Feast of the Dead
Feast of the Dead

 

 



Golden servers are an A Curious Invitation institution. For All Hallows' Eve they lose their shimmer and hold court in a blood soaked hue as they slip an oyster or two down a gluttonous gullet.. Their transformation pays homage to the medeival mortuary custom, the Huron Feast of the Dead where families disinterred their relatives' corpses despite various degrees of decomposition to clean and clothe the remains so they could attend a familial feast before reburial.
