Meet Italy's Christmas Witch, La Befana, at Epcot's Italy Pavilion! La Befana is visiting and telling stories during Epcot Holidays Around the World. (0:30)
La Befana says she has been bringing gifts long before Santa Claus! (0:33) Instead of flying on a sleigh with reindeer, the Christmas Witch flies on a broom.
While La Befana is a witch, she's a very friendly and good-hearted one! Unlike Santa who visits on Christmas Eve, she visits children in January, on the eve of Epiphany (1:40) She will even teach you how to say "Merry Christmas" in Italian! (3:17)
