That Would Be Rad

S4 E36: Terrifying Christmas Creatures - Volume Two


Listen Later

Think the holiday season is all cheer and twinkling lights? Think again.

This week, Woody and Tyler pull back the curtain on even darker legends and terrifying creatures that have haunted Christmas traditions for centuries. From the windswept shores of Scotland to the snow-covered peaks of Iceland, we’re diving headfirst into holiday horrors you’ve never heard before.

Knucklavee – the skinless, horse-like nightmare of the Orkney Islands that terrorizes with its grotesque form.
Habergeiß – Bavaria’s vampiric goat-woman that’s as bloodthirsty as she is chilling.
Mari Lwyd – a ghostly, horse-skulled figure from Wales that challenges you to a rhyming duel…at your front door.
Hans Trapp – the scarecrow-like German legend who stalks the wicked with sinister intent.

And that’s just the beginning. Woody and Tyler also unearth the dark origins of The Nutcracker—a tale far more nightmarish than the ballet suggests.

Plus, you’ll meet Grýla, Iceland’s infamous ogress who feasts on naughty children, and the mischievous Kallikantzaroi from the Balkans, who emerge each year to wreak havoc, and MANY MORE.

So light a candle, grab a blanket, and press play… if you dare.

This is Part 2 of our spine-tingling holiday series, and trust us: the monsters are only getting bigger.
