At the end of World War I, some soldiers take a book from a dead German. When their commander asks them why they didn’t turn it in with intel, they respond, “It’s not intel. It’s a storybook.” Yes because no one ever tried to hide secret codes in a story book during a war. Geez!
Meanwhile at the orphanage, a girl is practicing alchemy, and a new teacher arrives. Her husband is at the front, which is shorthand for he’s going to die. Sure enough he was one of the soldiers at the beginning and the storybook is given to her as it was with his body.
Nothing much happens for the first hour other than orphans harassing each other. Then sixty minutes in, the excitement mounts as yes, we have a Krampus! And he has glowing eyes. Hurrah! Then the excitement crashes and burns as Krampus speaks so slowly and growly that he bores everyone to death. Oh that pesky Krampus.
Krampus Origins is surprisingly void of Krampus and I have no idea what his origin is because he was so incredibly boring when he spoke.
