On Episode 111 of Guide to the Unknown:
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, everyone, and GRUSS VOM KRAMPUS!
We’re huddled in fear, hoping Krampus won’t take us away to hell…it turns out we haven’t been very good this year. But to understand our enemy, we’re researching his humble Austrian beginnings, all the way up to his modern domination of scary Christmas movies! There are…a lot of them.
Pour yourself some hot chocolate, and hide your birch rods!
