From Wikipedia...A calaca (a colloquial Spanish name for skeleton) is a figure of a skull or skeleton (usually human) commonly used for decoration during the Mexican Day of the Dead festival, although they are made all year round. Tracing their origins from Aztec imagery, calacas are frequently shown with marigold leaves and foliage. As with other aspects of the Day of the Dead festival, calacas are generally depicted as joyous rather than mournful figures.
And uh...I agree.
