San Antonio Krampus Parade counters satanic panic with 'Puro Pinche Krampus Portal' merch
Last Friday, fundamentalist Christian pastors held a press conference asking city officials to shut down San Antonio's first Krampus Parade, claiming the event could "open up a demonic portal." That same day, the Archdiocese of San Antonio released a statement expressing concerns about the event, scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 5, to celebrate a German folkloric tradition that predates Christianity. Through the ensuing satanic panic maelstrom, the Krampus Parade's organizers have remained quiet.
