Get ready for the season with the 13 Unmerriest Monsters - and meet Baltimore Krampus in person!
How much do you really know about the Yuletide? Have you taken precautions against the Yule Cat? Meow! Get to know Mari Lwyd, a skeleton horse who challenges people in a battle of rhymes. How about the French whipping father, le Pere Fouttard? Locally, we must be on the lookout for the Belsnickel. Maybe you think your decor is up to snuff for inspection by The Yule Goat? Ready for Caga Tio, the festive holiday “log?”
This year's event will support Toys for Tots so please plan to bring an unwrapped toy for collection by Krampus. Those without toys... well, Krampus may introduce you to the true spirit of the season.
Join us for this darker look at holiday legends and lore presented by Rissa Miller, and discover the shady backend of the most wonderful time of the year ~ or as we like to think of it, a Creepy Little Christmas.
Our holiday cryptids are presented at the Museum of Howard County History, 8328 Court Avenue, Ellicott City, MD 21043.
This program consistently sells out, thus reservations are required and no walk-ups will be allowed. Young guests are welcome, however, please note, the legend of Santa Claus will be explained away. Festive holiday attire and Santa hats are welcome. Sleighs can be parked outside.
There will be no second presentation this winter, so secure your spot early. Please note, there are no paper tickets and nothing will be mailed to you
Program will be limited to 60 people in an indoor space. Tickets will be refunded or swapped to another program for any concerns arising due to health issues.
Event may be cancelled due to inclement weather or flood watches or warnings: refunds or rescheduling options available.
If you cannot attend, please let us know within 48 hours of the event for a full refund, or to exchange for another date. Please DO NOT attempt to resell your ticket. We keep waiting lists for events and tickets are offered to those waiting before the general public. For questions, contact us at [email protected]
