Lively Halloween: When Halloween meets Chinese ghosts and godsThe annual Halloween arrives as scheduled, this festival that originated in the West has gained its place in China with the passage of time. Originally, Halloween was a strategy used by Westerners to avoid ghosts infiltrating the world, and they dressed up as various ghosts with the intention of living in harmony with real ghosts and ghosts. Over time, Halloween has taken on a new meaning in the wave of commerce, and on the eve of October 31, merchants hold various celebrations to set the holiday spirit.
China, a country with a long history, has 5,000 years of splendid culture and countless myths. When the breath of Halloween blows across the land of China, the Chinese are not willing to lag behind and inject new life into this festival with their rich traditional culture. As a result, traditional images of ghosts and gods such as black and white impermanence and Western Heaven Rulai, as well as characters such as Tang Seng and the crew of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" in pop culture, all appeared in the Halloween celebration in the form of cosplay.
Shanghai's Halloween celebration became famous because of the out-of-the-circle cosplay, and even rushed to the hot search. Some people dressed up as game characters, such as Li Bai or King Lanling, attracted the amazement of netizens. And the characters in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" seem to have walked out of the screen, and characters such as Concubine Hua, the emperor, and An Lingrong have appeared one after another, making people feel as if they have traveled back to the treacherous harem.
There are also cosplay performers who play the stars, and the realism of the imitation is amazing. Xiang Tai and her son Xiang Zuo's stalk, Na Ying's imitator and Faye Wong's "Meet 98" performance, and Li Jiaqi's imitator answering the audience's questions, the restoration of these details not only makes people smile, but also a wonderful presentation of real culture.
Of course, there are also some cosplays that show a "state of mind", allowing the audience to have a deeper reflection on the hard work of daily life, such as those who play migrant workers and mothers, and the life philosophy they convey through interpretation is also empathetic.
The festival goes beyond the traditional meaning of Halloween, and the Chinese boldly incorporate their own ghost and god culture into it, as if bringing the ritual of the Midyear Festival into modern society. And this cultural integration and innovation has made Halloween glow with new vitality in China.
After a busy day, viewers can't help but smile and find relaxation and pleasure in watching these creative and humorous videos. And this is where this Halloween event was successful.
In such a festival full of magic and reality, we see the exchange and integration of cultures. It is not only a Western festival, but also a Chinese holiday
