It is a celebration of the arrest and conviction of Guy (Guido) Fawkes who - with others - planned to blow up the Houses of Parliament in 1605. The date is known as Bonfire Night or Guy Fawkes night when an effigy of Guy Fawkes (a Guy) is burned on bonfires throughout the country and fireworks are also ignited in celebration. Guy Fawkes was put to death by being burned at the stake. The displays are particularly appealing to children who learn a little rhyme; Remember, remember the 5th of November, gunpowder, treason and plot. Its origins are a bit gruesome but most people don't think of the original reason for the celebration.
Do Americans celebrate Guy Fawkes day?
The original celebration of Guy Fawkes Night happened partly because Guy Fawkes plot was intended to help return England to the Catholic Church, and most English people were very much against that. America's traditions were based on religious tolerance, and the celebration of Guy Fawkes Night would seem contrary to their feelings. The celebration of Guy Fawkes Night is partly because of the fact that the king was saved from the plotters. Americans generally do not care for the monarchy. Americans celebrate Thanksgiving and Veterans Day in November, so they do not much need another holiday that month.
