Merry Jul from nasty ole Père Fouettard! In French, Père Fouettard literally means “Father Whipper.” His gruesome origin story involves him drugging and slitting the throats of three wealthy children who stayed at his inn. He later dismembered and stewed them in large barrels until Saint Nicholas came around, discovered his deeds and resurrected the kids, compelling Fouettard to repent and become his “helper.” 🎄🎅🏻❄️ #HappyHolidays #MerryJul #MerryChristmas #Horror #InstaHorror #PèreFouettard #SaintNicholas #ChristmasMonsters #HolidayHorror #HorrorFan #Xmas #Creepy #Folklore

Another Jul shoutout to Hans Trapp— an "anti-Santa" who hands out punishment to bad children in the Alsace and Lorraine regions of France. He visits children before Christmas, dressed as a scarecrow. And he's scary as shit. 🎄🎅🏻 #Jul #MerryChristmas #Horror #InstaHorror #ChristmasHorror #HappyHolidays #Creepy #HansTrapp #AntiSanta #Weird #HorrorFan #HolidayHorror #Disturbing #Yuletide

A Merry Yuletide season from Percht, Alpine pagan goddess! Percht enters houses throughout the 12 Days of Christmas. She knows whether the children & young servants of the household have behaved well & worked hard all year. If they have, they might find a small silver coin the next day, in a shoe or pail. If they haven't, she slits their bellies open, removes their stomach & guts, & stuffs the hole with straw & pebbles. She also slits people's bellies open & stuffs them with straw if they eat something on the night of her feast day, other than the traditional meal of fish & gruel. 🎄🎄🎄 #MerryChristmas #Horror #Percht #Yule #ChristmasHorror #HorrorFan #InstaHorror #HappyHolidays #HolidayHorror #Creepy #Paganism #12DaysOfChristmas #XmasHorror #Horror
