Red face The ghost of the Mokihana dorm

This by far has to be the most popular of the campus ghosts. A young man committed suicide by hanging himself in the closet in the early 1980's. But this was not your average "commit suicide and roam the halls of your old dorm" story. Since the tragedy, a kanashibari, or choking ghost, had been visiting the occupants of the room. There have been instances where the room's occupants have reported a choking sensation as they slept at night.

Enough was enough. Resident advisors enlisted the aid of Dr. Glen Grant, one of Hawaii's best ghost hunters (who also happens to be my summer school professor!) who brought in a psychic from New Zealand. The spirit haunting Mokihana supposedly entered the body of the psychic and proceeded to tell those in attendance why he chose to do what he did. An exorcism of the room was performed, but the spirit said that he'd be back to visit from time to time.

This was my old dorm freshman year. Though I didn't live on that floor, it stil it kinda scary knowing that all of this took place under your roof!
