Prepare to get chicken skin once again—or for the very first time—as you read the 45 stories representing the best of the 7-volume Hawaiʻi's Best Spooky Tales series. Written by authors of all ages, ethnicities, and occupations, these stories of encounters with the otherworldly in Hawai‘i are remarkably varied, surprising, and compelling. The goddess Pele makes an appearance, of course, but so do departed relatives, Pearl Harbor sailors, and the late Israel Kamakawiwoʻle. At hula performances, on golf courses, in cemeteries, or in living rooms, inexplicable things happen to believers and nonbelievers alike.
