The Waiʻalae Faceless Ghost (+ Eye Witness Interview)

📽️ For ISBILI’s Season 1 finale, we take a deep dive into the urban legend of the Waiʻalae Drive-in Theater’s infamous faceless ghost. We interview an eye witness who claims to have encountered the entity not once, but twice, back in the 1980’s.
