Night Marchers
Many years ago, my father used to go camping and fishing in remote places in Kona..
He would often come home with tales of his adventures. One night while sleeping on a bit of clearing, he said the feeling of pressure awakened him on his body.
He said he tried to waken Tadashi, his fishing buddy but Tadasi was fast asleep.
The next morning when he told his tale, some Hawaiian fishermen came by and told them they had been sleeping on the trail where the night marchers walk every night. They decided to stay up to see if they could see them, but they saw nothing. Dad never slept on that trail ever again.
GHOSTS
My dad has gotten to see ghost more often than the rest of us. He told us of the day he and Tadashi went fishing and came cross an old shack. He went to the old shack and an old woman with long white hair greeted him.. She offered him water and he thanked her. He told Tadashi and brought him over to show him but she had disappeared. Some other fishermen told dad that there used to an old Hawaiian woman living there long ago.
Interesting memories! Local tradition and history truly permeate this place, don't they" Mahalo for sharing!
