Trivia

Director Michael Dougherty says that, in his film, Krampus is Santa Claus's shadow.

The Krampus's final design was distilled from various postcards and illustrations of the creature over the years.

In Austria, the Krampus is a goat-like creature that accompanies St. Nicholas (whom the Dutch call Sinterklaas, the name that Santa Claus is based upon) to terrorize naughty children.
