On December 9, 2023, menacing participants clad in elaborate Krampus costumes parade through the town square. These terrifying figures, complete with large twisted horns, snarling masks, and dark fur, hold blazing torches that illuminate their fearsome appearances. Against the backdrop of the town's festive holiday lights and traditional Alpine architecture, the fiery spectacle creates a captivating contrast. Onlookers, bundled in warm winter attire, gather to watch the event, adding to the vibrant and festive atmosphere. The Krampus Run is a centuries-old Bavarian tradition that brings the folklore of Krampus to life, blending eerie theatrics with the spirit of the holiday season. The Krampus is a horned anthropomorphic figure deeply rooted in the folklore of Central and Eastern Alpine regions. Traditionally, he is said to accompany Saint Nicholas during his visits to children on the night of December 5, known as Krampusnacht, just before the Feast of St. Nicholas on December 6. In this folklore, Saint Nicholas rewards well-behaved children with small gifts, while the Krampus punishes those who have been naughty, often using birch rods to scare them into better behavior. Today, the Krampus is prominently featured in traditional parades, such as the Krampuslauf, or 'Krampus run,' where young men dressed as Krampus attempt to frighten onlookers with their mischievous antics, further cementing his place in local customs and celebrations.

The family Scarabaeidae, as currently defined, consists of over 35,000 species of beetles worldwide. They are often called scarabs or scarab beetles. Anomala bengalensis is a species of scarab beetle in the Rutelidae family that undergoes complete metamorphosis, including a pupal stage. It was first described by Blanchard in 1850. Anomala bengalensis is a pest that consumes the roots of grasses, making it a significant concern for agricultural, horticultural, and silvicultural crops.

The family Scarabaeidae beetles or scarabs or scarab beetles vary considerably in habits, with many species feeding on manure or on decomposing plant materials, others on growing roots or leaves, and a few on fungi. These beetles are one of the most popular families with insect collectors because of the large size and beautifully coloured, hard, highly polished forewings of many species. White grubs are larvae of scarab beetles (Scarabaeidae). White grubs are creamy white, medium to large, with a distinct brown head capsule, C-shaped body with prominent legs and a slightly enlarged abdomen. Scarabs have long life cycles, typically 1-4 years. Species that are potato pests cut roots and stems and make large, clean, shallow circular surface wounds in tubers. Infestations are usually worse when potatoes are planted in weedy fields or fields previously in sod. White grubs have become increasingly troublesome in Asia and Central America since the phasing out of chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides. Major pest genera in India include Anomala spp. and Melolontha spp. In the Americas, Phyllophaga is the most economically important genus. A Scarab beetle larva or White grub is running across the yard at Tehatta, West Bengal; India on 10/08/2023.
