On the evening of Tuesday, August 13, a day considered by many to be unlucky, a video of an alleged ghost went viral on social media. It is that of a little girl playing inside a cemetery located in the municipality of Santiago Miahuatlán, in the state of Puebla. This material raised many doubts because it was speculated that it was a setup, while others stated that it was a real entity. While the situation is being clarified, it was revealed that this site where thousands of bodies rest in peace has already been closed by the same authorities.
The video that has aroused the curiosity of the community was recorded on Monday night in the local cemetery, three hours after closing time. This material, disseminated by local media, shows a shadow moving through the fence that closes the front of the place.
Numerous residents have speculated about what that shadow could be. According to some, it is a girl running from one side to the other as if she were playing, even though the image is not very clear. This detail has contributed to the concern of the inhabitants, given that the cemetery was closed at the time of the recording and the presence of people inside was not expected.
The images were captured around 9:00 p.m., as reported. This time has been a point of discussion, since the cemetery closes its doors three hours earlier, that is, at 6:00 p.m., which generates questions about who or what could be moving around the place at that time.
The video has provoked various reactions in the community. Many people have shown their intrigue and have begun to formulate hypotheses about the event. Even so, the lack of a clear image has prevented a precise conclusion from being reached about the identity of the shadow.
On social networks and different digital platforms, comments and theories about the video have multiplied. Some users suggest that it could be a visual trick or editing, while others are convinced that it is a paranormal phenomenon.
What did the authorities say?
In light of the controversy generated by the video, the City Council of Santiago Miahuatlán confirmed that the municipal cemetery had been closed in order to investigate the events and thus avoid speculation among the population.
Although it is not known when it will be reopened to the public in order to visit the graves located there, local authorities asked not to speculate, which was not heard by residents and Internet users who have stressed that it is the daughter of the guard or, in fact, that it is an entity.

Although there are numerous stories and legends about ghosts in Mexico, it is important to note that there is no scientific evidence to support their existence.
The experiences that some people attribute to ghosts can have various explanations, such as:
Psychological phenomena: such as pareidolia (perceiving faces or figures in random patterns) or suggestion.
Physical phenomena: such as unexplained sounds or lights that may have a natural origin.
Failures in perception: the human brain can misinterpret sensory information under certain circumstances.
