El Colacho is an unusual and weird traditional festival being take place in Castillo de Murcia a town of Burgos province in Spain since 1620. To protect their children from illness, evils and adversities and to keep them devils away, families bring their newborns to participate in the festival. Infants laid in neat rows of pillows spread in street. Men symbolized as devils dressed in bright yellow costumes jumps over the newborns. After the jumping session infancies are considered absolved of man's transgression and they are sprinkled with rose petals before being taken away by their parents.
