相傳，中國(guó)古時(shí)候有一種叫“年”的怪獸，頭長(zhǎng)觸角，兇猛異常。“年”長(zhǎng)年深居海底，每到除夕才爬上岸，吞食牲畜傷害人命。因此，每到除夕這天，村村寨寨的人們扶老攜幼逃往深山，以躲避“年”獸的傷害。
這年除夕，桃花村的人們正扶老攜幼上山避難，從村外來(lái)了個(gè)乞討的老人，只見(jiàn)他手拄拐杖，臂搭袋囊，銀須飄逸，目若朗星。鄉(xiāng)親們有的封窗鎖門(mén)，有的收拾行裝，有的牽牛趕羊，到處人喊馬嘶，一片匆忙恐慌景象。這時(shí)，誰(shuí)還有心關(guān)照這位乞討的老人。
只有村東頭一位老婆婆給了老人一些食物，并勸他快上山躲避“年”獸，那老人捋髯笑道：“婆婆若讓我在家呆一夜，我一定把‘年’獸攆走。”老婆婆驚目細(xì)看，見(jiàn)他鶴發(fā)童顏、精神矍鑠，氣宇不凡?？伤匀焕^續(xù)勸說(shuō)，乞討老人笑而不語(yǔ)。婆婆無(wú)奈，只好撇下家，上山避難去了。
半夜時(shí)分，“年”獸闖進(jìn)村。它發(fā)現(xiàn)村里氣氛與往年不同：村東頭老婆婆家，門(mén)貼大紅紙，屋內(nèi)燭火通明。“年”獸渾身一抖，怪叫了一聲?！澳辍背牌偶遗暺蹋S即狂叫著撲過(guò)去。將近門(mén)口時(shí)，院內(nèi)突然傳來(lái)“砰砰啪啪”的炸響聲，“年”渾身戰(zhàn)栗，再不敢往前湊了。原來(lái)，“年”最怕紅色、火光和炸響。這時(shí)，婆婆的家門(mén)大開(kāi)，只見(jiàn)院內(nèi)一位身披紅袍的老人在哈哈大笑?！澳辍贝篌@失色，狼狽逃竄了。
第二天是正月初一，避難回來(lái)的人們見(jiàn)村里安然無(wú)恙十分驚奇。這時(shí)，老婆婆才恍然大悟，趕忙向鄉(xiāng)親們述說(shuō)了乞討老人的許諾。鄉(xiāng)親們一齊擁向老婆婆家，只見(jiàn)婆婆家門(mén)上貼著紅紙，院里一堆未燃盡的竹子仍在“啪啪”炸響，屋內(nèi)幾根紅蠟燭還發(fā)著余光......
欣喜若狂的鄉(xiāng)親們?yōu)閼c祝吉祥的來(lái)臨，紛紛換新衣戴新帽，到親友家道喜問(wèn)好。這件事很快在周?chē)謇飩鏖_(kāi)了，人們都知道了驅(qū)趕“年”獸的辦法。
從此每年除夕，家家貼紅對(duì)聯(lián)、燃放爆竹；戶(hù)戶(hù)燭火通明、守更待歲。初一一大早，還要走親串友道喜問(wèn)好。這風(fēng)俗越傳越廣，成了中國(guó)民間最隆重的傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。
