About this Playlist
Ah, Christmas time! The season of joy, laughter, and spending time with loved ones. The sights and sounds of the holiday season are truly magical. From the twinkling lights to the smell of freshly baked cookies, there’s nothing quite like it. And let’s not forget about the presents! There’s something special about giving and receiving gifts that brings people together.
While many of us associate Christmas with Santa Claus and his reindeer, there’s a darker side to the holiday that is often overlooked. Christmas legends and myths are filled with tales of giants, witches, and creatures like the Yule Cat and Krampus. These characters are often depicted as menacing and cruel, and they have no problem punishing those who misbehave. For example, some legends say that Krampus would beat naughty children with sticks or even kidnap them and take them to his lair. Many more stories you will hear in this playlist that celebrates Christmas Monsters….just remember they are always watching…
