A great Scottish Christmas story might involve the kelpies during Christmas. Legend has it that on a very cold Christmas night, a young shepherd boy was lost in the moors. The kelpies, which are usually feared water spirits, were moved by the boy's cries. Instead of causing him harm, they led him back to his village. This story shows that even the most feared creatures can have a heart during the Christmas season in Scotland.

One unique element is the Scottish setting. The story might include old castles, misty landscapes, and traditional Scottish villages.

There is no one definitive king named in all versions of the story. It could be seen as a more general representation of a Scottish king, used to convey the moral of the story rather than referring to a particular historical figure. Some might think it could be a king from the Middle Ages perhaps, but there's no solid evidence for that. So, it's hard to say exactly who the Scottish king was in this story.

In a small Scottish town, there was an old man named Angus who always dressed up as Santa Claus for the local children on Christmas. One Christmas, his false beard got stuck in the door as he was entering a house. He had to stand there half - in and half - out while the kids laughed and helped him get free. It was a really funny incident that the kids still talk about every Christmas.

One Scottish Christmas story is about the Hogmanay traditions. On Hogmanay (New Year's Eve in Scotland), it was believed that the first person to cross the threshold of a home in the new year brought good or bad luck. So people would carefully choose who that 'first-footer' would be. Usually, a dark - haired man was preferred as it was thought to bring good fortune.
