The Mischievous Ghost's Day of the Dead Celebration

Once upon a time there was a small village where every year they celebrated the Day of the Dead with a big party. They decorated the cemetery with colorful flowers and placed offerings on the altar to remember their ancestors. One year, a mischievous ghost appeared and decided to play a trick on the villagers. The ghost swapped all the decorations and offerings, putting toys and sweets instead of flowers on the altar, and filling the cemetery with balloons and streamers. The villagers were confused, but soon realized the ghost just wanted to have fun and celebrate with them. From that day on, the tradition of decorating the cemetery with joy and fun was born, and every year the ghost would return to play more tricks and remember the ancestors with laughter.
