ShadowPlay#SanAntonioTexas 's first-ever #Krampus Parade: A festive, fearsome tradition comes to Southtown in December
The event promises to be an unforgettable evening of #folklore, #costumes and #festivity blending #EuropeanLegend with a modern Texan twist.
"Inspired by growing global interest in Krampus, spurred partly from the 2015 Adam Scott movie that sent moviegoers researching the real-life myth, Hurt-Stanford envisioned a #Krampuslauf (or 'Krampus walk') for San Antonio and appointed Crittenden its grand marshal. He accepted, and an organizing committee that dubbed itself the Valkyries von Krampus and includes former Fiesta commissioners, was created soon after.
"'The reason to bring this Krampus Parade to San Antonio is because people are prepared for it and were just waiting to be invited!' Crittenden said."
