If that's the case, you might be called on by one of these Christmas Cryptids from folklore. While good boys and girls get a visit from the Jolly Old Elf himself, naughty children get a visit from Gryla, the ogress with an appetite for naughty children. If cute and cuddly is your thing, you might want to turn back now. According to Icelandic tradition, children who did their chores would receive new clothes for Christmas. On Christmas night, the enormous Yule Cat would visit and peer in windows to see who was wearing their new Christmas clothes. If you had none, you became dinner.

Christmas might seem all cozy and cheerful, but some eerie legends make the holiday downright spooky! In Iceland, there's the Yule Cat, a giant feline that eats anyone who doesn't get new clothes for Christmas—so better hope for socks this year. Then there's Krampus, a creepy half-goat, half-demon figure from Central Europe who punishes naughty kids by stuffing them into his sack. In Scandinavia, the Nisse is a mischievous gnome-like creature that protects farms but can turn nasty if you forget to leave him a bowl of porridge. Wales has Mari Lwyd, a ghostly horse figure with a real horse skull, who goes door to door challenging people to rhyme battles (yes, it's as weird as it sounds). So, while Christmas can be magical, these legends add a creepy twist to the holiday cheer!

Send us your movie recommendations!Welcome to our holiday episode and the season finale! The film discussion begins around 30:20.Can you imagine being stalked by a gigantic cat just because you didn't get new clothes for Christmas? Join us as we unravel the mysterious legend of Iceland's Yule Cat, a creature used to incentivize productivity among Icelandic farm workers in the 1800s. With a sprinkle of humor and curiosity, we explore how this peculiar tradition has evolved into a modern-day celebration in Reykjavik, where a 16-foot sculpture of the Yule Cat stands watch. Our exploration even includes a whimsical gift exchange that prompts a chuckle at the quirks of holiday gift-giving.Switching gears, we brainstorm a wildly imaginative TV show concept that blends science fiction with sitcom vibes. Picture Little Tony and Fred navigating through time portals and exotic alien planets—all set against the backdrop of Brooklyn. We chuckle over potential casting dilemmas and rights issues, envisioning a world of conventions and fan interactions. As if that wasn't intriguing enough, we touch upon the unsettling character from the film "Creep," played by Mark Duplass, offering a unique twist to our creative brainstorm.Our adventure in indie horror films takes a suspenseful turn with a storyline featuring a devil trapped in a basement. We critique the atmospheric tension and pacing, offering candid reactions to the film's execution and exploring the allure of atmospheric storytelling. We reflect on how the film's intriguing premise could have benefited from a lengthier runtime and more dialogue. Our discussion culminates in a playful rating game, revealing our mixed feelings about this mysterious film while hinting at exciting plans for the next season.

Jeff Belanger returns to celebrate the scariest, most violent and dangerous holiday – Christmas! His new book, “The Fright Before Christmas: Surviving Krampus and Other Yuletide Monsters, Witches, and Ghosts,” details the real reasons we put up trees, hang stockings, string up lights, and exchange gifts this time of year, and it actually has nothing to do with Santa Claus or even religion. He discusses how monsters, goblins, ogres and witches from other cultures around the world morphed into the merry festivities of the season today. And he shares the stories and legends behind Krampus, the elf-like TomTen, Karakoncolas, the Gryla, and the Yule Cat!

Happy Spooky Wednesday and Happy Holidays, y'all! We've got an episode to tell you all about the reason for the season... giant cats and magical men. First up, Kala talks about Jólakötturinn, or Yule Cat. This creepy kitty wanders towns in Iceland on Christmas Eve to find out which children have been doing their chores and which have not. You better hope you have a new pair of socks in those Christmas presents, or the Yule Cat may eat your dinner and then eat you! We promise it makes more sense once you hear the whole story. And Brittany talks all about Santa Claus. How did this jolly fellow get his rep? Has he always been the Coca-Cola version we know today? No... his origin story is interesting, and something you'll definitely want to hear for yourself. We finish up the episode with some great ways to keep track of Santa this year for you and your kiddos (if you have them.)

