Hunting corpses in Xiangxi was a traditional custom of the Miao people in Xiangxi. According to the relevant literature, the corpse herder would use a slender bamboo pole to pass through the armpit of the corpse, tie his arm to the bamboo pole, and then carry the bamboo pole. This way of walking made the corpse look like it was standing upright at night, with its hands raised flat as if it was jumping. The corpse herder would use a complete set of magic tools, such as the Soul-summoning Banner, Soul-sucking Bell, Soul-luring Gong, and Corpse-herding Whip. They would chant incantations, use divine sand, and other steps to carry out the corpse herding operation. The corpse transporter would bring the corpse back to their homeland from their hometown. This was the process of corpse transportation in Xiangxi. However, there was no scientific verification or conclusive evidence regarding the origin and specific principles of corpse herding.
People who dared not die of illness, people who committed suicide, and people who were killed by lightning in Xiangxi. According to the description in document 1, these three types of people were considered to be the " three unherds ", and the corpse transporter basically did not pick up the corpses of these people. The souls of those who died of illness had been taken away by the King of Hell and could not be recalled. The souls of those who committed suicide were replaced and taken away. Those who were killed by lightning were considered sinful people, and their corpses were usually incomplete.
There were a few specific methods to chase corpses. The first method was to use bamboo poles to connect the corpses together, and then the corpse herders would carry the corpses in front and back, and the corpses in the middle could be moved. The bamboo pole was inside the sleeve, and the corpse's arm was tied to the bamboo pole. The other method was to cut off the head and limbs of the corpse and put them on a special shelf to carry. The corpse herder and the corpse were wearing the same clothes. During the process of transporting the corpses, the main family would prepare the route in advance and inform the local villagers, so no one knew the actual transportation process. Corpse herders usually wore green robes and hats, held copper gongs, and hid a bag of talismans in their waist pouches. The corpse herder led the way in front of the corpses, striking the small Yin Gong in his hand while shaking the Soul-sucking Bell to make the Night Walkers avoid him and inform the people with dogs to lock them up. During the process of driving the corpse, Old Si would chant a spell beside the corpse and treat the corpse with medicine. Then, the corpse would stand up and follow Old Si on the way home. If there were too many corpses, Old Si would use ropes to connect the corpses so that he could control the direction and speed of the corpses. The ability of a corpse transporter was divided into three levels, from carrying a corpse on his back to letting the dead walk to their destination. Corpse transporter was a profession. Before transporting corpses, they would ask someone to write the information of the deceased on a yellow paper and stick it on themselves. The corpse transporter traveled at night, and the corpse had to arrive at the " corpse inn " before dawn and then leave at night. Corpse chasing was a folk custom in Xiangxi and a part of witchcraft.

Xiangxi Corpse Hunters used specific drugs to treat the corpses to slow down the decay process and soften the joints to facilitate movement. During the corpse transportation process, the corpse transporter needed to use four bamboo poles to fix the limbs of the corpse and straighten the arms of the corpse to form the image of a zombie. The corpse transporter needed the cooperation of a team. One of the disciples would scout ahead, and the other two disciples would be responsible for carrying the corpse. By shaking the corpse, they would make it walk like a zombie. The corpse transporter would shake the Soul-sucking Bell and hit the gong while walking to avoid scaring the passers-by and guiding the Night Walkers away. Corpse herding was usually carried out at night to increase the sense of mystery. In general, Xiangxi Corpse Catcher used specific techniques and teamwork to move the corpses.
Well, the magic system in Harry Potter is based on a magical world that has co - existed with the non - magical world for a long time. It has a Ministry of Magic to regulate it, and there are specific schools like Hogwarts to teach magic. In Corpse Party, the 'magic' if we can call it that, is more of a dark and mysterious force that causes harm and chaos. In fanfiction that combines the two, the magic from Harry Potter may be seen as a way to combat or at least understand the dark and often illogical magic in Corpse Party. For example, a simple spell like Lumos from Harry Potter might be used in an attempt to illuminate the dark and terrifying corridors of the Corpse Party setting, but it might not work as expected because the rules of the two 'magical' worlds are so different.
