He 162 in strange Winter/Night camouflage

Same in Hungary. Mikulás (approx. St. Claus), dressed in red-white garment, actually comes on the night of Dec. 6.
On the night of Dec. 24 to 25 there are the Angels who show up (with presents, of course).

Well, its different by us in Serbia. We adopted the Coca-Cola invented red-dressed long-bearded Santa, but he is bringing the presents on the new-years eve, which we do celebrate with the rest of the world.
Our Christmas is on 7 January.
Then we await ortodox new-years eve which is on 13/14 January.
Adding to that, each family has its patron saint which is celebrated on that saint's day, and mine is Saint John, which is on 20 January.
As each of these "happenings" is followed by massive eat/drink/headache, I never fully recover until March.

Merry Christmas and happy new year!
