    Halloween itself is derived from the efforts of the European church to obliterate Celtic culture by declaring the dates of Samhain as a christian holy time, then incorporating and bastardizing many of the “pagan” (pre-church) practices. Doing the same to Dia de los Muertos is english tradition.
