Little known cousin (from the country) of Krampus.

Similar to his better know cousin, Krankle preys upon children during the holidays. However, while Krampus seeks the naughty; Krankle only seeks the weak and infirm. Having been born with hollow bones himself, he only attacks those that pose the least amount of risk to his own safety. He steals the marrow from his young victims to sustain himself for his months-long hibernation.

To ward off Krankle, susceptible children should light a candle in their window each night. Also, it's highly recommended they keep salt under their pillow. It is well known that Krankle fears the light and the bitter coarseness of salt.

There is ongoing debate over his exact motivations. Most believe he was driven to madness by a childhood filled with frailty and ridicule. However, others note he could be seeking vengeance for his stillborn twin, Krankus. The one that should have lived (as his parents would always say). Still others believe Krankus was merely his first victim.
