Well, an Iceland Christmas story could be about the jólakötturinn, the Christmas Cat. Legend has it that the jólakötturinn is a huge and rather menacing cat. It prowls around during Christmas time. Farmers used this story to encourage their workers to finish their tasks, like spinning wool. Those who worked hard would get new clothes and not be eaten by the cat. So, it's a story that has a bit of a moral lesson mixed in with the Christmas spirit.
One Icelandic Christmas story is about the Yule Lads. There are 13 Yule Lads who come down from the mountains one by one in the 13 days before Christmas. Each has his own mischievous or sometimes helpful ways. For example, Stekkjarstaur is the one with a peg-leg. He likes to steal milk. Children leave their shoes on the window sill in the hopes of getting small gifts from the Yule Lads, but they also have to be good, or they might get a potato instead of a sweet treat from these unique Christmas characters.
