DAY OF THE DEAD

Christians around the world mark All Saints Day on November 1, a day when "heaven comes that much closer to this side of eternity," as a Catholic priest told Fox News Digital this week. Also known as "All Hallows' Day" or the "Solemnity of All Saints," All Saints Day is a celebration of saints, both known and unknown.
