Day of the Dead practices

Translating some posts from this thread bc I like reading "personal/regional experience" threads, especially as someone who's kind of a fake Asian and doesn't know/practice anything lol.

Note: my Filipino is very dodgy (mixed language household, not a native Tagalog speaker, etc) /o\ as usual, corrections are fine

In the spirit of Halloween or "Araw ng Mga Patay," what are your customs and traditions regarding dying, funerals, etc? QRT this.

I'll start: 'wag mag-uwi ng pagkain mula sa burol, kahit kendi lang.
