Just minutes away from the bustling state capital of Honolulu – but still within the city limits – is the lush Manoa Valley. This residential area is home to the University of Hawaii at Manoa, receives almost daily rain, and was the site of the first sugarcane and coffee plantations in the Hawaiian Islands. Hidden deep within Manoa Valley, in the middle of the forest, is a spot similar to one you would find in a horror movie, and one of the most haunted places in Hawaii. Check it out — if you dare.
The Lyon Arboretum has been open to the public for more than 40 years, and while many locals and tourists alike opt for the more popular Manoa Falls, this picturesque rainforest should not be overlooked — especially by fans of all things creepy.

In the middle of this 194-acre garden home to more than 15,000 accessions, including an impressive collection of native Hawaiian plants, is an abandoned seismograph station that just might give you nightmares.

The Lyon Arboretum Trail will take you on a journey through native Hawaiian flora to a beautiful waterfall. But before you reach the falls on the main trail, you will come across an old, rundown, concrete building that was once used as a seismograph station.

This spot is rumored to be haunted, and we can’t imagine the stories we would learn, if only walls could talk. Either way, hikers will undoubtedly feel an eerie vibe when they come across this creepy spot.

While the exterior of this abandoned building is certainly creepy, it is the interior that will really transport you to a horror movie — perhaps one with tales of the paranormal, or even a psychopathic serial killer?

We can’t find specific stories of hauntings, but it’s hard to deny that this long abandoned building in the middle of the forest is creepy, to say the least.
