Mexicans are celebrating “Día de Muertos”, or the Day of the Dead, this weekend, a holiday where deceased ancestors are the guests of honor. Around this time of the year, there’s a popular character that always shows up: La Catrina, a skeleton lady who wears an elegant dress and a flowered hat. The World’s Tibisay Zea takes us to a big parade in Mexico City, to tell the story of La Catrina.
