"Ghost Month" (the Seventh Month of the Chinese Lunisolar Calendar, corresponding to Sept. 6 to Oct. 6, 2025) is the time of the Ghost Festival (Yulanpen). It is observed among the Chinese diaspora population of the world, particularly in Chinatowns, Malaysia, Singapore, and anywhere Mahayana Buddhism dominates. Hungry ghosts or petas (Sanskrit pretas) are miserable being who have been reborn deprived due to unskillful karma (deeds).
If hungry ghosts, demons, and malignant spirits are living beings, and Buddhists cherish all sentient beings, how do we exorcise them when they create obstacles in our lives? Why did Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava) convert angry subhuman beings into "protectors of the Dharma" (Dharmapalas)? Why did the great Tibetan sage Milarepa have long conversations with ghosts and demons? How do can humans protect against curses and black magic? What are Buddhism’s Protective Verses (Parittas), and how do we chant them? These questions are answered in this “Buddhist Guide to Exorcism: A Spirit Handler’s Guide” and demonstrate some of the methods. More: Buddha Weekly
The Hungry Ghost Realm: A Buddhist Teaching of Hope in Addiction
(Mythos & Logos) Complete Archives: Mythos & Logos. The Realm of Hungry Ghosts (peta-loka) is a plane of existence in Buddhist cosmology, an unfortunate destination, an afterlife marked by deprivation, suffering, and dependency.
The journey of one of the Buddha's chief disciples, Maha Moggallāna (Sanskrit Maudgalyayana, Chinese Mulian), to this realm provides a first step for how to break the vicious cycle of addiction borne of trauma.
Many of us have a "hungry ghost" (peta, preta) lurking inside of us. If anyone is struggling, please reach out to a professional as there are many great organizations, including @TWLOHA, filled with people trained and willing to help.*

(NBCLA) Take a peek at Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood, an amusement park where many scary things were once filmed for the big studio system.
It's that time of year again when The Veil is thin between the worlds/dimensions and the dead mingle with the living. What we call the Halloween season is Obon in Buddhist Japan, Samhain in Celtic Ireland, and Dia de Los Muertos in Mexico and Latin America.
These ancient beliefs and customs are linked to some reality, not just make believe swept away by a colonial missionary religion that says no to heathen paganism and tries to enforce worship of its imperial deity.
Obon (お盆 [1]) or just Bon (盆 [2][a]) is a fusion of the ancient Japanese belief in ancestral spirits and a Japanese Buddhist custom to honor the spirits of one's deceased ancestors. This Buddhist custom has evolved into a family reunion holiday during which people return to ancestral family places and visit and clean their ancestors' graves when the spirits of ancestors are supposed to revisit the household altars. It has been celebrated in Japan for more than 500 years and traditionally includes a dance, known as Bon Odori. More: Obon

Weird wonderful history of Mt. Shasta: Free camping, hiking to historic Horse Camp Cabin
(Wonderhussy Adventures)
Aug. 14, 2024: Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure #818. Date of adventure: July 18, 2024. Free camping, hiking, and exploring the wonderfully weird history of California's [hollow] Mount Shasta [an ET base with a history of abductions, as studied by former Police Detective David Paulides]. It's one of the best campsites I've [Wonderhussy] ever stayed at...and some of the wildest stories of any place I've explored!
A bhoot or bhuta (Sanskrit भूत, bhūta) is a supernatural creature, a poltergeist or "noisy spirit," usually the ghost of a deceased person in the popular culture, literature, and ancient sacred texts of the Indian subcontinent [Note 1].
Buddhism recognizes the existence of "hungry ghosts" (Sanskrit pretas, Pali petas) living in the Realm of Hungry Ghosts (peta loka) alongside the human world, reborn there as a karmic result of strong attachment and lack of merit.
They can be distinguished from ordinary "ghosts" organdharvas (Pali gandhabbas) transitioning in an intermediate state yet to be reborn after a human life, as in the concept of the bardo.
Interpretations of how bhoots come into existence vary by region and community. But they are usually considered to be perturbed and restless -- ungrateful dead and shapeshifting goblins of European folklore -- due to some factor that prevents them from moving on (to the next rebirth destination).
This factor could be a violent death, unsettled matters in their lives, or simply the failure of their survivors to perform proper funeral rituals.
Cultural tradition
The belief in unseen spirits and ghosts is deeply ingrained in the minds of the people of India across generations. The various concepts of ghosts trace their roots to the vast bodies of Hindu (Vedic) mythology, its religious texts, literature, and folktales.
There are many allegedly haunted places in India, such as cremation grounds... Ghosts also occupy a significant place in Bengali culture. Various supernatural entities form an integral part of the socio-cultural beliefs of both Hindu and Muslim communities of rural Bengal.
Fairy tales often use the concept of ghost, and references to paranormal activities are found amply in modern-day Bengali literature, cinema, radio, and TV.
Etymology and idiom
Bhūta is a Sanskrit term that carries the connotations of "past" and "being" [2] and, because it has connection with "one of the most wide-spread roots in Indo-European — namely, *bheu/*bhu-," has similar-sounding cognates in virtually every branch of that language family, for example, Irish (bha), English (be [and perhaps boo]), Latvian (but), and Persian (budan) [3, 4].
Characteristics of bhoots
To be killed unfairly or with a grudge
Bhoots are shapeshifters: They are able to alter and assume forms of various humans or animals at will. But they are usually seen in human form [8]. However, their feet often reveal them to be ghosts, floating above the ground or turned backwards [9].
As the earth is regarded as sacred or semi-sacred in many traditions of the Indian subcontinent, bhoots go to lengths to avoid contact with it, often floating above it, either imperceptibly or up to a foot above [9]. Bhoots cast no shadows and speak with a nasal twang [10]. They often lurk on specific trees...
In many regions, bhoots are supposed to fear water and steel or iron objects, so keeping those nearby is believed to scare them off [13]. Iron cross on a church? The scent of burnt turmeric is also said to ward them off [10].
As is typical of ghosts throughout the world, invoking the name of holy figures and deities is also said to repel bhoots. In some regions, sprinkling earth on oneself is said to shield against bhoots [14].
According to Dharmic mythology, a soul (atman, spirit, self, consciousness) cannot be destroyed by any means. As a bhoot is just a deceased, lost, or angry soul/spirit, Hindu exorcists do not (or cannot) destroy them.
Instead, they perform a ritual according to the Atharva Veda ("Knowledge Storehouse of Everyday Life") called atma-shanti, which is just a modified Shraadh orŚrāddha (death anniversary) done by those haunted by the bhoot to promise it that everything in their power will be done to either assure the successful rebirth of the bhoot or finish the works left incomplete by the bhoot (or both).
Thus, the bhoot gets what it wants and stops troubling those haunted by it forever [15].
Bhutas
These poltergeists or restless ghosts of the departed are thought to be the spirits of defied heroes. They are fierce and evil spirits of Hindu deities and of animals, and so on. They are wrongly referred to as "ghosts" or "demons" when, in fact, they are often protective and benevolent beings.
Though it is true that they can cause harm in their violent forms, as they are extremely powerful, they can be pacified through worship or offerings referred to as Bhuta Aradhana [16]. [The same seems to be true of related hybrid-human ogres known asyakshas andrakshasas].More

