Haunted plantation village offers unique experience A LICIA PARTRIDGE Senior Staff Writer

If you’re looking for a true haunted attraction that is sure to make your hair stand up, cause you to wet yourself and have uncontrollable nightmares, then the Haunted Plantation is it. “The scare factor is way up this year,” said event organizer, Noa Laporga. Hawai‘i’s Plantation Village in Waipahu and Groundup Movement LLC are hosting the 5th annual “Haunted Plantation” attraction on Friday, Oct. 29, Saturday, Oct. 30 and Sunday, Oct. 31 from 7 p.m. till 11:30 p.m. This local attraction takes visitors through a bone-chilling walkthrough of the haunted grounds of the 20th century plantation village. Admission is only $10 or $15 for a fast pass that will take you through a faster line. Tickets can only be purchased at the plantation on the day of the event. A large percentage of the proceeds are donated to the plantation.

“This year we are the cheapest,” Laporga said. “We want to make it affordable to people.” This event is not for children under 13, women who are pregnant or people with heart conditions. Children under 16 need adult supervision. The walkthrough lasts approximately 15 minutes. It is advised to show up between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. to get a ticket. Many people come hours early to guarantee their spot. Food vendors will be there for the ﬁ rst half of the night. “People are very superstitious in Hawai‘i,” said Laporga. “The people who came here brought their cultures and superstitions with them. Hawai‘i is such a melting pot.” The walkthrough pulls from local legends that stem from the folklore of the time. The characters consist of the Japanese faceless lady Mujina, the Filipino demon vampire Aswang and the geisha Kiku who drowned herself by ﬁ lling her kimono with stones.

“These are all original characters based on Hawaiian folklore,” Laporga said. “You will not see any Michael Myers or Freddy Krugers.” Fifty professional paid actors put on the show with professional Hollywood-style make-up. There is a different theme each year. This year is “5 years of fear,” for the 5th anniversary. Laporga explained that the haunt is different every year and you can never expect to see the same show twice. They have added two new mini productions for those waiting in line. These 8-10 minute shows will happen at opening and during the intermission. No details as to the content of these shows have been revealed. “We see a lot of people fainting, peeing their pants, throwing up and leaving halfway through the tour,” Laporga said. The attraction started in 2006, when Groundup Movement’s owner Noa Laporga had the idea to start up a haunted attraction. He approached the Hawai‘i Plantation Village executive director after learning of its legends and stories. “I had to ﬁ ght for it, Jeff Higa gave me a chance,” Laporga said. In 2006 they showed it for one night and sold out after 1,000 people. The second year they showed it two nights, which also sold out. The third year they showed it for four nights and last year they did it seven, all of which have sold out. Per night, the attraction sees between 1,500-2,000 people. When it sells out they shut the gates. “The Haunted Plantation targets a younger more media-savvy audience that we do not usually reach and introduces them to the village and our offerings,” said Jeffery Higa, the Hawai‘i Plantation Village Executive Director. The Haunted Plantation has received many reviews and was most recently ranked 6th out of the 10 “spots in the U.S. that will scare the bejezus out of you,” by the world’s largest independent travel

magazine, Matador Network. The legends and true stories of paranormal experiences add to the scare factor. Jeff Higa will lead the “Haunted Hawai‘i Ghost Stories” tour, a tour where he will recount true stories of the supernatural happenings, sightings and encounters in the village. Longtime Waipahu resident and storyteller, Moira Nakamine, will also tell of paranormal events and local legends of the Waipahu area. “A lot of accidents have occurred on Waipahu Street,” Laporga said. “People talk of seeing people standing in the road and of a woman who will appear in your car if you don’t stop for her. These are what people have claimed to see.” During the day and offseason, the plantation offers guided cultural and educational tours about the plantation’s history and workers. Each of the different buildings is furnished with items that reﬂ ect a particular ethnic group around the time period.

DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD

“This village took about twenty years to set up,” Higa said. “Many family members of the workers have donated items.” In addition to the Haunted Plantation event, the village does school tours, ethnic celebrations, holiday celebrations, tourist activities and even runs community gift shop. “We hope to expand both the haunted plantation event but other activities as well,” Higa said. “Noa has given us a higher proﬁ le.”

It’s only Halloween

R E P O R T E RʼS COMM E N TA RY “The Haunted Plantation was one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen in person. You immediately feel goose bumps walking through the tunnel to the start of the walkthrough. Once I went into the ﬁrst building, I immediately felt chills. Each room had its own level and theme. This was not a little kiddy show. Think of your childhood fears and put them into life. It was worth going but I highly recommend getting the fast pass and arriving early.”

