Lilith (sometimes misspelled Liliht) and Nemrod are duo of processional giant demons in Catalan popular bestiary within Barcelona. They are a couple and are both dressed in black and red. Lilith is a green female winged gargoyle with horns, fangs, red painted nails, and breasts that are not covered by her dress. She can be seen carrying a pitchfork. Nemrod is a red wolf with a single, small horn just above his nose. He appears to carry a hammer of some sort. The 2 were originally a decor element for the Porta de l’Infern (Hell's gate). This gate was partially destroyed as a result of an act of vandalism and so, the 2 were changed to be the live giants that participated in the festivals in Barcelona.
