Does anyone know any Asian Superstitions? (Sorry)
It has to be asian because I have to do an interview, but I'm chinese...And the whole project idea is how did Halloween change over the years? But yeah, Iono any grandparents living in my neighborhood except for my own, but they didn't have Halloween..So superstitions are my next choice.. For Example: After people pass away, we have to burn money or something to pay respects...and then something about spirits and ghost ...*shrugs* Does anyone know any? Project Due: 11/8 |

uh i dont if this applies to everyone, but i'm half chinese and when someone dies your only allowed to wear white on your head during that day of the funeral otherwise the person who died wont like you in the afterlife (??) i dunno.
i'm also half viet (catholic) so i'm not allowed to be superstitious. at my church though, when someone dies we wear a white patch (clip on) on our shirts for 100 days and we pray every night for 100 days so that the person who died would be happy in heaven. yeah kinda weird |
