Guy Fawkes had rolled 36 barrels of gun powder into the cellars and was waiting for the King when guards broke in and arrested him. They were tortured in the tower of London and killed.

In the days leading up to bonfire night children use the "guys" to ask people for money with the phrase "penny for a guy" and sing the rhyme "Remember, remember the fifth of November, gunpowder, treason, and plot, I see no reason why gunpowder treason will ever be forgot."
