Fecha de emisión: Dic 16, 2019

As the nights grow long and dark and the holidays creep ever closer in the calendar, let's take a look at some of the festive myths from around the world. This year we travel to Iceland, where the winter months offer only a few scant hours of sunlight. And in the dark, holiday monsters creep. Here… there is only the child-eating giantess ogre Gryla, her enormous cat, and her thirteen mischievous sons, the Yule Lads. Each has a very particular mischief up their sleeve from slamming doors to eating candles.