Are supernatural djinn reclaiming Earth?
DarkElementFilms.com With reports of nightly visitations and assaults by shadow people on the rise, who, or what could be behind these strange and sometimes terrifying supernatural encounters?
There are researchers and scholars today who believe that a faction of the supernatural race known as the Djinn are responsible. It is also believed that this evil faction is motivated by revenge and that they are seeking to restore their dominance over the Earth.
History of the djinn
The Arabic word jinn, Romanized as djinn, comes from the verb janna, which means "to hide or conceal." The djinn are intelligent spirits with a sordid history of uprising, banishment, and demonic behavior.
Djinn stories emerged in early Arab culture later adopted into Islamic theology. Also known as genies, the djinn are a lower rank of angels that can appear in humanoid, shadow, and animal forms. They can also possess humans.
Djinn were without original physical form. They were spiritual beings made from a scorching, smokeless fire that in today's terms would probably be described as a type of plasma. It is said that djinn are masterful shapeshifters, with the ability to choose any form they like. In Islamic belief, djinn are often associated with the forms of human-shaped shadows, snakes, or dogs.More
Don't expose me to sonic repellents. I don't even know why I'm still her after I died!
A company in Buddhist Thailand claims to have designed a device which will drive unwanted ghosts out of a person's home. Dubbed the "Trisaksri Ghost Repellent," the odd, box-shaped instrument looks more like a subwoofer rather than something devised to ward off supernatural creatures. However, the company behind the machine says that's exactly what it does... More
Ghost Repellent: New Device Allegedly Blasts Unwanted Paranormal Entities
There is no shortage of fascinating ghost hunting technology on the market today.
Whether you’re looking to see invisible spirits, hear their voices, or even communicate with them, there’s a good chance that some mad scientist out there has a gadget that claims to help you do just that.
But for those who are less interested in communicating with spirits as much as banishing them, they’re usually stuck doing things the old fashioned way with holy water or sage.
What's inside the $1,500.00 box?
Well, the days of relying on a biological exorcist are over. A new device claims it will blast the phantoms from your home with “Wave Killer” technology.
The Thai company Super Boondee has released a brand new version of the Trisaksri Ghost Repellent, a device with a design straight out of Ghostbusters, which the company claims will rid your residence of unwanted spirits thanks to its specially-designed circuitry.
Demons don't like human good times
So how does it work? Well, when you’re ready to clear your home of negative entities, you simply flip the switch on the ghost repellent box, which activates a low-level electromagnetic field, condenser microphone, and infrared camera that work in unison to detect paranormal activity.
Super Boondee calls this the “phenomenon receptor [detector].” When the machine detects an anomaly, it automatically fires off a “Wave Killer” radio blast that they claim is enough to force the nasty phantom to abandon its chosen haunt.
Much like those sonic-rodent repellents, the box will simply continue to drive off ghosts no matter how many times they attempt to return. More
If "The Exorcist" is real -- and it is, after all, based on a true story the author William Peter Blatty heard about when he was studying at Georgetown University -- doesn't that mean there are demons, devils, rakshasas, asuras, pretas, narakas?
There may not ultimately speaking be a self, but there is this ever-changing heap of Five Aggregates. That's the "soul," the psyche, the spirit, the gandharva (Pali gandabba). It is not what we think, but it is not nothing either.
There are -- apart from form or our bodies -- feelings, perceptions, mental formations, and consciousness which we cling to as "self," as our abiding identity, as our core ego.
And that amalgamation or composite self can become "possessed," taken over by powerful and negative forces. There are spiritual rules for this, freewill, and the bad spirits have to be invited in, but they trick their way in.
Bon shamans, lamas: demon dance
Then monastics or shamans or priests need to be brought in to release an individual from their grip and influence of nonhuman individuals. That's scary.
We are not ourselves, but even the impersonal self we cling to -- which feels like it is me and mine -- can be lost to others. Theravada monks will chant parittas or protective chants, and Vajrayana lamas will do rituals and ceremonies influenced by Bon shamanism and black magic of Tibet, Bhutan, and Nepal. Mongolian shamans may have to be brought in.
Whether it's all psychological or much more, who can know? The victims and those around them feel it's objectively real for the paranormal phenomena that happens around the possessed. Something's happening. And something happened to a child in the U.S. that led to this film being made. There is a supernatural (which is actually just natural in Buddhism) world and we remain blind to it most of the time.
Newly discovered behind-the-scenes footage!
(Behind The Exorcist) This is a compilation of newly surfaced behind-the-scenes footage from "The Exorcist."
It features never-before-seen superimposition tests and outtake footage revealing Jason Miller's infamous reaction to being shot in the face with a concoction of Andersen's pea soup and oatmeal.
Hollywood's Linda Blair, Regan, The Exorcist
Also included are different takes of child actress Linda Blair ("Regan") filming the projectile vomiting scene, which was originally screen tested and shot with actress Eileen Dietz as the apparatus created by make-up artist Dick Smith was too uncomfortable for Blair.
Upon reviewing the dailies, director William Friedkin decided he was not satisfied with the "spray" effect Smith's apparatus achieved, so he re-shot the scene with Blair miming the actions. A thicker stream of vomit was then superimposed over the shot and remains one of the few optical effects in the film.
Regan's bedroom is also noticeably different to how it appears in the film. Friedkin was unimpressed by original production designer John Robert Lloyd's work, so he quickly replaced him with Bill Malley, who opted for a more monochromatic look.
Why is this movie so scary?
(Behind The Exorcist) "The Exorcist" - Based on a true story of an American boy who was possessed by inimical spirits, Ellen Burstyn reflects on why the film is still scary. Oscar-winning actress Ellen Burstyn chats with the Hudson Union Society on the making of The Exorcist and why it's still scary after 40-odd years. She mentions her spiritual/meditation practice and how she was warned about the danger of what she was depicting and how police, in particular the very racist LAPD, were in the habit of killing unarmed black men even then.
Beyond comprehension: Forty years after William Peter Blatty's novel was published, The Exorcist's author returns to where it all began (Tania Gomez).

