On Sunday, November 24, a large-scale Krampus show featuring terrifying mythical creatures with fur, horns, and hooves will take place at one of Prague's exhibition centers. According to the Vinegret website, these "Christmas demons" are presented as a counter to St. Nicholas.
The character of Krampus originates from Alpine folklore and is said to accompany St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, punishing naughty children and scaring them. In this way, he acts in contrast to the saint, who gives gifts to good children.
Organizers describe the event as a "family activity" and invite parents with children aged 3 and older. However, they request that all pets be left at home.
"The event will feature pyrotechnics, fire, loud music, and noise. Therefore, parents should consider whether their child will be comfortable in this environment," the organizers warn.
As previously reported by the UOJ, a large-scale satanic show titled "The Gates of Darkness" was recently held in the streets of Toulouse, France.
