Halloween Presentation: Myths and Monsters

Celebrate spooky season with a fun presentation about China’s monsters, ghosts, demons and other supernatural creatures! China has a festival that has some similarities to Halloween, the Ghost Festival which falls in August. But we thought this presentation would be a great one to have at Halloween!

Join Cultural Keys online on October 30th for a fascinating presentation on the supernatural creatures from Chinese religion and folk tales.

Presentation Content

1. Ghosts and demons: including the famous Chinese zombies and lesser-known demons like the painted demon who wears human skins – ugh!
2. Monsters: Some of the weird creatures in Chinese stories, from a monster with eyes in its armpits to a headless giant. 
3. Protection: Ways in which the ancient Chinese (and you too, if you’re superstitious!) protected themselves from all these nasty things!
4. The Ghost Festival: Learn about the festival where the dead roam the earth for an entire month.

CK Culture Presentations are perfect entry points for anyone who wants to learn more about Chinese culture through stories, humour and fascinating facts – great for those with no previous knowledge, but also interesting for those who already know something about the subject. We call our presentations ‘interactive’ because we hope that participants will join in with questions and their own experiences!

They are presented by native-English speakers in a clear and accessible way, and all participants are sent a copy of the presentation at the end of each event, together with the audio recording, so you can listen again at your convenience. So even if you can’t make it to the live presentation, you won’t miss out!

Members of our WeChat group get a discount on all our presentations, and other events too! We also post regular culture news and discussions to the group. If you’d like to join, please scan the ‘more info’ QR code on the poster.
