Christmas witches


While the season is much different to Halloween, the two holidays have much in common! There are a few such as feasts, of course, ghosts, ghost stories, colourful lanterns, monsters and witches. Witches are a very prominent theme of this Yule season of goodwill. Despite well meaningful wishes, cheerfulness, spreading merriment and happiness, the veil is lower than ever before. It's far more open that it was at Halloween. This time round, Halloween creatures and animals like spiders and bats are all keeping indoors hidden away for the cold months. 

Christmas Witches that are very creepy and magical at the same time, always feared and making the season of joy a bit more anxious. Children are worried about them too. Who are these Christmas witches, you might ask, so let's explain:

Perchta

Gryla

Baboushka

La Befana

Lussi

Mrs Claus

Mari Llwyd

The Snow Maiden

These are often thought of so familiar that today they've almost turned nice and some appear to look very beautiful. Oh and yes let's mention the male Christmas witches or magical figures too:

Santa

Ded Moroz

Jack Frost

Krampus

Belsnickel

The Yule Lads

Anyway I hope this explains who these witches and creatures are but don't worry, be on your best behaviour. Some of those on the list are evil and others are kind.