Candy control: 5 healthier Halloween treats H AIYA SARWAR Staff Writer It’s Halloween and there’s candy tempting you everywhere. What are you going to do? The key to success in this situation isn’t deprivation. According to Diane Dooley, UHM professor of nutrition, the key here is to choose wisely and to get what you really want by choosing the best type of candy you can get and treating it as a luxury. “Food should be a pleasure, and we should be able to indulge once in a while in some less-than-nutritious food (and) drinks,” said Dooley. “Yes, candy has a lot of reﬁ ned sugar ... and it can be very energy-dense. In modest amounts, candy should be able to ﬁt into an otherwise nutritionally okay diet, not just (on) Halloween.”

KHAIRIL ZHAFRI / FLICKR

As a general rule of thumb, if hydrogenated and other unnecessary oils are listed in the ingredients, it’s a sign to stay away. Typically, the more ingredients, the more artificial and unhealthy the candy will be. But the point is that some candies are better for you than others.Here is a list of five scrumptious, healthier choices for you this Halloween:

S I L K Y S MO O T H DA R K C H O C O L AT E S I N G L E S These decadent treats are portioned to contain only 190 calories per bar - yet they are large enough to satisfy your chocolate craving. Their ingredients are kept to a minimum (in comparison with other chocolate bars such as Hersey’s Cookies n’ Cream) and are composed of more natural ingredients like real choco-

sized pack of these crunchy buggers rounds up to only 90 calories. As long as you refrain from grabbing more, 90 calories is hardly enough to count as ruining even a strict diet. Though they do contain a lot of chemicals, they contain much less than other candy-aisle brands.

TOOTSIE POPS When you just need something sugary in your mouth, this classic candy can give you the ﬁ x. Though they are almost nothing but sugar, they are only a mere 60 calories a pop -- and as long as you keep licking, they can last several hours. The imposing question is: how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

RUSSELL STOVER DARK CHOCOLATE COVERED MARSHMALLOW PUMPKINS

shey’s C ook ie s n’ Cream Bars or a hydro genated oil-rich Twix, it definitely won’t kill you. As Dooley explains, “The major concerns I have are that you clean your teeth afterward and that you have no underlying health concerns, like diabetes, when you should not be eating certain carbohydratecontaining foods. Other than that, as a nutritionist, I see very little wrong with enjoying a substantial amount of candy a few times a year.”

These adorable little pumpkins are only 110 calories a pack and very low in fat. If you’re craving marshmallows and chocolate, this seasonal treat kills two birds with one stone. Make sure to opt for the dark chocolate one though, as these pumpkins come in many other tempting (albeit unCRYSTAL/ FLICKR healthier) ﬂ avors.

4.2 million peeps are made in the U.S. every day. In 1958, the Just Born candy company introduced different Peep shapes, including the pumpkin seen above.

PUMPKIN PEEPS

But choosing a healthier candy you love over one that is not as healthy obviously makes for a wiser decision. In chocolate bars, for example, the higher the cocoa content, the higher the nutrition beneﬁts. Dark chocolate, loaded with antioxidant rich ﬂ avonoids, are usually healthier than their milk chocolate counterparts.

These sugary puffs are the most delightfully light seasonal candies. The best part is, eating a whopping eight pieces rounds up to only 130 calories. Although being primarily comprised of sugar, they are not much more than that, thereby keeping additional harm at a minimum. Even if you don’t opt for the healthier choices and instead divulge in those Her-

late and milkfat. This oil-free chunk of deliciousness even provides 2 grams of protein without the trans fat.

P E A N U T M & MʼS In general, nuts and fruit ﬁ lling can bring a touch of nutritional goodness to even the worst of candies. One small, fun-

The slow and painful life and death of meth addicts R EECE FARINAS Features Editor

The last seven years of Alexei Melnick’s life have been spent writing a novel to spread awareness about the affects of crystal methamphetamine. Melnick, an English M.A. student at UHM, has dedicated his time to patching together the lives of 13 meth addicts into a parallel universe. “Tweakerville: Life and Death of Hawai’i’s Ice World” is his novel based on the slippery slope of the meth culture. “ Tweakerville is a work of fiction and what I mean by that is that it’s more about artistic truth than specific honesty. There’s things I can’t say. But if the questions was: Do I know people who were locked up, shot, forced to trade their body for drugs, or died doing them, people I have undying love and respect for? The answer is yes,” said Melnick in an e-mail interview.

