Watch Out For the Krampus

You had best be on your toes the merry grandma said. The Krampus will get you if you don’t watch out! We were almost too terrified to go to our bed. Hearing the Krampus outside giving an imaginary shout. The Krampus is coming, our uncle Ned said, happy to scare. There was some weird kind of terror floating around in the air. I don’t believe in the Krampus my big brother said. I was too afraid to disbelieve for the Krampus might strike me dead.

(laughing) Funny how many times the adults in our lives tried to frighten us with weird, crazy, scary stories. Then, when we were too excited to function, they would laugh and laugh.

The older adults got the most kick out of it!
