The artist Iren Horrors depicts various Christmas monsters from Europe: the Krampus (a demon from Central and Eastern Europe), the Yule Cat (a giant cat from Iceland), the Gryla (a hag from Iceland), the Befana (a hag from Italy), and Frau Perchta (a shapeshifter from the German Alps). #FairyTaleTuesday #Mythology #Folklore #Yule #Christmas #Holiday #Monster #IrenHorrors
