Krampus Placemat

Bring a wicked twist to your holiday table with this striking Krampus placemat, designed for those who prefer their festivities with a sinister edge. One side features a repeating pattern of terrifying vintage-style Krampus heads, their lolling tongues and devilish horns set against a deep crimson red background that evokes both traditional Christmas color and blood-chilling horror. The reverse side is an elegant, ominous black, boldly printed with the phrase “Gruß vom Krampus” in matching crimson red—a sinister holiday greeting straight from the shadowy legends of Krampusnacht. Whether you’re hosting a spooky holiday dinner or simply adding some gothic flair to your seasonal table settings, this double-sided placemat delivers both form and fright. Perfect for fans of ugly Christmas traditions and lovers of folklore with a dark twist, this Krampus placemat transforms any holiday meal into a celebration of the strange and mysterious. It's not just a piece of functional décor—it's a conversation starter, a mood-setter, and a declaration of your love for the wilder side of winter. Inspired by the Alpine legends of Krampuslauf, where the horned beast runs through the streets punishing the naughty, this placemat makes a bold statement at any Christmas gathering, from eerie dinner parties to quirky seasonal brunches. If you’re hosting a horror-themed Christmas event, planning a creepy holiday party, or just love filling your home with unique holiday decor, this placemat is an excellent addition to your collection of Christmas decoration staples. It brings a dark folkloric charm to your dining table, pairing well with black dinnerware, candles, pinecones, or even blood-red napkins. Incorporate it into your larger holiday decorating scheme or use it as a stand-alone centerpiece for a Krampus-inspired tablescape—it works beautifully either way. This Krampus placemat is also a fantastic gift for the right person—someone who sees the holidays as an opportunity to embrace the naughty, not just the nice.
