Castle of Spirits True Ghost Stories
Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) - Castle of Spirits True Ghost Stories
In this special episode, we honor the vibrant history and evolving symbolism of Día de los Muertos—the Day of the Dead—tracing its roots from Aztec rituals to Chicano street art, and exploring how it bridges cultures across Mexico and the U.S. Far from being a “Mexican Halloween,” Día de los Muertos is a vibrant celebration of life, ancestry, and memory, rooted in Indigenous belief and Catholic ritual. We explore how its iconic imagery—from marigold-covered altars to painted skulls—evolved over time and how Chicano artists of the 1960s and ’70s transformed it into a symbol of identity and resilience. With marigolds, calaveras, and candlelit ofrendas, this sacred holiday honors the dead with joy, not sorrow.
