Following Hallowe'en (All Hallow's [Saint's] Eve) and All Saints Day is All Souls Day, when you pray for the souls of those who are not quite ready for Heaven. This is related to the Hispanic holiday growing more popular in the current years, Day of the Dead, in which family members visit the graves of the dead, clean the gravesites, and pray for the souls of departed family members.
