Abstract: "Each year on Carnival Monday, the remote district of Paramin, Trinidad erupts at dusk into an inferno of blue-painted 'jabs' of 'devils', dancing to the beating of fired biscuit tins or 'pans'. No one knows why this happens, just that it is a tradition that has been passed on from father to son for many generations. This is the story of the Fatima Trace 'jabs', a band of brothers headed by Kootoo, King Devil."