As many organizations, including the Hawai‘i Meth Project, continue to beef up their awareness campaigns, Melnick’s contribution to the prevention of hard drugs comes at a time when meth awareness is at its most critical stage. “Those many controversial unresolved issues that the general public has largely lost interest in didn’t go away… what the book says to the reader is that one cause of the crystal meth epidemic is the reader’s own negligence and inaction or that it’s time the reader stopped worrying about just the future of their own kids, and thought about the future of everyone’s children,” said Melnick. According to the U.S. Department of Justice “DEA Fact Sheet: Hawai‘i”, crystal methamphetamine is the primary drug threat to Hawai‘i. The Ofﬁce of Applied Studies, National Surveys on Drug Use and Health has stated that Hawai‘i

proximity of the setting. “Tweakerville is a book that looks at (one of the) drug subcultures from inside out, not outside in,” Melnick said, “Meth users are very different from one another. A lot of girls start to lose weight. Some guys use it to stay up at work. Some hide it better than others. Some keep control for a while before the drug becomes the God ﬁ gure in their life, but not most. The average day starts for a full-blown chronic by not waking up cuz they’re already awake. They clean their pipe and think about how to use other people to get drugs. It doesn’t feel wrong anymore because the drug keeps telling you it’s right.” As the meth culture becomes more and more prevalent in Hawai’i the fight against firsttime meth use is the issue Melnick and the Hawai‘i Meth Project strive to push everyday.

Although their primary goal is prevention against fi rst-time usage, programs exist to resuscitate those trapped in the meth culture. Hina Mauka, a rehabilitation clinic that has five locations in Honolulu, has helped hundreds of patients in its 40 -year history. Consecutively receiving accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, the highest level of award that can be received by an organization, Hina Mauka has excelled in treating those who are substance dependent. The organization offers residential treatment that gives dependents a chance to set aside some time in a safe and stable environment for self-assessment of their usage. Users are given an opportunity to live a more fulfi lling life without the infl uence of

drugs and alcohol. Depending on an individual’s situation, residential treatment can last from several weeks to several months. In preparation for their rehabilitation therapy, an individual treatment plan is agreed upon with input from the client. Clients reside in a dorm setting at the Kaneohe facility, where they participate in educational classes, group sessions, recreation and other activities. Once they are able to make free forming-decisions, the client is remitted in to the world to function normally in society once again. Woman’s Way, an outreach substance abuse program that tries to avoid separating women from their children, is based out of the Salvation Army in Honolulu. “Expanding and funding these programs makes more fiscal sense when you consider the exponentially increasing costs of locking up Hawai’is youth on and off until old age or exporting our prisoners to other states,” said Melnick.

Bare-zilla returns DANNY R HEY ACIDER A Contributing Writer With Halloween just around the corner, a handful of women are scoping out costumes that are hot and sexy, but what is considered inappropriate for Halloween? Women do it to “purposefully get male attention,” said Hillary Catacutan, a ﬁ rst year student at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. Catacutan gave the example of a nurse outﬁt.

with it. Last time I checked, Halloween in America was a time where you could dress up in clothes rather than out of them. With the invention of cameras and Facebook, all it takes is a split second for your face and costume to be photographed and posted online. In college, students often do not think of the consequences, especially for holidays like Halloween. But getting rejected from a high end job when recruiters see your Halloween costume on Facebook is preventable.

“No girl dresses up in fully clothed scrubs and tennis shoes at a Halloween party. She would probably wear a tight, red and white, low cut suit with high heels. I’ve seen it many times before,” said Catacutan. Last Halloween, my friends and I went out to Waikīkī to see what cool costumes people came up with. Unfortunately, we came back disappointed because most of the girls were half-naked. What used to be a holiday to show off creative outﬁts has turned into a show of short skirts and low-cut tops. It’s not ok to dress scandalously and get away

Yet, if the objectiﬁ cation of one’s self is ﬁ ne and taking the risk seems worth it, have concern for our keiki. If I were a parent I would not want my child exposed to women in pasties and men dressed as marijuana plants. Even as a guy, I wouldn’t be comfortable revealing myself to the world. What happened to self-respect? As Catacutan said, girls do it to “get male attention.” Does this mean talking doesn’t work anymore? This Halloween, beware not only ghosts, vampires, and creepy monsters, beware of what you wear and where you wear it.

