Supernatural of East Meets West
Locally, most of us are familiar with the “Hungry Ghosts” Festival, that takes place yearly on the Seven Lunar month. This is named the “Hungry Ghosts” month because all Chinese worldwide, traditionally believe that the gates of Hell are opened for a month. During this period the dead souls are released to stalk freely in the land of the living. Based on folklores, some of the evil spirits can return to the earth to seek revenge or induce harm if due respects are not bestowed to them. Thus, in order to appease the dead, the Chinese pray to the dead souls with lavish offerings of food, joss sticks, symbolic silver and gold paper ingots and “Hell $$$”. Coupled with these creepy beliefs, the Ghost Festival![]()

is obviously terrifying. The Chinese prefer not to speak ill of the dead, and if possible to avoid them, especially during the late evenings.
In Japan, the Japanese celebrate “Obon” or “Festival of the Lantern” to honour their deceased ancestors yearly. It is an event that lasts for several days. They will hang lanterns outside their homes to guide their beloved ancestors’ spirits back to visit their homes.
On the other hand, the Westerners mark their Halloween 👻 🎃 Eve annually, on 31st October with edibles, laughters and merry makings although they too, have regarded this night to be a night where the spooky dead are free to roam the earth. Truly speaking our counterparts from the European countries, seem to be braver as they opt to dress in scary costumes of monsters or devils to frighten away the evil 👿 🦹♂️ instead of placating to them.
As we journey through Life, we ask ourselves whether is it better to adopt the supernatural beliefs of the East or to favour the Western concepts?
I am a cynic, and I have never believed in the supernatural world until just recently, when I witnessed that sudden cryptic digital display of “666444” on the screen of my untouched smartphone at 1155 hours, on that Halloween Eve. Initially, I did not noticed that errie text, because I was busy monitoring the US stock market. Eventually, when I noticed that sinister text, I was so bewildered and alarmed that I halted all my trading activities immediately.
Looking back at it now, I do not know whether it was just my wild imagination, that has pulled my legs or whether it was my Guardian Angel that has saved me me from a potentially heavy loss that night. Thank God for that creepy prompting which has saved me from a Horroudous 👻 🎃![]()
