Krampus Alternative Market
The Krampus Alternative Christmas Market comes to the Most Haunted Pub in Scotland this Fest-evil season!
About Krampus Alternative Market
Descend into the Banshee Labyrinth where traders will have all manner of gothic, alternative, and horrifying treats on offer. Whilst there why not meet Krampus himself, tell him you’ve been a good little one this year and maybe he won’t eat you, and you can escape with a photo of yourself with the creature. Featuring different traders each day, selling everything from jewellery to Escape Room Envelopes to handmade crafts, providing a perfect alternative to traditional Christmas offerings.