Decapitated kittens, bleeding anuses, and buckled heads M ICHAEL BREWER Associate Opinions Editor When was the last time you stumbled across something on the Internet you couldn’t un-see? It probably started with a harmless search for some video a friend showed you once. You clicked a few links and ended up on a page littered with pornography and banner ads telling you to collect your million-dollar prize money. In the center of the trash was a video link. You pressed it, annoyingly shoved away the pop-up ads and waited a little for the video to buffer. The gore that happened next rocked your world in a series of emotions ranging from disgust to fascination. You know what I’m talking about: shock videos. They’ve been creeping their way down the mainstream Internet for a while now. The reason why people watch them is multi-layered. Some are fooled into watching shocking content because of bait-and-switch tactics, like a disguised e-mail from a friend. Others willingly choose to watch shock videos after stumbling upon them, driven by an insatiable curiosity to see more gore. This stuff is desensitizing our youth. Research published in the October 2010 issue of the Oxford Journal Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience suggests that TV programs and video games desensitize teens by decreasing their emotional responses. Dr. Jordan Grafman, the lead researcher on the project, said, “We found that as the boys were exposed to more violent videos over time, their activation in brain regions concerned with emotional reactivity decreased ….” Internet videos’ inﬂ uence is the same, if not stronger, than TV programming. The study, along with another published in the February 2009 Journal of Youth and Adolescence, suggests that violent media also promotes aggressive attitudes and behavior. You want proof of this?

video posted on Rotten.com that depicted “a kitten being killed and prepared for a meal.” The conscious animal was struck on the head twice, “decapitated, butchered and cooked.” PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) was outraged. These laws are not limited to gore. Internet obscenity ranges in form from decapitations to child pornography, and you’re just as likely to see the latter fl oating around some of the more underground websites. But be careful with this one: under federal law 18 U.S.C. §1466A, it’s a federal offence to “knowingly produce, distribute, receive, or possess (child pornography) with intent to distribute a … depiction … (of) a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct and is obscene.” Even if one were to accidentally download child porn in a pack of fi les from a torrent, and those fi les were hanging around in the network shared folder, that person would be eligible for a maximum fi ve-year sentence in federal prison. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children estimated that 20 percent of all pornography on the Internet, in 2003, was child pornography and that since 1997, the volume of kiddy porn had risen 1500 percent. The U.S. Department of Justice reported that a single child pornography website got over a million hits per month, and that there are currently an estimated 50,000 to 100,000 pedophiles operating in child porn rings around the world. Stumbling across this stuff isn’t diffi cult. Go to 4chan.org late at night and scroll down the list of topics. The bastards love it. Obscene videos are usually hosted on shock sites, or websites that are intended to be offensive. Popular examples are Goatse.cx, Lemonparty.org, Tubgirl.com, and the “2 Girls 1 Cup” phenomenon that evolved into an Internet subculture. Popular hosting sites like Rotten.com, Nothingtoxic.com and TheYNC.com also take in user-submitted videos and hyperlinks from other hosts to create galleries of offensive media, although they won’t take in child pornography for fear that the FBI would shut them down. If you really want to be prepared for Halloween, tune into the sinister side of the Internet for some ghastly preparation. But please, don’t eat beforehand, and carry a tissue — it’s a rough ride.

WAC opponents beware ’Bows haven’t lost a set in conference play a loss this year in the WAC,” Ka‘aihue said. “We’re going to be ﬁ ne as long as we prepare. They’re (New Mexico State) a great team but we’re just going to do what we do and hopefully be pulling out a win against them.” The Rainbow Wahine will conclude with Louisiana Tech next Monday at 7 p.m. The Lady Techsters (10-14, 0-9 WAC) are struggling in the conference. Hawai‘i swept LA Tech on Oct. 1 in Ruston, La. Despite their struggles, LA Tech still leads the conference in digs per set (15.11). “They’re digging balls but just not putting anything away,” Ka‘aihue said. “Props to them, they’re getting a lot of digs but you just can’t dig a ball you got to put it away for a point.”

M ARC A R AK AKI Associate Sports Editor

The No. 5 Rainbow Wahine volleyball team will kick off Halloween in the Stan Sheriff Center. “It’s been like this for the past four years that I’ve been playing,” senior libero Elizabeth Ka‘aihue said. “We either have a game on Halloween night or one night after. It’s not a bummer, it’s great. Maybe if we could get some fans out dressed up ... that would be fun.” Despite playing on Halloween, the ’Bows will try to keep their focus on volleyball, although the team may celebrate after. “I know some of us are going to get together and get dressed up,” Ka‘aihue said. “We have some fairies and some bumblebees and some people are dressing up so it should be fun. But nothing too crazy because we know we have a busy weekend.” Following their longest road trip of the season so far, the ’Bows are glad to be home. The ’Bows will be home for two weeks. “We knew the trip was going to be long and hard,” head coach Dave Shoji said. “We played well and the girls focused really well but it’s always nice to get back and play at home.”

