Despite the white faces and the skulls, it's not meant to be a spooky holiday and it's not Halloween. Also known as Día De Los Muertos, the celebration originated in central and southern Mexico. Those who celebrate it believe that at midnight on October 31, the souls of all deceased children & pets come down from heaven and reunite with their families on November 1st, and the souls of deceased adults come visit on November 2nd.
