Merry Christmas as they say in a lot of places!
In Finland and Scandinavia, the celebration is not called Christmas, yet many international Christmas traditions come from the North. This video explores some old (pagan) traditions from Finland, including the dark origins of Santa Claus.

This was an extremely quickly put together piece so of course I forgot something rather important. Kekri and joulu, both being "magical" times when the year changed, also had strong connection with the (souls of the) dead.
They might visit the house or sauna, the most otherworldly place of the farmstead, but this time of the year it wasn't something ominous according to Risto Pulkkinen.
Ypu just made my day by telling me Finnish Santa is a fairy creature.
very beautiful and informative video 🙂
You couldnt say that scandinavia was the origin of christmas. There are many different christmas traditions in difrent cultures. The youtube channel mind unveiled made a good video of it
Christmas 🎅🏼🎄 is Satanic 👹 Saturnalia 🪐◼️
This was so interesting:How we are molded by our landscapes! Your land is still so wild and wooded and your traditions seem quite wild and dark…and free! Your Art work is striking. I love it.❄️
With regards to the tradition of the Jol Bucks going around engaging shenanigans, I wonder if this ended up merging (?) into the "treat or trick" that modern Westerners claim from Samahin.
It is more important than ever to preserve and practice the Finno Ugric traditions.
Thank you for the upload.
Greetings from Hungary.
Magnificent!
Kiitos

I love that this guy has such an aggressive attitude towards monotheistic conquest. We need more of this in society
Tuu tuuu tupakanrulllla
What a great channel! ,my people left in 1880,but still finn/sammi
Looks like a pasty there starting on frame 1:37, but I suppose it isn't. Pasty would be a good Christmas food. You draw a mean looking Santa. That history comic could be a real success. Happy New Year!
You should check out Baltic Empire. He does videos on Vikings and the history of countries around Baltics. He also has a channel about pirate history called Gold and Gunpowder.
Could you make a video about Finland before Vikings. Finland in 700s to be precise. I have so little knowledge of that time period.
Your drawings ar again so excellent and so interesting to watch an listen to your tradition!
Im a bit uninformed but I wonder if the Sami tradition is different around this time? Also love the content Have a merry paganmass
Nice!
I love killing Grumpus in World of Warcraft when his character comes around during the holidays. He is based on Krampus, who is a Christmas monster up in those parts somewhere I think…maybe not. Great video either way. I know Glenn Danzig was in a band called Samhain for some time. I saw him perform live once near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Good music.
You cannot celeberate CHRISTmas like a pagan. Plus, paganism is shit.
Jahas. Ja sitte vuoden päästä pitääkin kokeilla tommosta joulua. Ja on muuten päheen näkönen pässin kallo pukinlakilla. Hyvin toimis leimana iholla
glad to see finnish traditions aren't finished yet
Joululimppu with butter for me !!!! Merry hoho from Thunder bay!!!
check out Juha Y. Pentikäinen on shamanism. Note the ancient shamanism of Finnic peoples and the similarity to the shaman flying with his deer into the next world to obtain answers/wisdom for his people and returning bearing these gifts
Santa Claus was the shaman of the village. Picking mushrooms and giving them to everybody.
Thank you for the information.
Fantastic, sir.
Seems like Joulupukki is one those winter celebrating figures that have become heavily influenced from the American Santa Clause in recent time.
Hyvää Joulua !!
kiitos tästä antti, ja hyvää joulua sinnepäin…
Hyvää Joulua!
Hyvähe ompi toivohime mejä Jouluaika ku riittähe viinaset vaeltavie viina peikkoje
Hyvää Joulua!
