Ep. 8: Morgan‘s Corner (Nuʻuanu Pali)

Note:  For best listener experience, headphones are suggested but not required. 

 

Aloha!  Happy Halloween!

For this Halloween episode, I'll be covering one of Hawaii's most well known ghost stories.  Mention "Morgan's Corner" around any Local and most likely (more like 100% likely) they'll know exactly what you're talking about.  I'll talk about the legend of Morgan's Corner along with the haunted history behind the Nuʻuanu Pali, the mountain side that the road is located on.

Lastly, let's dip into the true-crime I talk about the very real and brutal murder that happened at Morgan's corner.  So get comfortable, pop open a green bottle or two.  Spark up some paranormal pakalolo....and let's get into this....

UPDATE!!!

Just as this episode was finishing being mastered, I was able to get a PHYSICAL COPY OF "THE PICTURE" that I talk about in this episode!!!  My parents packed up some stuff from my bedroom in our old house and down in the bottom of the box was my copy of Glen Grant's book 'Obake Files:  Ghostly Encounters in Supernatural Hawaii'!  He included the color photo of what he and his students captured that night at Morgan's Corner.  

Check out my Instagram for the higher quality picture along with the screen-grab I took of Grant's 'Chick'n Skin' TV special that aired in Hawaii back in the mid 90's with the man himself (I do not own the rights to the photo).
