That's what it does, unless you break it by doing unnecessary things in
your error_page directive.

  error_page 400 = /bad_request.html;

What do you think the "=" means?

What does the documentation say that the "="
means? (http://nginx.org/r/error_page)

Can you think of a way of rephrasing the documentation so that it would
have been clearer to you, so that the next person will not have the
same problem?

What happens when you leave out the "=" and reload the config?

It is what you have configured nginx to do, so yes.

Configure it according to the "common" examples in the documentation,
not according to the special-case examples.

Good luck with it,
