a child? Kidnapping? You call this a charming story?

  • @mmorningstaur - So, how else will the kids know how NOT to behave if they're not warned? It's called a cautionary tale. Be good, kiddies! :D Mwahahahaaa!

  • @mmorningstaur I find that too... In The Netherlands we have the same guys, but they aren´t scary and are always nice.

  • Lol a picture of the pope on the wall.

  • Brilliant and beautiful. Thank you!

  • Wait, why was Santa there in the first place if they were so naughty?

  • Nope, wrong!

    The Krampusz visits on December 6th on Santa Claus (Saint Nicolaus) day, the kids need to shine their shoes, put them in the window and Santa fills it with candy (no big gifts), if you were bad you get coal or onion instead of candy... The ultimate punishment is to bew taken away by the krampusz!

  • bhaaaaaa

  • I especially like the part about the biergarten.
