Do the spanish celebrate Halloween

Answer 1

Not really. Instead, they celebrate their own holiday, known as "dios de Las Muertos" or "Day of the Dead". It is similar to Halloween in the sense that it involves ides of ghosts and spirits and treats and costumes, but it is more of a holiday to honor those who have passed on and celebrate the idea of a happy afterlife.

Answer 2

Spanish-speaking countries, especially Mexico, Latin America and Spain (Barcelona is in Spain.) celebrate "El Dia los Muertos," the days of the dead, a celebration of life from beginning to end. A three-day celebration that begins in the evening of October 31 and ends on November 2, it is a time for family to remember and honor the dead, who are believed to return to their homes on Halloween.

A joyful and happy time, families gather at gravesides on November 2 for picnics. They clean up the graves and adorn them with flowers and wreaths, and gather around to share stories of their loved ones.

Parades are held in villages. People dress up as skeletons and dance in the streets. Feasts are held in homes and loaves of bread, called "Bread of the Dead" are given as gifts. Families also attend candle lit ceremonies in church and offer prayers.
