Día de los Muertos Camila Boyd
October 31Infants and children who have died are angelitos, or "little angels." They follow the path of marigolds home, where their families have altars with pan de muertos, sweet tamales and sugar calaveras.
November 1The angelitos must be gone. The offerings at the altars are appointed for the "faithful dead" or adult souls with pan de muertos, tamales, mole, cigarettes and tequila.
November 2Mummers run around town wearing masks to chase the stubborn souls back to the land of the dead.
