Abstract

The article focuses on the evolution and changes on how people perceive death and mortality. The author mentions during ancient times body parts of dead people were taken and made into sacred relics and people gather together to honor the dead. She states that the celebration of Halloween in the modern generation has changed, wherein the spirits and ghosts people appease have been replaced by children wearing their costumes asking for treats.
