#catholic?

Our friend in the room with us who meets all of this criteria started eyeing the exit

There had been a LOT of death near our street this past week and a lot of old folk had been staying up until midnight then chanting prayers to ward off death.it's scheduled to go on for a week until all the death stops here.so my question is,do other countries even do this? Chanting in the middle of the night wearing black hoods?
