I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT!

there it's not Santa who brings presents to children, it's St Nicholas, he was a bishop or something if I remember right. He gives oranges and stuff to children but only to those who behaved well. The bad kids though, are being chased and hit by a sort of old psychopath dressed in black. It happens on St Nicholas day. I bet that's what they're talking about.

I R l33t!!!1!11 :D

L337. :P

Yup. Well if you behave you also get the goodies from the psychopath
The Psychpath can do good or bad.
However hes not dressed in black but hes black.... Zwate pieten are color fully dressed.(al sorts of myths of why hes black the most inocent is that hes black going through shimneys. to bring the presents unseen to the kids shoes... yes the gifts are being put in the shoe.)
In worst cases if yr not behaved you'll be put in a sack and transported to spain.

I've found a good resource on this crazy thing.

After reading the entire site (looking at pictures), I fainally understand the true meaning of Kruidnoten.
