Night Marchers at Lumaha‘i
Night Marchers at Lumaha‘i
Located on the North Shore of Kaua‘i, Lumaha‘i is said to be a place where the legendary night marchers travel. The beach there is known for its picturesque beauty and its dangerous rip tides. But that’s not all.
In 1940, journalist George Mellen interviewed Wainiha resident Moses Alohikea about his experience with the night marchers.
Moses stated that in the late 1920s, he was returning from Hanalei in his car around midnight. He began to cross the mouth of the valley and heard the steady beat of the pahu drum and the stomping feet of a thousand men. Moses said that the air was warm and smelled of men. With chicken skin going up his back, he knew it was the marching ghost army of Lumaha‘i.
Moses then said he would have been killed if he had been walking, but he explained that he meant no harm and that his vehicle would not hurt them. He stated that he also heard women walking because they made a different sound. He made it through the crowd, happy to get through alive.
