In the United States, our Halloween festivities have roots dating back to the traditions surrounding All Souls’ Day and the Day of the Dead. In stark contrast to modern notions of Halloween as a family-friendly celebration, ancient revelers believed that the spirits of the deceased inhabited the streets, their restless souls searching for a means to transcend to the great beyond. In Mexico and select South American nations, Día de Muertos – or Day of the Dead – unfolds as a vibrant, three-day tribute to honor the memories of those who have passed away. For those who observe this beloved custom, we’ve got you well taken care of.
