Kauai HI
So I'm trying to find a place to live on Kauai and my dad has these 2 rental houses. Super cheap rent (about $500 less than the nearest comparable house) only one catch. They are freakin haunted. Almost every tenant except the current ones have said they've seen ghosts. Not just ghosts, HAWAIIAN ghosts. The houses are right on a natural path into a valley and my dad has found a lot of Hawaiian stone artifacts around the houses.

So... should I live there? The current tenants haven't seen anything the last sighting was around 10 years ago (though the current tenants may see stuff and just not say anything because they don't want to move cause its so cheap).

I guess I can always set up a 24/7 web cam and broadcast video from a haunted house.

As long as they are cool uke-playing ghosts, I would say yes.

I will also place a bet that Kateri will be coming over a lot.

Well they were Hawaiian ghosts so maybe they'll enjoy the music...:confused:
 
dude, i used to live on kauai by the menehune fish pond and i saw some weird stuff. i vote ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FREAKEN MIND!:eek:
 
Hell yeah you should Rayan!

As long as there's no history of the ghosts getting nasty/violent, then there shouldn't be a problem IMHO.

I've been on a few "Ghost Hunts" around here in Florida (a couple in Hawaii too) - and caught a few things that were unexplainable, but no real concrete scientific evidence to show proof of the after life, etc. (I'm not one of those guys who believes in "orbs" - dust is too common with high intensity flashes.) So I'm still in the air regarding whether or not I'm a "True Believer" of Ghosts. :confused:

This could be your opportunity to get some proof! You could also call "Ghost Hunters" on the SciFi Channel to see if they'd come out to investigate! :rock: :rofl:
 
I guess I can tell a couple of sightings in these houses.

The front house:

A face in the closet amongst the clothes.
A woman walk through the wall then walk through the other wall with a huge gust of wind following that slammed all the doors in the house shut and shook the walls.

Back House: (where I might live)
Tenant's child suddenly started screaming in the living room, when asked what was wrong he said there was a lot of Hawaiian people in the room.
 
I voted Yes. By all means. But on the condition that you talk to a specialist on the subject and find out how you can create a nice environment for the both of you to live in. Is is not a fact that the Hawaiian people have lived with their ancestors all around them for ages? As long as you don't call in the Ghostbusters, their should be no problem.

As for music... keep it traditional perhaps?

Hell yeah - those should be some pretty easy set-ups for a few cameras or at least some digital recorders.

Here's a pic that my friend Camile took of a Tour Guide while we were in a supposedly "haunted" house in St. Augustine, FL. In that room was where a brutal murder had taken place some 50 to 60 years ago. The orb is pretty apparent in front of the Tour Guide and Camile is 100% convinced it's a 'spirit orb'. I'm not as easily swayed... I still think it's dust! :rolleyes:

Here's the house from outside... (almost castle-like huh?)

I think i'd buy it if that orb had a shadow of some sort. Isn't there a really haunted lighthouse in St. Augustine? Did you check that out?
 
i'm just cautious cause i know a couple of families where things were cool at first then people got really sick and they had to call in somebody and the spirits spoke through them. true stories cuz.:uhoh::uhoh::uhoh:
 
It's possible you won't even see them, even if there are ghosts there. I've been in the same room with people who saw ghosts but I didn't see jack. I don't see dead people! But then again, if they're Hawaiian ghosts...
 
no. the ones i mentioned happened in hawaii on kauai and oahu.

Kauai and Oahu is where I've had all my experiences too. The Oahu experiences were way scarier though. More numerous.
 
yeah. the one on oahu was with a japanese ghost(obaki). and he was REALLY pissed.
 
DUUUDE! I vote no. Don't do it. But for purposes of disclosure, I'm just super scared of ghosts and other creepy stuff. For example, last weekend, I got pulled into watching The Strangers. I watched like 5 minutes of it total (split over brief periods of several seconds at a time,) and was closing my eyes for the rest of it. And the week before that, I went up Tantalus at night (and you know all the stuff that happens/happened up there), and we drove the whole loop. I was creeped the hell out and swore that I saw a dead body on the side of the road.

But I guess if you've got huge balls and aren't afraid of ghosts (but are afraid of high rents) then I guess you should go for it. But if you're like me, don't do it. It's pretty creepy to be half asleep and dressing and see a face in your closet.
 
Being raised on Guam, and taught the legends of the island, and having family tell stories of things that go on, I say don't do it. The island's ancestors and stories seem somewhat familiar to what I've heard going on in Hawaii. It's like this, you know stuff happens there, why go? Understandably, if you stay respectful of the ancestors you shouldn't have much to worry about. But damn, one instance can just mess you up. Your call, good luck, take some pics.
