10 Terrifying Horror Movie Monsters (You Never See Kill)

6. Krampus - Krampus

Krampus, the hulking anti-Santa Claus from the movie of the same name, takes no prisoners. Across the festive flick, he dooms an entire street and one particularly unlucky family, but despite his strength, ability to jump from rooftop to rooftop like Spider-Man and demonic origins, a lot of his attacks happen off screen.

Sure, he pulls plenty of people to their deaths and gets the drop on them throughout the movie, but you never actually see him do it personally. He's never in the frame, or the movie cuts away right at the critical moment.

And that's when he bothers to enter the game himself. Most of the more violent scenes are actually performed by his ghoulish helpers, be it flaming ginger bread men or f****** terrifying porcelain snake dolls that like to eat kids whole.

Granted, Krampus himself does throw a child into a fiery pit towards the end of the movie, but it's unclear whether this is an actual 'death' in the conventional sense.
