The first day of the ghost month, that is, the first day of July, is the day when private houses need to be worshipped when they open their doors. On this day, the gates of hell are closed and ghosts come to earth, so it's summer vacation. There are big sacrifices and small sacrifices. The big sacrifice is to cook a rich dish, and the small sacrifice is to simply sell fruit biscuits. It's a tribute anyway.
The second day of Ghost Month, that is, the second day of July, is the day when public places open. Enterprises, government agencies and other units worship one day later than private houses. The purpose of worship is to make this month pass safely, and don't do anything supernatural.
The 15th of Ghost Month, that is, the 15th of July, is the Mid-Autumn Festival, that is, Ghost Festival. People usually hold activities to worship ghosts. Anyone who has a new funeral will go to the new grave, but generally speaking, ghosts and wild ghosts will sacrifice in the local area. Therefore, it is a festival centered on worshipping ghosts, one of the biggest folk festivals in China, and it is also a day when the gates of hell are wide open. At this time, the yin is the heaviest, so it is best not to go to the streets that night. On this day's dark night (early morning and late night), ghosts and gods meet, and the yin is the most prosperous. Similarly, the next day, that is, July 16, sacrifices were held in public places.
The last day of Ghost Moon, that is, the day before the first day of August, is called "Guandimen". This day is the day when ghosts return to hell after a holiday. We should start from the beginning to the end. On this day, we should also make sacrifices in order to keep peace for the rest of the day.
