The Day of the Dead festival in Mexico celebrates storytelling through the sharing of oral histories and the creation of altars called "ofrendas." These altars honor deceased loved ones, featuring photographs, favorite foods, and mementos. The stories shared often reflect the lives and memories of those who have passed, creating a connection between the living and the dead. Families come together to reminisce and celebrate the memories, ensuring that their loved ones are remembered and cherished in a vibrant, joyous way.
