Very unpleasant Christmas trivia:
In Eastern Europe, one of the stories told to children is about Frau Perchta, or the Christmas Witch. She has two faces, a nice face that she shows to nice children, and a scary face she shows to bad ones. She comes into homes on the 12th night of Christmas and leaves a piece of silver in the shoes of nice children.
But for bad children, she slits open their bellies, takes out their organs and replaces them with pebbles and straw.
Sleep well children.
