OK, what does a book about Chinese food have to do with ghost tales? Well, it is believed that those who die without a good last meal come back to seek revenge! I need to warn you that this book does get a bit gory but if you don't mind a little bit of blood and guts, you may just find that this book is right up your alley.  But the recipes included may not look to appetizing after reading the tales!  Don't say I didn't warn you.
