Witness Encountered KRAMPUS-LIKE 'NUUTTIPUKKI' HUMANOID in Finnish Countryside!
"It reminded me of Finnish and Scandinavian folklore and a creature called "Nuuttipukki," which resembles a northern Scandinavian version of Krampus."
The following account was forwarded to me by a colleague:
"This happened on December 26, 2021. My sister and I had just visited our grandparents who live on a farm in the remote Finnish countryside. It was not particularly late, perhaps around seven in the evening, but this being the north, the road was pitch black and there were no streetlights.
My sister was focused on driving carefully, as you never knew when a deer might jump out on the road, but I was looking around at the side of the road, lit by the car's headlights. Suddenly, I saw the shape of a slightly unnaturally tall man standing perfectly still at the side of the road, simply staring blankly ahead while remaining still. The humanoid figure seemed to pay no attention to us or the car.
The very moment I saw the humanoid figure, my brain sensed danger, I almost jumped on my seat, and my heart started beating extremely rapidly. I had never experienced that sort of sudden visceral fear before and my sudden reaction freaked out my sister who was driving. I quickly looked back and the figure was still there, but very quickly it became too dark to see.
This was a very remote road with multiple kilometres to the nearest farms and there were no street lights. In theory, it is not impossible for a tall person to have been walking in the area and stopping to let the car pass, but this was but there were no houses anywhere close, it was a pitch dark road, and the temperatures were freezing. The way the humanoid was just blankly staring ahead was also very unnatural.
I don't know what I saw, but it reminded me of Finnish and Scandinavian folklore and a creature called "Nuuttipukki" or "Kekripukki", which resembles a northern Scandinavian version of Krampus. The season would match. However, while I didn't see the humanoid for very long, it did not seem very goat-like, although it did seem to be around two metres tall." V
NOTE: According to the lore, and unlike Santa Claus, Nuuttipukki was a scary character (cf. Krampus). The men dressed as Nuuttipukki wandered from house to house, came in, and typically demanded food from the household, especially leftover alcoholic beverages. Unless Nuuttipukki received a salary from the host, he committed evil deeds. Lon
