Events related to Day of the Dead in Cholula extend over five days, and are based on rites from the pre-Hispanic period.
The first day is 28 October, when a flower-covered cross is placed on homes to welcome deceased loved ones.
The souls that arrive on this date are those who died in accidents.
On the 29th, those who died from drowning or suffocation arrive.
On the 30th, it is the souls of deceased children in limbo, and on the 31st other children.
The first and second are for adults.
As in other parts of Mexico, the dead are received through large altars placed in homes, filled with the food and drink they enjoyed in life as well as flowers and other decorations.
