Childrens

A movie tie-in comic based on the myth of the centuries-old devil-like creature named Krampus that punishes naughty children (and adults) during the Christmas season. The 'anti-Santa', a horned demon whose legend originates in central Europe, is rapidly becoming a staple character of the Christmas season, as people seek an alternative from sickly-sweet traditions. Krampus looks set to be one of the biggest horror movie releases of the year, sure to propel the Christmas demon down the chimney and into the mainstream.
