鬼魂崇拜 guǐ​hún​chóng​bài
animism
One of the earliest forms of religion, originating in early primitive societies; the belief that spirits of the deceased continue to exist and can protect, help, or punish the living members of their tribe. This belief led to various taboos and burial rituals, eventually evolving into religious concepts of hell and the underworld.
