關於壓歲錢，有一個流傳很廣的故事。古時候，有一種小妖叫“祟”，大年三十晚上出來用手去摸熟睡著的孩子的頭，孩子往往嚇得哭起來，接著頭疼發熱，變成傻子。因此，家家都在這天亮著燈坐著不睡，叫做“守祟”。
有一家夫妻倆老年得子，視為心肝寶貝。到了年三十夜晚，他們怕“祟”來害孩子，就拿出八枚銅錢同孩子玩。孩子玩累了睡著了，他們就把八枚銅錢用紅紙包著放在孩子的枕頭下邊，夫妻倆不敢合眼。半夜裡一陣陰風吹開房門，吹滅了燈火，“祟”剛伸手去摸孩子的頭，枕頭邊就迸發道道閃光，嚇得“祟”逃跑了。第二天，夫妻倆把用紅紙包八枚銅錢嚇退“祟”的事告訴了大家，以後大家學著做，孩子就太平無事了。
原來八枚銅錢是八仙變的，暗中來保護孩子的。因為“祟” 與“歲”諧音，之後逐漸演變為“壓歲錢”。

當“年”獸象往年一樣準備闖進村肆虐的時候，突然傳來爆竹聲，“年”獸混身顫慄，再也不敢向前湊了，原來“年”獸最怕紅色，火光和炸響．這時大門大開，只見院內一位身披紅袍的老人哈哈大笑，“年”獸大驚失色，倉惶而逃．
第二天，當人們從深山回到村里時，發現村里安然無恙，這才恍然大悟，原來白髮老人是幫助大家驅逐“年”獸的神仙，人們同時還發現了白髮老人驅逐“年”獸的三件法寶．從此，每年的除夕，家家都貼紅對聯，燃放爆竹，戶戶燈火通明，守更待歲．這風俗越傳越廣，就成了中國民間最隆重的傳統節日“過年” 。
