Скачать или смотреть The Making of Krampus, for the Krampus run in Salzburg Austria

The Krampus runs take place in Alpine towns of southern Austria this week. Krampus is a mythical figure, a kind of opposite to St Nicholas. While jolly St Nick rewards kids for being good, Krampus takes a different tack, trying to scare kids into being good.

In the Krampus runs local people dress up in elaborate Krampus costumes and masks, and run through the town in search of naughty kids. It's an interesting behavioural management strategy!

While in Salzburg we spoke with Stefan Kroidl one of the local Krampus mask makers about the tradition and his work creating intricate, frightening looking wooden masks for the Krampus runners.
