As early as 1749, Corpus Christi was celebrated and men, women and children dressed as devils to fulfill promises made to the Blessed Sacrament.

[4] Regarding other stories about the Yare brotherhoods are, some references are in the novel Peonía by the writer Manuel Vicente Romero Garcia, describing in a clear and illustrative manner how the dancers were Cúa devils in the 1870s.

[5] There are 11 groups recognized as guilds,[citation needed] societies or associations which constitute hierarchies to dance annually and make promises to worship the Blessed Sacrament.

In contemporary times, groups have organized non-profit associations that access public and private funding to improve their organizational strategies and reach a wider audience.

They also parade through the streets, dressed in their red costumes and masks, dancing to the rhythm of corríos (octosyllabic musical poems).

Finally, the devils surrender and kneel in front of the Eucharist to show submission, dancing to the rhythm of the bamba, a music style that is more reverential.
