Step into Panteón de Belén with The Grim as host Kristin explores one of Mexico's most haunted cemeteries on this special Halloween and Día de los Muertos episode.

Beneath gothic arches and jasmine-scented air lies a world where faith, folklore, and the restless dead intertwine. Built to preserve life as part of the Hospital of Belén, this sacred ground became a city of the dead after the 1833 cholera epidemic.

Discover the legends:

• The Vampire of Guadalajara and his cursed tree
• Victoriana Hurtado's tragic tale
• The spectral boy Nachito
• The Lovers of Belén—united only in death
• Ghostly carriages, buried treasure, and pirate spirits

As the veil thins on All Hallows' Eve, candlelit altars blaze and marigold offerings guide souls home for one more night. Where Día de los Muertos transforms sorrow into celebration.

📍 Panteón de Belén, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico
⚰️ Founded: 1848
🕯️ Where fear and celebration meet

Perfect for: Día de los Muertos enthusiasts, Mexico travel planners, vampire folklore lovers, Halloween listeners
