About Day of the Dead
Day of the Dead, or Dia de los Muertos, is a joyous holiday, originating in Mexico that blends native Aztec and Roman Catholic traditions and beliefs to celebrate and honor the lives of deceased friends and family members. In this tradition, death is not seen as the end, but rather a new stage of life. It is now celebrated with cultural variations in areas throughout Latin America and the United States.
