Creepy Little Christmas with Guest, Baltimore Krampus
Get ready for the season with the 13 Unmerriest Monsters
Description
How much do you really know about the Yuletide? Have you taken precautions against the Yule Cat? Meow! Get to know Mari Lwyd, a skeleton horse who challenges people in a battle of rhymes. How about the French whipping father, le Pere Fouttard? Locally, we must be on the lookout for the Belsnickel. Maybe you think your decor is up to snuff for inspection by The Yule Goat? Ready for Caga Tio, the festive holiday “log?”
This year's event will support Toys for Tots so, if you can, please plan to bring an unwrapped toy for collection by Krampus.
Join us for this darker look at holiday legends and lore presented by Rissa Miller, and discover the shady backend of the most wonderful time of the year ~ or as we like to think of it, a Creepy Little Christmas.
Young guests are welcome, however, please note, the legend of Santa Claus will be explained away. Festive holiday attire and Santa hats are welcome. Sleighs can be parked outside.
