Graveyard folklore

You would expect graveyards to be full of ghosts. However, this is not the case!

There is a tradition that only the spirit of the first person to be buried there is destined to haunt the place. Legend claims it has to protect the graves of all those who are buried after them. 

It is also said that flowers will grow on a grave if the person led a good life. Weeds growing on a grave point to the person being wicked in life. 

It is supposed to be bad luck to meet a funeral procession heading towards you. If this can't be avoided then hold onto a button until it passes and that should prevent any bad luck coming your way. A funeral procession should never return from the graveyard the same way it came. This is to prevent the spirit of the deceased from following the living home.

We might be telling ourselves that there are so many unnecessary beliefs that were taught to us, especially when we were kids! Most of the beliefs that we practice are in accordance with death. Well, there are uncertainties wherein we need to do something though we are completely clueless why we are doing it. If we are going to think of it, we won’t lose something if we will try to follow some beliefs being fed to us by some people. We never know, we might get something from it.
