We have something similar here, it's called Funken. But we have a witch on top, which symbolizes the winter. So it's a little bit more macabre.

Klingt wirklich etwas seltsam... wo lebst du denn? LG Kadna
Hier ist das ganz normal :-D
Am äßersten Zipfel vom Allgäu richtung Bodensee runter im schönen Schwabenländle.
A bit like the Sechseläuten which I described in my reply to @phortun ' s comment. But certainly more frightening since the snowman Böögg has hardly any similarity with a real human.
I really like these traditions and it is to be hoped that they will remain being cultivated.
It is in principle the same as with the Böögg, except that the winter is symbolized here with a witch. That's why most of our fool guilds are rather demonic/creepy.
I think such traditions will be cultivated for a long time because they somehow belong to social life together.
