«It's only me. This party is great fun, isn't it?» - ―Teebo and Wicket W. Warrick in costume on Halloween
A ghost was a type of figure in the folklore of the Jedi Knights[2] and the Ewoks[1] of Bright Tree Village, located on the Forest Moon of Endor.[3] During the yearly festival known as Hallowe'en, many Ewoks dressed up as ghosts as part of the festivities. A ghost costume consisted of a white bolt of cloth pulled over the Ewok's head with round circles serving as eye holes.[1] In 3 ABY,[4] for instance, the Ewoks Teebo and Wicket W. Warrick chose to wear ghost costumes for the holiday. In this guise, Teebo scared Warrick as a prank.[1]
Behind the scenes
In real life, ghosts appear in most belief systems. They are generally believed to be the lingering spirit of a deceased human.
