Probably one of the weirdest celebrations in the world takes place in Bolivia and it is known as the Day of the Skulls. I know that this might sound crazy for any other people but for Bolivians parading human skulls in the streets it’s just tradition. This Day of the Skulls celebration is the Bolivian version of the “Day of the Dead,” a time many Bolivians use to honor those that have passed. While the more well-known Day of the Dead is celebrated on November 1 and 2, the Day of the Skulls celebrations take place annually a week later on November 9. Here’s how it looks in pictures:
