Nian beast, also known as Nian, is an evil beast in China folk myths and legends. The earliest newspaper article published in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China was Old Records of Hutong Conversations. It is an animal, locked on a stone pillar in the sky and cared for by Wei Xing. According to legend, in ancient times, every New Year's Eve, fierce monsters broke into the village to eat people, hence the name Nian Beast. Later, people found that Nian beast had three fears, namely loud noise, red light and firelight, so every household set off firecrackers, posted Spring Festival couplets and lit lights every year to scare Nian beast away. These habits gradually become the custom of the New Year.
