In folklore the Krampus (half devil, half goat) would roam the streets on the eve of the 5th December looking for naughty children to punish. Sometimes he would carry a pile of birch twigs to beat them too. He might travel on is own, or with St Nicholas who had his own Feast and festival on the 6th December where good children were celebrated.
