Up on our tree: The Yule cat, also known as Jólakötturinn in Icelandic, is a giant, vicious cat from Icelandic Christmas folklore that eats people who don't receive new clothes before Christmas Eve. Have you received new clothing?

We have this little guy up on our tree. Þvörusleikir (Spoon-Licker) is the Yule Lad who arrives on 15th Dec. Spoon-Licker was known for being tall, thin, and for stealing long wooden spoons to lick them, hoping to taste something sweet.
