While Spiritlandia and Muertos Fest — two of the city’s largest celebrations of the year — are behind us, Día de los Muertos is still in full force in the Alamo City.
According to tradition, the gates of heaven are opened at midnight on Oct. 31 and the spirits of the dead can rejoin their families over the next two days, extending celebrations until Nov. 2.
