The Mid-Autumn Festival lasts for three days, and July 15 in the lunar calendar is often called Ghost Festival in China, but in fact, from July 14 to 16 in the lunar calendar, the gates of hell are wide open.

The door of ghosts is open, so that ghosts wandering in the underworld can return to the dead and meet their relatives. However, there are also a large number of lonely ghosts or spectres with hatred who will return to the dead to do evil. So these three days, try to go home as early as possible, and don't wander outside late at night.

At night, someone tells you from behind not to look back, not to accept gifts from strangers, and not to talk to strangers. Don't make a loud noise near the water's edge, mountain stream, cemetery, etc. If you see someone burning paper money by the roadside, try to bypass, don't stare, and don't laugh at sarcasm or disrespect.

Mid-Autumn Festival taboo

1, hanging wind chimes on the bedside: wind chimes are easy to attract good brothers, and sleeping is the most vulnerable time to be "invaded".

2, night tour: people with light characters should never travel at night, otherwise they will only ask for trouble.

3. Burning paper for non-specific occasions: the paper for writing is for good brothers, and the paper for gold is for god. The result of burning paper for writing will only attract more good brothers.

4. Stealing sacrifices: These are foods belonging to good brothers. Using them without their consent will only bring you hard luck.

5, drying clothes at night: When a good brother thinks your clothes look good, he will borrow them and leave his taste on them.

6. Call your name: Don't call your name when you are on a night tour. Try to match it with a code name, so as not to be remembered by your good brothers.
