Exploring the concept of hungry ghosts from Chinese tradition, this chilling collection delves into tales of those who return to haunt the living due to unjust deaths or unfulfilled appetites. Ying Chang Compestine weaves a narrative that spans from the construction of the Great Wall in 200 B.C.E. to contemporary times, illustrating how these spectral figures persistently seek vengeance on those who wronged them. Each story offers a unique glimpse into the cultural beliefs surrounding ghosts and the consequences of neglecting their needs.
