Day of the Dead at Hollywood Forever

This year was my first time seeing the Day of the Dead festivities at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, home to the rich & famous no longer living. The altars people made for it were often highly elaborate and the whole experience was full of captivating & unique sights. I just wish it went on longer into the night, it began wrapping up around 11:30. Will have to come back again next year and get their earlier.

A tribute to Mel Blanc, voice of almost every original Looney Tunes character and hundreds of other voices.

Light projected onto a wall became a venue for shadow dancing to the music at the stage nearby.
