Abstract

This paper discusses a popular but hardly investigated cult of an informal saint Santa Muerte (Saint Death). Santa Muerte enjoys growing popularity in Mexico and neighboring countries. One of the reasons for it is the cult's extensive presence in mass media. It remains exposed to influence of other popular religious traditions, including Spiritualism and elements of the New Age spirituality.
