Why is the Zhongyuan Festival the Ghost Festival?

The Zhongyuan Festival or Yulan Festival was mentioned in books such as "Family Instructions of Yan" in the Northern Qi Dynasty, "Jingchu Sui Shi Ji" in the Southern Dynasties, "Dongjing Menghualu" and "Menglianglu" in the Song Dynasty, and "Dijing Sui Shi Ji Sheng" in the Qing Dynasty.
According to the "Records of Cultivation", "On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, the Earth God descends to determine the good and evil deeds of the world. Taoists recite sutras that night, and prisoners on the Hungry Festival are freed."
The 15th day of the seventh month, which is referred to by the term "Zhongyuan Festival", is actually the "Day of Pardon for Sins in the Underground Palace". In folk beliefs, the ghosts worshipped on this day are not only ancestors and relatives, but also lonely ghosts.
Legend has it that during the Ghost Festival, all ghosts are released from the underworld, and people generally hold activities to worship ghosts.
Families that have recently lost a loved one must visit the new grave, and usually offer sacrifices to lonely ghosts in the local area. If you stay in the wilderness, you will see the strange spectacle of hundreds of ghosts parading at night, so it is called Ghost Festival. It is not advisable to go out on this night.
