Halloween and Día de Los Muertos
It’s fascinating to learn more about various celebrations of people all over the world. Let’s talk about Halloween and Día de Los Muertos today, the two well-known celebrations in the United States and Mexico.
Although Halloween and Día de Los Muertos are celebrated around the same time, they are not the same. Halloween is celebrated on October 31st. On this day, Americans decorate their homes with scary decorations. Children dress up in various costumes and go around their neighborhood asking for candy. It’s trick-or-treating, the children’s favorite on Halloween evening.
Different from Halloween, people in Mexico celebrate Día de Los Muertos or The Day of the Dead on November 2nd every year. Mexican people believe that the dead people return to their homes on this day. They build an altar for their dead relatives and decorate it with candy, flowers, photographs, food and drinks, and fresh water. They also visit their relatives’ graves on this day.
