to be precise it's usually a deceased man that didn't have a woman and getting married to a woman that's killed (with her consent of sorts) during the wedding so they can be together in the afterlife. and that's basically the reason why those ghost marriages aren't legal in most cases.
What you saying is not the "Ghost marriage" meaning here. It's usually a man, with a deceased girl who dead in a accident. The girl's parents would not like their daughter to be alone and to keep their lineage(symbolically). Some cases both are deceased. For example, a couple dead in a car accident, and both their parents might hold a wedding for them, and hope them could be together in the other world or afterlife. Please find the definition "Chinese ghost marriage" on wiki then you'll know more details.
i don't need a wiki for that, i got chinese neighbours that explained that garbage tradition once because they were upset that it was against the law to hold a suicidal "marriage" here in the civilised world and they had to travel back to china for that ceremony >_<
Hmmm....I'm from Taiwan and here we did have the ghost marriage tradition as I mentioned above. (The game developer is also from Taiwan.) It might be supernatural and weird, but not cruel and savage. However, our tradition is quite different than theirs that your neighbors mentioned. : /
Let them be bro, you're being a typical American rn. Always thinking they have the moral high ground, you can't even differentiate who's women and who's male. Shut up.
