It’s Christmas Eve, Boys and Girls. Be Good or the Krampus Will Whip You.

Twitterer @RonSalas retweeted an old Christmas card @CalamityJon created a few years ago.

The Krampus is an old myth that the Venture Brothers introduced us to a few years ago. Take a walk through YouTube and you’ll find tons of contemporary parade and Traditional Krampus videos all up in there.

Now imagine our surprise when we learned obscure mythologist writer most extraordinary, Neil Gaiman, did not know of the Krampus.

We’re still reeling from this revelation. Reality as we know it may never recover.

Voltaire Shares His Creepy Christmas with You

Posted by mistergroonk in Holiday, Movies on December 19, 2008

Over on his MySpace(people still use that?), Voltaire shares his Creepy Christmas film(Dec. 18th) behind the scenes goings on. These antics include studio pics with one My Chemical Romance guy, Gerard Way, who narrates “X-Mess Detritus” and who also wrote the insanely awesome UMBRELLA ACADEMY that you should go out and buy after you finish reading this post and watching said movie.

Voltaire’s film, “X-mess Detritus” is a cautionary parable about the dangers of holiday gift-giving and the effect the resulting garbage has on the Earth. Voltaire wrote a poem to tell this tale and enlisted My Chemical Romance front man, Gerard Way (who also wrote the insanely awesome Umbrella Academy which you should go out and buy after you finish reading this post) to narrate his creepy Christmas short.

CreepyChristmas.net doesn’t provide an easily sharable video embed. But if you click the image below, it’ll take you straight to viewing Voltaire’s Creepy Christmas entry.

I do too much for you kids. I really do.
