In "The House on Mango Street," Esperanza compares her uncles to calaveras, or skeletons, to highlight their ghostly, lifeless presence and the way they seem disconnected from her life. This metaphor emphasizes her feelings of alienation and the stark contrast between her vibrant aspirations and their stagnant existence. The comparison underscores the theme of identity and the struggle to break free from familial and cultural constraints.
Your aunts and uncles are the sisters and brothers of your parents. So they are "blood related." But you also call the husband of your mother's sister your uncle, and he is not "blood related." So aunts and uncles are not always really related to you.
