Haunting
the halls of Hawai'i Pacific University
Students living in HPU residence halls celebrated
Halloween by decorating their buildings and their rooms.
“
We had an awesome event in the residence halls last night,” said
Beth Muaina, associate director of Housing: “Haunted
Halls.”
Each residence hall converted their hall into a Haunted House.
Judges from the Housing and Residence Life Office and the Dining
Commons Staff walked through each hall and, of course, they
were subject to all the horrible hauntings in the hall.
“
Halls really got creative and residents were enthusiastically
engaged,” said Muaina. “As a judge, I was thoroughly
impressed with the creativity, effort, and enthusiastic participation
of the residents! Just AWESOME!”

get a life
