Krampus and the Monsters of Christmas
By Mike Huberty November 15, 2023
While most of us associate Christmas with joy, merriment, and the jolly figure of Santa Claus delivering gifts to well-behaved children, there’s a much more macabre aspect to the festive season in many cultures around the world. Hidden in the shadows of the holiday cheer are an array of fearsome and eerie figures known as the Christmas monsters. These terrifying creatures serve as deterrents for bad behavior among children. They are the anti-thesis of Santa, punishing those who misbehave rather than rewarding good conduct. Among these, perhaps the most famous is Krampus. Originating from Central European folklore, Krampus is depicted as a horned beast who, instead of giving gifts, doles out punishment to naughty children. This menacing figure has been the stuff of nightmares for generations of children. You can read more about him right here...

Upton Sinclair and Workers' Rights Upton Sinclair was a prominent American writer and social activist from the early 20th century. He is best known for his book, *The Jungle*, which exposed the terrible working conditions and unsanitary practices of the meatpacking industry. On our Devil In the White City haunted history bus tour , we visit the Union Stockyards gate to discuss the history of Chicago. Once the center of Chicago’s meatpacking district, Sinclair worked incognito in the meatpacking plants for almost two months to gather intel for his novel. Once the novel was released, it caused a public outcry and led to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act, which established federal inspection of meat products and improved food safety.
