Ep. 19: Cursed Pohaku (Rocks)

Aloha Ghostlorians!

Welcome to Ghostlore of Hawaii:  Paranormal Paradise!  I am your host Jared, thank you for joining me for the beach bonfire! 

In episode 3:  'Pele's Curse', I covered the misfortune that falls on those who dare take lava rocks away from Hawaii.  Tonight,  I'll be discussing a few stories that show; rocks don't always have to leave the islands for bad luck to be unleashed.  

I'll wrap up the episode with the tale of a family who experienced a haunting soon after moving into their new home and how it may have been triggered by the simple act of moving a stone found in the garden.  Based on a real, listener submited story.

Crack open a green bottle, spark up some paranormal pakalolo, and let's get into this....

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