Befana
Befana is an old woman who delivers gifts to children throughout Italy on Epiphany Eve (the night of January 5) similar to Santa Claus. But children get gifts from both Santa and Befana.
In popular folklore Befana visits all the children of Italy on the eve of the Feast of the Epiphany to fill their stockings with candy and presents if they are good. Or a lump of coal or dark candy if they are bad.
