Hawaii’s Most Haunted Places and Subjects.
Learn about some of the most haunted places and subjects in Hawai‘i through Hawaiian legends and oral traditions, historical accounts, newspaper articles, and true personal ghost stories. Here, we have some interesting stories about some of the places we bring our guests and a few places you may not want to venture to alone.
We'll let you decide but be forewarned: Should you choose to strike out on your own, you are your own keeper. Meaning, what we note here are facts, legends, and observations, it is not a tourist’s guidebook or study manual of where to find “supernatural” occurrences. The places mentioned here, like many places in Hawai‘i, are very much like people; some will welcome you, some will not. To venture out alone is purely at your own risk.

Haunted Koloa Tree Tunnel
Headed towards the Southern shore, we take the scenic route through the famous Tree Tunnel on Maluhia Road. Aptly named, the Tree Tunnel is made up of hundreds of fragrant, century-old eucalyptus trees planted along nearly a mile of roadway whose branches seem to reach across the road creating a beautiful tunnel of shade and foliage. Many late-night travelers claim that the Tree Tunnel is haunted.
Haunted Judd Trail & Jackass Ginger Pond
Many people talk about the hauntings at Morgan's Corner but forget about the death, suicide, and murder just up the road at the original "death curve" at Judd Trail and Jackass Ginger Pond.
Haunted Morgan’s Corner
Is it an urban legend borne of the far-fetched stories shared between teenagers on a dark night somewhere in the depths of Nu‘uanu? Or is it a fact, one that still makes its presence known, even today? Perhaps the question shouldn’t be, “Is Morgan’s Corner haunted?” The better question is, “Who or what haunts Morgan’s Corner?”
Haunted Kiona‘ole Road
It lies in the shadows of the Ko’olau mountain range, a narrow road with a melancholy, and sometimes violent, history. Hawaiian newspapers as far back as 1885 have recorded tales of robberies, fires, rapes, fatal accidents, and murders on the mile and a half twisting trail from the halfway house junction to the bottom of the road where it meet Kamehameha highway.
Night Marchers, Menehune, and Ghosts at Haunted Nu‘uanu Pali
There have been numerous deaths at this precipice that marks the peak of this pathway from Nu’uanu to Windward Oahu -- from the last stand of Kalanikupule, to falling rocks, strong winds, horses losing their footing, and cars careening out of control, not to mention suicides... and murder. This area has a long and violent history. It’s not just one thing that haunts this place, it’s many.
Haunted Kalihi Uka and Wilson Tunnel
In the uplands of Kalihi, there were once sacred heiau, a spring brought forth by the god Kane, and a pair of Kupua who would watch over the valley. Some say that the destruction of those stones set the stage for the unfortunate events surrounding the building of the Wilson Tunnel.
Downtown Honolulu - Haunted Loku
Ghosts are said to congregate in these places every evening from seven o’clock until midnight for a form of entertainment, including the legendary night marchers. Several people who happen to work in these locations today say that their buildings are indeed haunted. While most of Downtown Honolulu closes by 6 or 7pm, nights they have to work late are especially creepy.