7 Wonderful Ways to Experience Christmas in Reykjavik, Iceland

The Christmas season is in full swing in Iceland. Many of my podcast listeners and followers on social media have asked about some awesome ways to experience Christmas in Iceland. Back in 2019, I shared 16 Christmas Activities to Do While Visiting Iceland on the podcast. While that list is still helpful, I wanted to update it a bit and provide some more links to activities that you might find helpful.Iceland during Christmas is a wonderland of unique traditions and festive activities, particularly in the Reykjavík area. Here are six reasons why these activities make for an unforgettable holiday experience: 1. Icelandic Christmas Buffet The Christmas season in Iceland is rich with culinary traditions, and the local buffet is a must-try. It's not just about the food, which includes delicacies like hangikjöt (smoked lamb) and laufabrauð (leaf bread), but also about the experience of sharing these traditional dishes in a festive atmosphere.It's a perfect way to immerse yourself in Icelandic culture. One of my favorite things is that there are regular Christmas buffets and all vegan ones. I had the pleasure of going to an all vegan one at Plantan Kaffihús, a vegan cafe in the city, and it was phenomenal.I have also been to ones that are mixed, like at Hotel Borg. If you plan to experience an Icelandic Christmas buffet, make sure to show up hungry and open to trying types of cuisine that you might not ordinarily come across. 2. A Reykjavik Christmas Walking Tour This guided tour by Your Friend in Reykjavik is a fantastic way to explore the city's Christmas spirit. It offers a blend of history, culture, folklore, and holiday cheer, providing insights into how Icelanders celebrate Christmas. The walk around Reykjavík's beautifully decorated streets, filled with stories and local lore, is an intimate way to experience the city's festive heart.If you use my code ALLTHINGSICELAND (in all caps) you can save 10% on your Christmas Walk with Your Friend in Reykjavík. 3. Hunt for the Icelandic Yule Lads in Reykjavík The Yule Lads are a unique and quirky part of Icelandic Christmas folklore. Searching for their projections on downtown buildings turns the city into a playful and magical scavenger hunt. It's a fun, family-friendly activity.On Reykjavik city's website, they announced fun prizes that they are giving away for those who participate in the scavenger hunt. I have a link to that in the description of this episode on my website.In December of 2021, I shared the Yule Lads poem on my podcast in Icelandic and English for each of the 13 days that they each come to town. I started on that day to introduce their troll mother Grýla and other members of their family, like the Yule Cat. 4. Ice Skating at Ingólfstorg Square Located in the heart of Reykjavík, ice skating here is not just an activity; it's an experience. Surrounded by the city's festive lights and lively atmosphere, it's a picturesque way to enjoy the Icelandic winter.Usually, there are Icelandic santas, or Yule Lads, hanging out on the ice and playing with the kids. One warning that I think is worth mentioning is that the ice-skating rink here is not smooth.It is a bit bumpy for a rink, so please be aware that can be harder to smoothly skate and easy to potentially fall. I am not sure why they are not able to make it smooth, especially since the ice-skating rink in Hafnarfjörður's Christmas market is very smooth. I love to ice skate, so I had a blast doing it but I had to catch myself from falling a few times. Just a heads up for those that want to try it. 5. Visiting Icelandic Christmas Markets: The Icelandic Christmas Markets in the Reykjavík area include  Ingólfstorg, Heiðmörk, Hjartatorg, and the Hafnarfjörður Christmas Village. They offer a cozy, cheerful atmosphere where you can find everything from uniq...

Seasons Greetings, or rather Season's Screamings because today we're talking about the ghouls, monsters, and creepy creatures of Christmas covered in the new book The Fright Before Christmas: Surviving Krampus an other Yuletide Monsters, by Jeff Belanger. According to the book synopsis: "Christmas time is truly the darkest and creepiest time of the year filled with devilish creatures lurking in the shadows waiting to get us. Best known is the Krampus who has been the subject of films and songs. There was a time in the late 1800s when people sent Krampus cards, not holiday greetings. There are other violent and dangerous monsters from all over northern climes who have been hunting naughty children for centuries. From shapeshifters to mountain trolls, to elves, to heavy-handed cohorts of Saint Nicholas, the Christmas holiday has been filled with ghosts and monsters ready to dole out punishment to those who need it. The Fright Before Christmas will delve into the folklore of Krampus and his friends with the elf-like tomten and the goblinesque Karakoncolas. The Belsnickel is ready to hit us with his switch of sticks and Gryla may drag you back to her mountain lair. And watch out for the Yule Cat ready to pounce!" Jeff Belanger is one of the most visible and prolific researchers of folklore and legends today. A natural storyteller, he's the award-winning, Emmy-nominated host, writer, and producer of the New England Legends series on PBS and Amazon Prime, and is the author of over a dozen books (published in six languages). He also hosts the award-winning New England Legends weekly podcast, which has garnered over 4.5 million downloads since its launch, and ranks in the top 1/2 percent of all podcasts as far as popularity according to Listen Notes. His books include the best sellers: The World's Most Haunted Places, Weird Massachusetts, Our Haunted Lives, The Call of Kilimanjaro, and Who's Haunting the White House?

The Winter Solstice is coming! Let's talk about the longest night, AKA the shortest day, and how the modern celebration of Yule relates to its more ancient origins. We're also discussing some pagan mythology, including the Oak and Holly Kings, and then diving into the scarier folktales associated with this season, like Krampus, the Yule Cat and Gryla and her Yule Lads! But first, I have some things to say about the New Moon in Sagittarius and how its energy, paired with that of the Winter Solstice and the end of the year, makes us all think a little more passionately about what we want our next year to look like - and how that's pushed me to plant my own new seed.      Thank you so much for listening!
