Mexican people says that they can talk to their dead ones on day of the dead. I am very curious to know that do the dead people come alive on day of the dead.

The Mexican holiday of Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, takes place over the first two days of November. Their beginnings are a mixture of Native American civilization and a set of Catholic holidays. While the holiday's observances encompass expending time in cemeteries, producing shrines to the dead, and brandishing creative representations of skulls and skeletons, the event is festive, other than morbid. Death isn't glimpsed as the end of one's life, but as a natural part of the life cycle; the dead extend to live much as they did in their inhabits, and arrive back to visit the dwelling every year. It is usually accepted that the spirits of one's family come back dwelling to connect in the Day of the Dead festivities. First those who passed away in infancy arrive dwelling, and then the older young children, and eventually those who passed away one time they'd come to adulthood. Families set up altars (or ofrendas) in their dwellings, festively adorned in brilliant colors and laden with the very well liked nourishment of their dead. Typically, the altars comprise photos of the dead, representations of things they admired, and pieces comprising the four elements: candles for blaze, beverages for water, crop for soil, and fluttering tissue-paper adornments for wind. The dead take in the essence of the nourishment, which will subsequent be consumed by the living. In some localities, families proceed to the graveyard to commemorate through the night. They clean and adorn the graves, occasionally setting up ofrendas on the gravestones, as chimes are rung.
