Krampus masks/accessories
 
I am interested in obtaining contact information for craftsmen of authentic Austrian Krampus masks/accessories since I am a member of one of these groups in the United States.

Try this. I used Google and this was one of the first links but there are many others. I just googled authentic Krampus Masks and got quite a few hits.

I was not aware that there was a Krampus cult in the U.S. That's pretty cool. Tell us more.

I just joined the Dallas Krampus group. They have been together I believe 2 years so relatively new. The founder of the group had ties I believe to Austria and along with another gentlemen who operates a Halloween Haunt house they hold the ceremonies in downtown Dallas. Last year's Krampus walk had 1000 or more people so relatively small. I have seen Krampus celebrations held from Wisconsin to the East Coast, but again nothing like in Europe. Many of the people in the United States I believe are drawn to Krampus because of the ever growing popularity of Halloween in the US.
