St. Mikuláš Day – Czech Holiday where… a devil and angel pay a visit to all children. Good behaviour is rewarded in the form of something nice to eat (usually sweets, chocolate or gingerbread), while naughtiness is dealt with by a chain bearing devil, who offers a piece of coal or raw potatoes as poor compensation. Severe naughty-doers face the possibility of being dragged off to hell….Lots of terrified children around the Czech Republic lately!
