"09 AUGUST 2014 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Children play on fitness equipment while they wait for a free meal for Ghost Month at the Ruby Goddess Shrine in the Dusit section of Bangkok. The seventh month of the Chinese Lunar calendar is called ""Ghost Month"" during which ghosts and spirits, including those of the deceased ancestors, come out from the lower realm. It is common for Chinese people to make merit during the month by burning ""hell money"" and presenting food to the ghosts. At Chinese temples in Thailand, it is also customary to give food to the poorer people in the community.        PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ"
