Turoń in polish folkloreis is a horned creature ,it has the characteristics of a bull, a horse and a wolf or a bear. In Poland, in the old tradition of Christmas, people sang carols dressed as gargoyles, devils, death, and was also Turoń

Ah, I see. And you're a big fan of them, huh?
In Austria we have something like this too (it's not the same though). The Krampuß is a humanoid goat-devil creature, and around the 6th of december people dress as Krampuß.

Nowadays they often use less traditional masks... But I like this one: www.8ung.at/joanab1/images/kr5…
It has this archaic feeling to it.

Can you show me a picture of a turon please? When I search for it on Google, I only find food and other stuff...
