They have Krampus in Poland? I thought that was solely an Alpine German/Austrian thing

Krampus is Santa’s chained up slave demon. That way Santa can be associated only with loving acts. Also I think Krampus is just supposed to beat bad kids with birch sticks, not kill them.

I think that's Belsnickel you're thinking of. He beats children that are impish.
