Voodoo believers in Haiti have been performing rituals to appease Gods as part of annual Day of the Dead. The Day of the Dead is celebrated on the first two days of November during All Saints and All Souls Day and voodoo believers and devotees celebrate with candles, alcohol and food.
The festival sees families congregate to remember loved ones who have passed away by celebrating their death with face-painting, storytelling and food offerings. And in Haiti, the celebrations centre around honoring the Haitian voodoo spirits of Baron Samdi and Gede.
People also dress up as voodoo spirit Baron Samedi and honour him by smoking, dancing and drinking rum.
