Coming soon is the short 2 day holiday known as Day of the Dead which takes place this Sunday and Monday. The Holiday is based around the real world Day of the Dead where family members get together and remember those who have passed on. There are a few rewards for this event, including a Macabre Marionette, which is a small pet that looks like a skeleton wearing a sombrero and holding a pair of maracas. This pet can only be used during the Day of the Dead event and cannot be learned or kept.

During the Day of the Dead, which takes place on Sunday and Monday, the people of Azeroth gather in graveyards to celebrate and cherish the spirits of those they have lost. One can find the festivities in the cemeteries of any major city where celebrants cook, drink, don costumes and more.

Can you feel it? The spirit world draws close during the Day of the Dead. This is why we decorate the graves of our dearly departed with flowers and candles and offerings: to welcome them back, even if only for a time. Check out our webpage for the Day of the dead:
