Full moons and Halloween conjure up all kinds of thoughts and fears but for many it is a time for fancy dress and parties. Thailand’s monthly full moon party on the island of Koh Pha-Ngan is legendary, if a little wild.

Halloween only occurs once each year whereas there are 12 full moons each year, one each month. However, some years have 13 full moons and one of these is called the Blue Moon. And, about every 19 years there is no full moon in February and this is known as the black moon.
