“ Krampus is royalty. Old-school villainy. On the D&D alignment chart, he's squarely lawful evil, and I think many of us could listen to him monologue for ages, much more than the runtime of Cross' delicious pages. It really makes a difference when you love your work, doesn't it? And that makes it all the worse when the economy makes that job harder, or obsolete. A fun musing from the master of Christmas punishment, who most definitely has a heart bigger than the Grinch, post growing three sizes. Delightful and excellent stuff. ”

“ A super pourquoi story (of sorts) to add to the end of the year holiday season. I won't say more and ruin it... but you'll find Krampus a most sympathetic Santa's helper! ”

“ What a fabulous monologue! Krampus has a job he loves, a job he is great at - but no one needs or wants him to do his job anymore. A funny, surprisingly sweet monologue about the good old days. I love how Krampus is portrayed and the joy he takes in talking about the work he was born to do. I also love that he's not quite the monster we've all been told he is. This would be a breath of fresh air in an evening of holiday - or any - shorts. ”

“ Add a little bit of evil and mischief to your Christmas showcase with this diabolical monologue. The entire setting and costuming would be a surprising sight after your typical characters on stage. ”
