#schnabelperchten

[witch-breaker]

These unnerving boogeymen are said to patrol villages on the 5th of January in order to check that homeowners have been cleaning their houses. They will cut open the stomachs of people who have failed and stuff their bodies with the objects cluttering the home.

"Woe to those who have not cleaned their houses - it is said that the Schnabelperchten will cut open their stomachs with long scissors and empty the rubbish into them" ✂️

This is a Schnabelperchten, an entity local to the Rauris Valley in Austria. They’re similar to Perchten, serving as motivators for good behavior. In the Schnabelperchten’s case, they come to check you’ve kept your home tidy. If it’s not, they have huge shears to enact their punishment and cut open your stomach to ‘clean’ you out! ✂️🧹💨