The Rainbow Wahine (19-1, 9-0 WAC) will open their threegame home stand with Boise State on Friday at 7 p.m. The Broncos (17-9, 4-6 WAC) are coming off of a ﬁ ve-set loss to Fresno State on Monday. Last week, the ’Bows swept the Broncos in Boise, Idaho. “They’re a very good team,” freshman middle blocker Emily Hartong said. “They played really well against us and we know they’ll come out stronger, especially with them knowing our tendencies and what we like to run.

Hartong made a case for WAC Freshman of the Year during Hawai‘i’s last road trip. She put down 21 kills on 41 attempts over three matches. Shoji said this is what he expected of Hartong. “Emily is very versatile, a very big part of our team,” Shoji said. “She does a lot for us and she’s played well for being a freshman – started every match and starting to play more from the middle and the outside.” And Hartong is excited to continue her solid play at home. “(I) just keep trying as hard as I can,” Hartong said. “Getting up, transitions, working hard and

’Bows in must-win situation SEAN M ICHEL Senior Staff Reporter The Rainbow Wahine soccer team (3-12-3) will wrap up the regular season on the road against Western Athletic Conference opponents, the Nevada Wolfpack (6 -9-3, 1-5 -1 WAC) and the Utah State Aggies (86 -5, 4-2-1 WAC). The ’Bows will play in Reno, Nev., tonight at 4 p.m. HST against the Wolfpack and will travel west to take on the Aggies in Logan, Utah, at 9 a.m. HST. Only the top six teams teams in the ﬁ nal WAC standings qualify for the tournament next week. Despite their record, the ’Bows can still gain a berth if they win both games. Qualiﬁ cation into the tournament is based on a team’s conference win-loss records, not their overall record. And although the Rainbow Wahine are last in the conference overall, they are seventh out of the nine in terms of WAC record. Should the ’Bows drop one game, they would need to beat Fresno State, which is currently sixth with a 2-3-1 WAC record, to drop their final two matches against Boise State (4-1-1 WAC) and Idaho (4-2 WAC) to qualify.

11 ZAK NOYLE / RED BULL

South Shore defends title SEAN M ICHEL Senior Staff Reporter For the second year in a row, 10 South Shore surfers defeated their North Shore counterparts in the Red Bull Rivals contest at Sandy Beach last Saturday. After the initial “rock, paper, scissors” between each teams’ captains, North Shore front-man Jamie O’Brien selected his teammate, professional surfer T.J. Barron, to call out an opponent in the day’s ﬁ rst heat. Barron selected 17-year-old

Ezekiel Lau of Honolulu. “It ’s kind of more relaxed,” Lau said of the contest ’s format. “Ever yone gets more involved and it ’s not so much an individual sport. You have your own team and side of the island that you represent.” Besides rock, paper, scissors to begin match-ups, another unique thing about the Rivals contest is its scoring criteria. Surfers in the contest were scored using an “expression session” format. Instead of being judged on their best three waves throughout

the heat, like in most surf contests, the competitors were judged on their overall performance. “(It’s) an excellent format. It opens the door for surfers to try and let loose and go for broke,” South Shore surfer Keanu Asing said. “It’s a bit more exciting to see that sort of thing rather than just doing the moves to get the scores.” A fter trading blows throughout the day, the North and South Shores were knotted up at six heats a piece going into the final two heats.

T he South Shore won both and took home the crown, bragging rights and the North Shore squads’ sur f boards, which will be donated to the Sur f A id Foundation. Lau, who was making vertical assaults on the choppy surf with ease, won Most Valuable Player. “I kind of just stayed on the rights at Half Point,” said Lau, when explaining his strategy that won the day’s ﬁ nal heat. “(It’s) punchier and steeper over there so I just tried to do a couple of airs and it worked out.”

A fter the contest, the teams moved 15 miles east to Waikiki’s Parc Hotel for Red Bull surfer Jamie O’Brien’s newest surf movie premier. “Who is J.O.B.?” was ﬁ lmed over the course of the past three years in Indonesia, Micronesia, Japan, Fiji, Tahiti and O‘ahu. The movie is O’Brien’s third, but the first to include his personal life. The premier party was full, and free drinks and pupus were provided by Red Bull for those in attendance over the age of 21.
