The large Mexican community makes California the scene of extraordinary parades and celebrations for this tradition.
This Mexican tradition consists of celebrating and welcoming the departed with meals and parties. According to oral legend, the gates of heaven are opened at midnight on October 31, so that the spirits of children who left too soon can rejoin their families for 24 hours. The following day, November 2 - All Souls' Day - is dedicated to the spirits of deceased adults. California, a state with a large Mexican population, is the scene of parades and celebrations that can be quite out of the ordinary, with participants donning make-up of great beauty.
