在墨西哥，有一個跟萬圣節(jié)相似的節(jié)日，即“亡靈節(jié)”

The Mexican Days of the Dead Festival shares some of its origins with Halloween. And some of the practices today are also similar, from decorating with pictures of skeletons, to ghoulishly shaped sweets. The Aztecs’ Festival of the Dead went on for nearly two months in which the fall harvest was celebrated and death was honored. Aztecs and Mayans both believed that one day of the year the souls of the departed would return to the realm of the living, where they could visit their families and loved ones.

墨西哥“亡靈節(jié)”和“萬圣節(jié)”的起源有部分相同。現(xiàn)在有些活動仍然相似，如裝飾骷髏圖片、形狀可怕的糖果等。這個阿茲特克人的節(jié)慶持續(xù)近兩個月，慶祝秋收，紀念亡靈。阿茲特克人和瑪雅人都相信一年中有一天，已經(jīng)離去的靈魂會重返人間探望家人和親人。

Families place photographs of their loved ones who have passed on at the deceased’s gravesite or on a family altar. They also place offerings of flowers, drinks and food alongside the photographs. Thisritual is particularly important for those who have been lost in the year since the previous festival. Sweets, fruits, and other foods are joined by the staples: bread, salt, and water. Grooming supplies, such as a washbasin and soap, are provided for the spirits to tidy themselves after their long journey.
