Christmas monster seven, my take on the tragic figure of Frosty the Snowman. A living soul trapped in a magic hat and forced to live and then melt to death again and again whenever someone places the hat on the head of a snowman. Truly horrifying #frosty #frostythesnowman #snowgolem #magichat #christmasmonster #christmashorror #spookychristmas #creaturedesign #monsterdesign #horrorart #monsterart https://www.instagram.com/apb_art/p/CXyu0hplGGm/?utm_medium=tumblr

Christmas monster number eight. Beloved holiday mascot K’rzcreengal, the thing with a million gifts, the one who watches, the list maker …. #christmasmonster #christmashorror #krzcreengal #krzcreengaliswatching #creaturedesign #horrorart #christmascreatures #thegiftbringer #chriscringal #kriskringle #betterwatchout #betternotshout https://www.instagram.com/p/CX2IJKfsCOD/?utm_medium=tumblr

Christmas Monster five, my take on Frau Percheta. That weird evil witch with the iron face and swan feet, wandering around slicing people open and stuffing them with stare and garbage for some reason. #dailyweirdo #dailymonster #christmasmonster #creaturedesign #horrorart #christmashorror #spookychristmas #weirdchristmas #christmascreeps #creepychristmas #christmasfolklore https://www.instagram.com/p/CXlwVUSlkaa/?utm_medium=tumblr

Christmas Monster 4, my take on Zwart Piet aka Black Peter. I know he’s more commonly depicted as a racist stereotype character but I read that his origin story was that he was a devil that Saint Nikolas captured, chained and tamed and used him to punish naughty kids, and I liked the idea of Santa Claus having a pet devil on a chain. So Merry Christmas I guess. #christmasmonster #christmashorror #spookychristmas #dailyweirdo #dailymonster #creaturedesign #christmascreature https://www.instagram.com/p/CXgto-Hl_9w/?utm_medium=tumblr

Christmas monster three, my take on The Yule Cat. It supposedly sneaks around and eats people who either aren’t wearing new clothes on Christmas Eve or people who don’t get socks for Christmas. I’ve heard it both ways… #dailyweirdo #christmasmonster #horrorart #christmashorror #creaturedesign #yulecat #catdrawings #monsterdesign #spookychristmas https://www.instagram.com/p/CXeJ68OFZky/?utm_medium=tumblr

Have you heard about the Mari Lwyd? 💀 A Christmas folk tradition in Wales where groups of people accompany the Mari Lwyd to different houses and request entry by song. The household then deny them in song. This back and forth continues until the house runs out of excuses and would have to invite them in for food and beer 💀 So it’s kinda like trick or treating but with horse skulls, alcohol, and singing! What’s not to love? 💀 . . . . . . #caitlinmccarthyart #marilwyd #christmasmonster #creepmas #creepychristmas #hexmas #gothic #occult #occultart #gothicart #folklore #darkart #darkartist #gothicartist #witchart #witchartist #paganart #pagansofinstagram #oddities https://www.instagram.com/p/CXmwKiGJKpA/?utm_medium=tumblr