Hey, guys, it's getting too hot!!
Jo Kwon visited a warehouse in Boyle Heights (East Los Angeles) that
has been converted to give people a spook, but it's no ordinary haunted
house. They say the Titanic-style Queen Mary is haunted. So it was incredibly amusing to watch Jo Kwon try not to freak out as she toured the #Evil8 Queen Mary Dark Harbor. Check out Kwon's other adventures at other haunted houses located around town: Here's her full Tension Ascension Experience! Watch her try not to throw up as she waits for the Men in Black to come for her. The best has been saved for last, Kwon's final freakout at the 17th Door Haunted House.More

Happy Halloween. It's time to thumb through the Petavatthu to scare ourselves with Ghost Stories or Tales of the Departed, a collection of sacred Buddhist texts like the UFOs of the Sky Dwellers.
There is much that happens in the unseen world that affects the world we know and contact with our ordinary five senses (which are actually greater in number as science well knows but which is rarely mentioned, such as proprioceptive feedback) and the most important, the sixth or cognition, with "mind" as the sense organ.
Anyone who cultivates the third eyeordibba cakkhu (at the agni chakra and other paranormal powers) can see for him or herself that there are many unseen beings around suppressing our full human potential.
It is as if we are being "farmed" or "mined" for our strong emotions, sexual energies, wasted psychic emanations, and genetic material, which is combined with that of other beings' by artificial insemination to produce hybrids.
But Americans -- claiming to be reasonable, scientific, experiential and experimental, taking a "I'll believe it when I see it" attitude -- refuse to open their third eye or increase their sensitivity to energy.
Instead, we do all we can to deaden our senses, inebriate our minds, and corrupt our spirits.
Just yoga poses, a humane-natural diet, and pranayama (gaining control of the subtle breath) would do much to bring us into our potential for compassion, wisdom, and enlightenment at least to get us into a fortunate rebirth if we ignore bringing a complete end to rebirth all suffering.
