Sugar Skull Costume for Women

Spirited Decisions

What would you do if you had one night to visit the living as a soul that's gone beyond the veil? This might seem like a strange query but it's one worth considering. So many souls simply squander their first Day of the Dead when they could have been making the most of it. The souls get distracted by doing ghostly things like walking through walls and sending chills through the bodies of the living. The thing is, if a soul focuses and gets home on the Day of the Dead then they'll be greeted with a wonderful feast and a party that's just for them! Imagine sleeping for a year and waking up to see that your family hasn't forgotten you. They're waiting. The candles are lit, your favorite music is playing, your drink of choice is on the table. What a wonderful feeling! It would be a pity to spend the night playing deathly party tricks like floating into bank vaults and movie theaters instead.
