We are back in France for a unique Christmas Folktale. Père Fouettard or "Father Whipper" is an interesting sidekick to Old St. Nick. From his humble beginnings as a cannibalistic butcher/innkeeper to his redemption as Santa's enforcer. If you've been naughty this year you may get more than coal as punishment!
