Ghostlore of Hawaii: Paranormal Paradise

Note:  For the best audio experience, headphones are suggested but not required.
Aloha Ghostlorians!
 
Thank you so much for your patience while I've been working on Season 3 as I've dealt with some pretty rough stuff in my personal life (womp womp lol) and I apologize for the delay!  But now we're back in business!  The theme for tonight's  episode was one I've been wanting to cover ever since season 1, so I'm excited to finally be able to share it with you all!  The topic:  The Giants of Old Hawaii.
 
Legends of Giants have been part of Hawaiian folklore for centuries.  In this Season 3 premiere, I'll be discussing several of the giant-themed stories I found that were based in Hawaii, along with a few tales from around the world that share eerily similar details.  Later in the episode, I'll dive into a discovery found at a construction site on Hawaii Island that may change how we view Hawaiian mythology, while also bringing up the question; were Hawaii's giants actually part of Hawaiian history? 
 
So crack open a green bottle, spark up some paranormal pakalolo.... and let's get into this!

Aloha,
On August 8, 2023, a wildfire ravaged Lāhainā on the island of Maui destroying an estimated 85% of the beachfront town, altering Hawaii's history forever.  My father's side of the family has lived in Lāhainā for over a century, with the small town serving as a second home to my sister and I growing up, so of course we were beyond heartbroken.  Long before this tragedy, in the fall of 2022, a writer from Honolulu Magazine (www.honolulumagazine.com) reached out asking if I'd like to submit a story for an article they were doing for Halloween.  That story turned into this episode with additional information not covered in the magazine piece. (https://www.honolulumagazine.com/locals-share-firsthand-spine-chilling-ghost-stories-just-in-time-for-halloween/)
This incident was something an ex-girlfriend and I experienced while visiting my grandparent's home on famed Front Street and was intended to be a Patreon exclusive episode.  However, after news of the fire, I went back and updated the ending to include how the fire has impacted my family personally and to add a short disclaimer.  After zero contact for over 24hrs, we finally learned my grandma and other family members were confirmed to be safe after being forced to evacuate twice.  Tragically this was not the case for many other residents.  Whatever you may hear on the news I can assure you it is much, much worse.  It is still too early to know the total destruction or even an accurate number of missing or deceased and will take years to fully understand the outcome of these fires with the clean-up and rebuilding of historic Lāhainā taking even longer.   I decided to release the episode to all listeners to include resources on how to help the Island's residents.
Maui needs more assistance than ever, please check the show notes for additional ways to help.  Mahalo.

P.S. 
I've been overwhelmed with the immense amount of listeners who've reached out asking how to help or if my family has a GoFundMe to support.  At the moment, my family is OK financially and do not want to take away from others who may require that same support, but want to thank everyone for their kindness and well wishes.

Aloha!  Thank you for joining me in the last episode of Season 2 of the Ghostlore of Hawaii:  Paranormal Paradise podcast!  I cannot believe we're already wrapping up Season 2!  I appreciate your patience over these last couple of weeks.  My computer decided to "kick-the-bucket" (RIP old friend) before I could complete the intended episode finale.  After much debate (and understanding by the awesome Patreon Members), I decided to release this story, which was an exclusive episode for Patrons (www.patreon.com/ghostloreofhawaii), to wrap up the season so you listeners wouldn't be left hanging.  The podcast will now go on a short break until Season 3, but don't worry, it won't be long before we're all huddled around the bonfire once again!
If you fear the thought of Ghostlore of Hawaii withdrawals (lol) you want more content, I will continue to release bonus and mini-episodes all throughout the break.  To find out more or to become a member, head over to:  www.patreon.com/ghostloreofhawaii
So enough of the business talk....
Versions of this tale have circulated for years.  One popular depiction was told in author Glen Grant's TV special 'Chick'n Skin:  Tales of Supernatural Hawaii' that came out in the mid-90's.  Ever since seeing that interpretation as a child, the images of the story have stuck with me to this day.  As the victim in my version discovers, "new beginnings" can always be haunted by tragic pasts...

