Holy f'ck y'all this is a fun one! Happy holidays!First we've got some wild December rituals for you. We kick things off with Krampusnacht- a tradition where drunk men dress as Krampus aka "the Christmas devil", and chase children through the streets, whipping them with branches and sticks. Then we move onto the Peruvian Christmas fight club, Takanakuy... need we say more? And then the gals wrap things up with a Japanese festival called Kanamara Matsuri, which revolves around worshipping giant steel phalluses!-Crave more stories of feisty festivals?
