Because this is how we remember Guy Fawkes failed attempt to blow up the houses of Parliament.

On the evening of 5th November each year as tradition, many people set of fireworks and light bonfires in celebration of Guy Fawkes and his plot to blow up parliament and King James in 1605. An effigy of Guy Fawkes is placed on top of the bonfire to burn as a symbol of his failure.