Aloha!  Thank you for joining me on the Ghostlore of Hawaii:  Paranormal Paradise Podcast where the green bottles are always chilled, the j**nts always filled, and the host is always thrilled! (Please don't leave... I won't do that again...)  I am your host as always, Jared! 
Tonight we'll be venturing off course a bit from our normal ghost stories; but don't worry, the topic still very paranormal.  This episode covers the UFO/UAP sightings that have been witnessed in Hawaii since back in the 1970's that still continue to this day.  In 2020, several videos of unidentified objects flying over the Islands made national headlines, with more and more sightings happening every year.  I'll cover many of these popular incidents as well as a couple of firsthand experiences witnessed by people I know.  
So sit back, put on your tinfoil hats, and let's get into this.....

Aloha!  Welcome back to the Ghostlore of Hawaii Podcast!  I am your host as always, Jared!
Tonight's episode has been one of the most requested topics since I started the podcast; the Hauntings at the old Hilo Memorial Hospital.  For decades locals in the Hilo area have talked of one tragic event that ignited the stories that surround the abandoned building.  Sounds of crying babies, footsteps, disembodied laughter and more have all been witnessed onsite.  But did the tragedy really happen, or was it all just a rumor?  Along with discussing the history of the hospital, I'll cover the strange encounters that happened during a paranormal investigation conducted by the Kahuna Research Group back in 2013.  Lastly, you'll hear several firsthand stories from locals as well as from staff who still worked in the building long after the hospital closed.  Stay tuned...

Aloha!  Welcome back to the Ghostlore of Hawaii Podcast!
Tonight we venture away from The Islands for a bit; but don't worry, this story is still connected to Hawaii....through me!
That's right, in this episode I'll be discussing a very interesting time in my life; when I moved into my very first apartment....that just so happened to be haunted.  During my sophomore year in college, strange occurrences began happening shortly after moving into this specific apartment unit.  Throughout that one year period, myself and several other people witnessed weird events that happened in that building.  This was around the time sections of the story 'The Haunting at the UH Mānoa pt 3' was based on, so was in touch with an acquaintance who was sensitive to the paranormal.  I reached out hoping she could shed some light on the source of the occurrences.  The information she gave my roommate and I did little to ease our concerns.... 
So sit back next to the fire, pop open a green bottle (or two), spark up your paranormal pakalolo (or not), and let's get into this.....

After many requests, tonight's episode jumps back into the true-crime genre as I cover several of Hawaii's Unsolved Mysteries.  First, I'll discuss one of Hawaii's first confirmed serial Killers, the Honolulu Strangler.  Then, I'll cover the popular disappearance of a small fishing vessel, the Sarah Joe and it's 5 experienced crew members, and why this story still baffles resident til this day.  Lastly, I'll touch on a gruesome discovery one woman made while dumpster diving that changed her life forever.

Aloha, nice to see you back so soon!  As a little surprise, I decided to release part 2 of 'The Lady and the Horse' earlier than planned.  Instead of waiting an entire week for the conclusion, you get it on a Monday!  So make sure you're caught up and have listened to Ep. 19:  'The Lady and the Horse (Pt. 1) first!
In the last episode, we left off with Uncle Billy sharing the mysterious story of his one true love, Eloise.  The teens quickly fell in love after meeting and planned to spend the rest of their lives together.  Until the day Eloise went missing after suffering a tragic accident with her horse Tucker.  Billy was able to find his injured love; bleeding and barely conscious, but was still able to get Eloise back to her family.

Aloha!  Welcome back to the Ghostlore of Hawaii Podcast!
I am your host, Jared!  A cool breeze blowing in from the ocean for our virtual beach bonfire; perfect for a chilling tale based on real events.
Tonight's episode is part-one of a two-part story that happened to someone from my past.  It's has a little bit of everything; mysterious apparitions, animals, multiple timelines, all interwoven into a tragic love-story.

Aloha Ghostlorians!
Welcome to Ghostlore of Hawaii:  Paranormal Paradise!  I am your host Jared, thank you for joining me for the beach bonfire! 
In episode 3:  'Pele's Curse', I covered the misfortune that falls on those who dare take lava rocks away from Hawaii.  Tonight,  I'll be discussing a few stories that show; rocks don't always have to leave the islands for bad luck to be unleashed.  
I'll wrap up the episode with the tale of a family who experienced a haunting soon after moving into their new home and how it may have been triggered by the simple act of moving a stone found in the garden.  Based on a real, listener submited story.
Crack open a green bottle, spark up some paranormal pakalolo, and let's get into this....
