Wedding Vows

Wan Ho waits outside the Courthouse of the Dead for...something. Around him, the parade of the formerly living pass into and out of the courthouse, the judge sending them to either one of the various Hells or to the city of the dead to await rebirth. While Wan Ho...waits. Until a stranger approaches and announces that she has come to marry him. A dead man... "Wedding Vows" takes the Chinese tradition of "ghost marriage" to a delightful conclusion. Previously printed in the anthology, "The Death of All Things."
