webfact Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Gates of Hell open early in Phuket Eakkapop Thongtub PHUKET: -- A Phuket man claims the Gates of Hell opened in Phuket last night ahead of the Hungry Ghost Festival, also known on the island as the “Por Tor Festival”. However, he might have been a tad premature. Warin Nakchainaramit, 39, a Phuket native and a Phuket Vegetarian Festival volunteer at Bang Niew Shine in Phuket Town, today (Aug 21) announced, “Last night the Gates of Hell opened in Phuket. They opened at 11pm for the Hungry Ghost Festival.” Under the Thai lunar calendar, still used for observing traditional and religious events in Thailand, Mr Warin would be right as the Hungry Ghost Festival usually begins on the 30th day of the sixth lunar month of the year.
