Aug 17 Ghost month begins

The 7th lunar month is "Ghost month" in Taiwan.
Hungry ghosts are released from hell and
can cause problems to folks on earth.
The temples were packed today.

Very interesting series Randy. I'm all for a Ghost Month here in the states. We could fit it mid way between the 4th of July and Labor day. v
