"Many people who live outside the island state don’t realize that, like anywhere else, many places in Hawai‘i are very haunted, perhaps more so. Local residents seem to take Hawaii’s hauntings as a part of everyday life. Lopaka Kapanui is Hawaii’s “Ghost Guy” who collects and shares the ghost stories of Hawai‘i. Na Mo‘olelo Lapu is a collection of ghost stories from different people who have lived in Hawai‘i long enough to have experienced their own hauntings personally. From an old woman who longs for her lost child and a Royal Princess who has been known to make a ghostly appearance, to an old Hawaiian man in a former hospital and a regal man who died in a tragic accident, Kapanui shares a myriad of stories of the ghosts of different cultures who all lived, and died, in Hawai‘i. Some of the tales are the author’s own experiences while others have been shared by those who were haunted. All of them are true as told by everyday people."--P. [4] of cover.
