In the Spanish-speaking countries of the Americas, people don’t think of the dead as evil spirits. Instead of going treat or treat on Halloween, whole families visit the cemetery on November 1 and 2. They dress in holiday clothing and bring food and flowers to the graves of their loved ones. They spend the day having a pleasant family picnic. Marigolds, the “flowers of the dead", are laid on graves.
