Summary

The Hungry Ghost Festival is a time when the gates to the spirit world open and visitors from the other realm can walk the earth. These ghosts are often very hungry, especially those who had violent or tragic deaths. Thankfully there are ways to abate these spirits, by following strict rules and respectfully leaving an offering of food. Just make sure not to forget any of them or you may find yourself face to face with a very angry entity.
