In many parts of East and Southeast Asia, August isn't just a hot summer month—it’s a spiritual time full of reverence, caution, and rituals. Known as Ghost Month, this period is steeped in tradition, superstition, and ancestral respect.
Festivals of the dead have been celebrated throughout the world for centuries with Obon being but one such festival. It has morphed and changed over the centuries but remains at its core a tradition of honor and celebration.
