In Germany, Belsnickel—a ragged figure dressed in furs—visits children before Christmas. Carrying a sack of treats for the good and a switch for the naughty, Belsnickel represents a harsher, more judgmental side of holiday folklore. #FolkyFriday

German immigrants brought their traditions to the Americas, including Belsnickel. While normally a companion of St. Nick, some regions Belsnickel (sometimes called Kriskinkle or the Xmas Woman) replaced Santa entirely. A hideous fella, they were still generous. #FolkyFriday

I found the Belsnickel listed in an AI generated blurb about cryptids. Controversial! To say the least. But still fun. Learn about Krampus’ less aggressive cousin.

As the mummers knock on the door, they ask "Any mummers 'lowed in?"
If the mummers are welcomed into the home, they will do informal performances.
These can include music, jokes, dances and more. The hosts in the home then must determine the identity of the mummers.

Mummering is so interesting.
If anyone wants to join us in Philly on New Year's Day, the Mummers Parade goes on basically all day long and is such a fun time. Come hang with us! (We live close to the main parade route AND the wild and crazy Two Street festivities hahaha)

It is one of the most unique Christmas traditions in Canada, and while it started in Newfoundland and Labrador, it has found its way to other parts of Canada.
It is mummering, and its origin dates back centuries.
Let's learn more :)
