The Ghost Within

Me at Lodi Grape Con, as a mash-up of Harley Quinn and Ghostface. Dubbed, “Mother Death”, as a reference to the original costume in “Scream”, “Father Death”. #cosplaylife

Halloween is almost here. Traditions vary from dressing up and Trick-or-Treating, to costume parties and more. One of the best traditions, in my opinion, is that of “Dia De Muertos”. We celebrate it on the first and second days of November. One of these days, we honor all loved ones who have passed onto the realm of the dead. The other, we specifically honor the innocent ones, those who were taken too soon in their years, our deceased children. As we prepare to recall found memories of those whose bodies have left our sides, I want to remind everyone that Death is but an illusion of separation. The hearts and souls of those who venture into the Spirit Realm, in reality, stay with us…for as long as we remember them, they will forever be The Ghosts Within.
