Snow the color of dirt falls onto the floor You take your boots off, shutting the front door behind you Click
You see the clock on the wall, it reads 12:00 AM Maybe you worked a bit too much over-time

The living room has a chilly feel
Though there's a blazing fire in the fireplace Crack Pop
Your bedroom is dark and dim The bedsheets have a metallic smell Swish
Eyes drift slightly closed A loud bang echoes throughout the house Bang
Fight, flight, faun, or freeze You freeze Step
Step
There’s a shadow at the end of the hall
Is it Santa? Crack
Santa doesn’t have horns
He doesn’t break into people’s homes Click
Clack
The figure steps towards you
It’s Krampus
So lock your doors
Seal your windows
Be good this year
And Krampus won’t get you
Krampus 3:50 PM
