Beware Yule Cats gaze,
Wool socks or new frocks avert,
Crazy sharp claw paws.
When the snow lay round about,
Heathen feline seeks you out!

The mysterious 'Hidden people', also called Huldufolk, are a race of strange beings said to live alongside humans but who choose to remain mostly invisible to them. They are sometimes said to steal human children, hiding them away to live among the hidden folk.

Ever heard of the Icelandic Yule Cat?
Working hard in the autumn months paid off big time for Icelandic farmers. Finish the autumn wool on time, and you get cozy new clothes. Fall behind, and well... better watch out for the Yule Cat! 😱
