Boone County has made Krampus a celebrated character that has attracted many tourists and revived the town's place on the map. Jesse Walker, in his memory, started a very popular movement known as the "Krampus Festival" in celebration of the Winter Solstice and old Yule Traditions. Bittersweet Ending: Krampus dies at the hands of angels, they and Santa not allowing him to regain what he had lost, but Krampus' new mark on the world has not faded just yet.Badass Santa: For all of the same reasons stated above.
Bad Santa: Baldr - now going by Santa Claus - locked the Krampus away in a mountain in North America for centuries after parading him around in chains (demonizing him and tarnishing his name after the Krampus gave him nothing but shelter and kindness), stealing his castle, killing many magical animals to use their magic for himself, dying Loki's bag red in innocent blood in order to use it himself and who know how many other atrocities in his immortal lifetime.However, angels and the monotheistic God also exist. All Myths Are True: The Krampus and Santa Claus are deities from Norse Mythology (apparently).Tropes exclusive to this book or at least especially prominent: If Jesse can survive this ancient feud, he might have the chance to redeem himself to his family, to save his own broken dreams.and help bring the magic of Yule to the impoverished folk of Boone County. Now Santa's time is running short, for the Yule Lord is determined to have his retribution and reclaim Yuletide. But the lines between good and evil become blurred as Jesse's new master reveals many dark secrets about the cherry-cheeked Santa Claus, and how half a millennium ago, the jolly old saint imprisoned Krampus and usurped his magic.
Moments later, a large sack plummets earthward, a magical sack that will thrust the down-on-his luck singer into the clutches of the terrifying Yule Lord, Krampus. When the reindeer leap skyward taking the sleigh, devil men, and Santa into the clouds, screams follow. One Christmas Eve in a small hollow in Boone County, West Virginia, struggling songwriter Jesse Walker witnesses a strange spectacle: seven devilish figures chasing a man in a red suit toward a sleigh and eight reindeer. Krampus: The Yule Lord is a book written and illustrated by Dark Fantasy writer and artist Brom.
