The origins of the Day of the Dead can be traced back to ancient indigenous rituals and to the Aztec festival dedicated to a goddess called Mictecacihuatl, known in English as the Lady of the Dead. Largely celebrated in Mexico and by people of Mexican heritage, the holiday includes the tradition of building altars adorned with marigolds, sugar skulls and favorite food and objects of the departed family members. Celebrate your loved ones by adding our festive skull candle holder to your own altar.
