Halloween Idea

1&2 šŸ‘»

After reading many websites and materials about Halloween, I learned that it is a festival related to the dead, disguise, and driving away evil spirits. I started to think — can I mix Chinese traditional culture with it?

So, I thought of a famous pair of underworld gods from Chinese mythology — Heibai Wuchang (Black and White Impermanence). They are ghost catchers who help the King of Hell punish evil and reward good.

White Impermanence is said to be a hanged ghost, with a long tongue, a tall white hat on his head, and handcuffs in his hand.

Black Impermanence has a fierce face, a yellow talisman on his forehead, a tall black hat, and chains around his neck.

For many people in China, the first image of Halloween comes from pop culture and store dĆ©cor: the ā€œevil pumpkin faceā€ā€”a jack-o’-lantern with triangular eyes and a jagged grin.

  1. Hey Cris, we’ve seen a thousand pumpkin heads but the Chinese spirits are super novel here in NYC! If you chose the white one, you could put lights inside the hat, such as your neopixel stick.
