No, Saint Nickolas (or Santa) brings presents (though some people believe that the Christ child does this). The German "Belsnickel" is a counterpart to Santa and is actually the one believed to be the disciplinarian, taking children who have been naughty or sometimes merely leaving lumps of coal and switches.

Is there an evil santa?
In some cultures, yes. The Dutch believe he has an alter ego named 'Black Pete' that puts black coal in bad children's stockings. In Austria and The Netherlands, St. Nicholas has a demon companion named Krumpus that carries the bad children away in a basket.

What does Father Spanker look like?
"Father Spanker", or "Pere Fouettard" Is typically shown as an evil-looking Santa or elf holding a whip or bunch of sticks to spank naughty children, usually shown in older pictures with St. Nicholas or "Santa Claus". "Father Spanker" is also shown as the evil butcher in the story of three children who wandered away and got lost. Cold and hungry, "Pere Fouettard" lured them into his shop where he attacked and salted them away in a large tub. Through the intervention of St. Nicholas the boys were restored back to life, and returned to their families.
