He is the Bavarian Krampus.
A year ago I discovered Krampus, a ridiculously garish demonic man-beast who plays the part of Santa Claus' arch-nemesis 'round Christmas-time (and NOT Martin Short, thank you very much).
Although technically his enemy, he's more of a friend really. Krampus, KLAUBAUF, and the other nightmare creatures that make up "Santa's Companions", usually just hang out with the jolly old elf, following him around as he walks about town and threatening children with sticks, whips, and sacks.
