Shameless plug for the neighbors with a similar fun custom: the "Zvončari" (the bell-men) [1]. One detail I didn't see on the Slovenian side is "the Devil" which is a single person dressed in all-black, black face paint, and horns to represent the devil, and is supposed to mingle and pretend to cause trouble - push people, hug the onlookers making sure to leave face paint marks, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zvon%C4%8Dari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zvon%C4%8Dari https://hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zvon%C4%8Dari https://hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zvon%C4%8Dari
