Step-by-step explanation:

Halloween Is All About The Legend Of Stingy Jack And It Is More Of A Horror And Fun Day To Celebrate With Candy's, Decoration And Costumes! At The Same Time, Halloween Is Known As All Saints Day And All Hallows Eve!

Dia De Los Muertos Is All About Remembering The Loved Ones Who Passed And The Cempasuchil (Mexican Marigold Flower) Is Spreaded Around To Show The Dead The Path To There Relatives Home.

Firstly there is a major difference in the way the dead are regarded during each of these festivals. Halloween focuses upon the grisly or frightening aspects of death and the dead while the Day of the Dead is very much a celebration of their lives, a happy occasion to honor and remember loved ones who have passed on.
