Legend has it Gryla sends out her 13 ugly troll sons called the Yule Lads to round up these children who have been naughty all year for Gryla. She even feeds naughty kids to her pet, the evil monster yule Christmas cat Jolakottur I blogged about earlier.
Icelandic parents have been getting their children by scaring them with folklore and legend of Gryla, who sniffs out trouble making youths with her long nose and whisks them away to her cave, where she will cook them for supper.
