The next few days (Oct 31st, Nov. 1st & Nov. 2nd) are celebrations for the DEAD in most Latin American countries and districts.
This year the Hollywood Forever Cemetery is putting on another BIG celebration...(this is where most the movie stars from Hollywood's Silver Screen Age are buried, including Rudolph Valentino).
Candy is included in these celebrations usually as sugar skulls, decorated with candy flowers.
Traditionally orange marigolds are placed on the graves and family members hold parties for their dearly departed loved ones at the graveside.
