Hawaii's Most Haunted: Polihale

This secluded, undeveloped place boasts the longest stretch of beach in Hawaii. The way the blue ocean pounds against the white sand that butts up against the green and brown mountains creates a scene of incredible natural beauty. Today on Hawaii’s Most Haunted, we share with you... Polihale.

In this series, Lopaka brings you some of Hawaii's Most Haunted places.
Master storyteller, Lopaka Kapanui, brings to life the feared Nightmarchers, the goddess Pele, Menehune, e‘epa, mo‘o and more. But… Hawaiian deities and spirits aren’t the only things residing in this island paradise. Here is also where the Japanese dog demons, the inugami, are sent to ruin the lives of unsuspecting families. Here is where the Filipino vampire-like creature, the aswang, roams in search of her next victim. And here is where the Portuguese witch, the feiteceira, spins her spells and curses at her whim. Rich in culture and traditions, these islands are overflowing with stories of ghosts and hauntings, creatures and curses. Lopaka is the keeper of these stories.
Beyond the cool, blue waters and balmy trade winds of our idealistic paradise is the thin veil which separates our world from the place where shadows talk back. Spirits, Ghosts, Legends, Facts... Experience the Hawaii most don't see every day.

Drums sound exactly how it sounded with my experience with the night marchers down at Manoa falls

[@Luvyumadly]

Yes, same. Heard the same drums in Waikapu on Maui one night while camping with the family. It was 5 days before the full moon.

[@paulinehanoa1360]

I’m from ka’u on the big island. My ohana has always seen the night marchers on certain nights. We respect and stay out of their way. We are sensitive to our land and culture. Much Mahalo’s for telling our stories.

[@kawikadavid8958]

The drumming is real.

[@Sunnierayana222]

Where I grew up me and my cousins experienced nightmarchers in our family land but it was the other side of the stream which goes down to our private owned bay called puniawa

[@sissurpsippn8040]

which island? I'm from oahu and i always hear stories of nightmarchers in makaha, manoa, and mokuleia

[@Reesepieces808]

Another great story thank you 🤙🏽🌺

[@SEAQUEST-R]

Mahalo. If I remember correctly, isn't there another heaiu/platform to Laka on the other end of the Na Pali Coast (past Hanalei)?

[@myztixwenzmatta777]

My husband and I were collecting recycles from Iao valley early in the evening… it started getting dark then we heard drums… we left fast… there was a couple going in even though we warned them of the night marchers… it was pretty intense… Lived in Hawaiian homes on Maui and above it was a heiau… one night I heard drumming and chanting… Jeff said there’s no one up there but the Spirits… that was scary as well… that was the night I got bed pressed… love ❤️ this channel…

[@bsdgffishtuna5186]

plot twist: MyZtiX WenZ Matta and husband DO A LOT OF DRUGS.

[@chaleys8089]

Being from Kauai, Polihale is the only place I’ve witnessed and heard stories of like this. Polihale I believe is really haunted but by I think bad and good spirits 👻🤙

[@johntad751]

bah I sked, ready 4 fike

[@Occult_Detective]

Absolutely incredible production.

[@peppertrees]

Love the mo'olelo from Kaua'i, very ancient. Mahalo Lopaka!

[@erickim2025]

CHICKEN SKIN just listening to this mahalo

[@christopherturco197]

Really enjoyed this one. Loved learning the stories of the gods associated with the area. So surprising to learn about the unique quality of the limu pahapaha and how it can be revived even after it has been dried. A friend of mine from Kaua'i told me that if you stay over night at Polihale you can hear what sounds like babies crying, especially at the end closest to the canyon. Mahalo for sharing this.🤙

[@Kauaibanga]

Sup braddah I born and raised Kauai the babies crying is one bird🤙🏽

[@sissurpsippn8040]

This is my favorite story from u so far👍👍 just visited kauai for the first time a couple weeks ago and passed this beach while doing a boat cruise of the na pali coast. We also got to witness a missle launching while on our cruise. Kauai is such a beautiful island as I am from oahu, such a big difference

[@TitoEdwards]

Oahu is beautiful too, although I think you are attracted to the ruralness of Kauai!

[@Sunnierayana222]

Do you have any story’s of Maui uncle ?

[@sissurpsippn8040]

Is it true that nightmarchers are usually seen a couple- few nights before the full moon???

[@Luvyumadly]

When I heard them it was 5 days before the full moon

[@SirLarsOLOT]

Well done! An amazing job as always.

[@sandyfranklin1123]

Fascinating!!

[@MarkFromHawaii]

I've heard tales of either the basement at Ali'Iolani Hale or the Criminal Justice Data Center next door. I overheard a guy who said he used to work at one of the buildings and said when he was told don't go down there at night, he scoffed. He went down one evening for something and opened the door and said it was like the scene from Poltergeist with papers and folders flying around. He quickly closed the door and left, never to go down there again. But, second hand tale from someone. Have you heard something like this?

[@lonepheasant3489]

You know how people say don't f with the hip hop witch well that's nothing compared to the night marchers eversince I might of when I was a kid cuz I swear they been haunting me eversince and I don't know what to do about it

[@TitoEdwards]

I remember growing up on Kauai and about the Night Marchers. We did some ghost hunting in high school (I grew up & never will do this again), fun-kind, but we never messed around the Polihale-Mana-Barking Sands area. There are a lot of ghost stories on Kauai, I am glad I never encountered one. On another note, you have a great name, Lopaka! That is my name in English too! (Tito is a diminutive of Lopaka).

[@TitoEdwards]

One more thing, you got the pidgin down good. The accent and everything. Kauai is losing their pidgin English, whether for good or not.

[@CubDoesStuff]

Hey Mr. Kapanui, could you tell me of that spirit that called your name at Pali lookout please 🙏

[@dukekuhia2551]

Any stories in the island of maui

[@christophermckeown1995]

Around mid January to April thousands and thousands of pale figures can be spotted along the shores of Wailea, Lahaina, and Kapalua 👻

[@aalonakahawai2091]

Love these stories and the history of these places need for do more mahalo bradda

[@janefreeman995]

Yes... many experiences, night marchers yes drums at the top of wiamea canyon, indications or clear signs from nature . . . Dead calm, I park at the canyon and an acacia tree falls right behind me. I'm the only car there. You know nature has something to say! A spirit try push in my chest one night, enlivened dreams such as an elder letting me know at the moment of passing... this happened twice. I lived near a Japanese cemetary and my bed was being shaken one night .... i wasnt the only one who saw it. Mostly it felt like an invitation or initiation. Somehow I knew it was a reveal, something not to fear so much as respect. Witnessed a Kapuna at a ceremony wield the weather. This was mostly on Kauai, but most of my life has been on Hawaii Island. Just landed on Madiera today where so many of our Portuguese friends herald from.
