The Dead of Winter: Beware the Krampus and Other Wicked Christmas Creatures by Sarah Clegg

dark informative fast-paced

2.0

Short book covering the darker side of Christmas traditions.  Most are monsters that seek to punish children who are bad.  Alot of the stories involve murder and beatings.  I knew Krampus but the others I was not familiar with.  Interesting topic but I felt like it was a bit disjointed to read.  Within the chapters, at times, it seemed to go off into topics that were loosely related.
