As narrated in the Bhagavata Purana, the demon king Hiranyakashipu tried to kill his son Prahlad for worshipping Vishnu. Holika, who had a boon to resist fire, sat with Prahlad in a pyre, but Vishnu saved Prahlad and Holika was consumed. The burning of Holika is re-enacted as Holika Dahan the night before Rangwali Holi.
