It's the time of the month again. Hungry Ghost Festival. Scarry....
This month is Lunar Calender's 7th month....marks the period of our Hungry Ghost Festival. In Malaysia, one'll noticed many Chinese people offering offering their prayers using huge joss sticks, burning Hell currency at every crook and corner. Aplenty of foods were offered like a feast. It is obvious that Hungry Ghost Festival is rather important among the Chinese people esp the Taoist.
Hmmmm...GHOST are you afraid of them ? During this period, the Cninese believed that we need to to appease "them" so that "they" do not hurt us. Makeshift stages were erected with tong tong chiang..opera show, or even the sexy clad singers lunging their heart rendering oldies ago-go.
For this month, many would avoid watching Horror movies, so the scarrie feelings doesn't lingers till midnight.....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
