An elderly woman in the city of Liuzhou in Guangxi has been upsetting her neighbors recently by hanging up more than 100 mirrors on her balcony in order to deflect the evil spirits which she believes to be living in the building across from her apartment.
Back in February, the local neighborhood committee managed to get the 70-year-old auntie surnamed Zhang to remove the dozens and dozens of mirrors and amulets from her balcony, only for Zhang to put the charms back up the next month, reports The Paper. She has since refused repeated requests to take the items down while her family has declined to intervene, saying that the mirrors make her happy.
Angry about being regularly blinded by the reflected sunlight from Zhang’s balcony, residents of the building opposite have launched a counterattack, placing mirrors of their own outside their windows.
Those poor evil spirts.
