day of the day’s main celebration is during the night of October 31st to November 1st, when believers celebrate their dead relatives by spending the night at their gravesite. The elaborate alters often include candles, flowers, photos, along with any number of ritualized objects from salt, water, bread, to tequila, their relative’s favorite foods, sugar skulls, hobbies, or if they were children the toys they can no longer play with.
