Have a Creepy Christmas With these 30+ Vintage Victorian Christmas Cards

I’m not sure what I’d think if somebody had sent me a Christmas card with a murderous frog on it!

When we’ve previously looked back at all things vintage we’ve never been disappointed.

We’ve seen crazy and offensive advertising and also some very bizarre photos from days gone by which sometimes have left us a bit confused as to what the hell was going on.

Let’s step back in time to the Victorian days and take a look at a collection of old Christmas card designs that people would have sent to loved ones over the festive season. Who needs Jolly Old Saint Nick when you have evil Krampus kidnapping your children and frogs committing murder! It’s all part of a Victorian Christmas.

Greetings from your lovable Krampus
