Day of the dead

The Day of the Dead, is a holiday that occurs immediately after the Witches Festival on the 1st of Hithui annually.
During the Day of the Dead, the people of Toriel gather in graveyards to celebrate and cherish the spirits of those they have lost. One can find the festivities in the cemeteries of any major city where celebrants cook, drink, don costumes and more.
The spirits of the deads, still close to the world of the living are drawn to the graves. This is why we decorate the graves of our dearly departed with flowers and candles and offerings: to welcome them back, even if only for a time.
