Notes & Requirements
The holiday season is filled with traditions that usually make a person feel joy and excitement. Images of Santa and other jolly characters may come to mind during the season. However, around the world, the holidays have different characters and traditions that may turn that joy to fear. Where we may have Santa, other places have the dreaded Krampus, Yule Cat, and other unusual practices. In this hour program, you'll learn about holiday creatures from around the world.
