Locals commemorated their dead by burning wood at the cemetery.

Footage shows the residents fixing pieces of pine wood near the graves of their departed loved ones in the mountain town of Sagada in the Philippines during the Fire Festival 'Panagapoy' on November 2.

The flames illuminated the final resting place at night, which made a mesmerising spectacle that attracted curious tourists.

Followers believe the wood from the pine trees would serve as a guiding light for their dead and bring warmth to their souls.
