Summary: Comment on the research done for this story
Review: The author has clearly done his work or he himself has known about this Chinese festivals long ago. I'm a Chinese and found that there are some parts of the story about the Hungry Ghosts Festival quite true but some far from reality. the Hungry Ghosts Festival is not about the dead coming back to take revenge. Instead the dead just rises and comes back to recieve their loved ones. Actually it's just a festival celebrated and prepared by us, the Chinese. Not really as scary as in the book.
