Notice: These Are Fictional Short Stories Arkay My rating is colored by the fact that I didn't notice in the summary that these were works of fiction with Krampus as the main character. I was looking for actual folklore tales. Short stories are not my favorite type of reading since there isn't a lot of detail.

From Bitten By Books: "Krampusnacht: Twelve Nights of Krampus contains twelve short stories that range from funny to pure terror. This is a must-read for the upcoming holiday season."
