ʻIke ʻia ke kūlanakauhale ʻo New Orleans no kāna mele jazz, nā ʻāpana pupule, nā meaʻai creole, ʻano ʻoluʻolu ʻole. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻole ʻia e nā malihini kipa e ʻākoakoa ana i kēia kūlanakauhale i kēlā me kēia makahiki e waiho i nā manawa maikaʻi e ʻōwili, he pouli nui ʻole ka Big Easy. E like me ka huki ʻana o New Orleans i ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i kahi manawa maikaʻi, ʻumeʻume nō hoʻi ia i ka poʻe me nā kumu ʻeleʻele.

ʻO ka Crescent City ka lewa o ka hana ʻino a me nā mea pohihihi e pili ana iā ia, a me kahi wā kolohe. Me ka hoʻokahe koko i nā alanui i ka wā o ka wā kaua a me ka mōʻaukala waiwai i nā hana ʻeleʻele, ʻo Nawlins kahi ʻino maikaʻi loa no ka poʻe e ʻapo ana i ka ʻaoʻao pouli o ke ola. E like me ka hana ʻana o ke kūlanakauhale i aloha ʻia, hana pū ʻia nā mea pepehi kanaka.
ʻO Delphine LaLaurie             

 

ʻO kekahi o nā moʻolelo ʻuhane kaulana loa e pakele ai ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Crescent i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka nui o ka ʻoiaʻiʻo. ʻOiai ua loli ka moʻolelo o Delphine LaLaurie a me kāna mansion o ka weliweli i nā makahiki i hala e like me kahi pāʻani maikaʻi ʻole o ke kelepona, ke weliweli nei nā iwi ʻōlohelohe.

Mai ka nohona kaiāulu i ka sociopath, ua ola ʻo LaLaurie i nā kāne ʻelua ma mua o ka neʻe ʻana i kāna hale nui ma Royal Street ma ka French Quarter. ʻO kahi manaʻo kānalua e pili ana i ka make ʻana o kāna mau kāne mua ʻelua ma hope o LaLaurie, e like me ka nīnau ʻana no ka mālama ʻana i kāna mau kauā.

He aha ka mea i hana ʻia ma hope o nā paia hale nui o kona home paʻa? ʻO nā lono o ka hana ʻino ʻana o kāna mau kauā i hoʻopiha i nā alanui a kamaʻilio waha ʻia i nā lehelehe o kēlā me kēia, akā ʻaʻole i lawe ʻia kahi hōʻike e hōʻoia i kēia mau hoʻopiʻi. ʻAʻole hiki i kahi ahi i puka i ka hale i 1834.

I ke komo ʻana i ka home ua ʻike nā mea pane i ke kumu o ke ahi i hoʻomaka i ka lumi kuke. ʻO ke kuke a ka ʻohana, he kauā kanahiku kona mau makahiki, ua nakinaki ʻia ʻo ia i ka umu e kona kuʻekuʻe wāwae. Ua ʻae ʻo ia i ka hoʻā ʻana i ke ahi ma ke ʻano he hoʻāʻo pepehi kanaka no ka makaʻu o lawe ʻia i ka lumi i luna ma ke ʻano he hoʻopaʻi. Ua wehewehe ʻo ia i ka manawa i lawe ʻia aku i ka hale lewa ʻaʻole ʻoe i ʻike hou ʻia.

Ua hele nā ​​mea pane i ka papahele o luna o ka hale nui, a ʻo ka mea i loaʻa iā lākou ma mua o ka weliweli. Hōʻike nā moʻolelo iā mākou ua loaʻa i ʻehiku mau kauā i loko o ke keʻena o ka hale nui, ʻo ka hapa nui o lākou i kau ʻia e ko lākou ʻāʻī, ua hoʻopau ʻia lākou āpau i kekahi ʻano a i ʻole. Ua kīloi ko lākou mau lālā a me nā hōʻailona maopopo o ka emaciation a me ka hoʻomāinoino kino i hōʻailona ʻia i ko lākou mau kino. ʻO kekahi i hoʻokomo i nā koloka spiked e mālama i ko lākou poʻo i kahi kū i luna. I ka wā i ʻimi ai ka poʻe noiʻi i ka papa o ka waiwai he ʻelua mau kino make i wehe ʻia, he keiki kekahi o lākou.

I ka lohe ʻana i ka hana hoʻomāinoino i hana ʻia ma loko o ka home o LaLaurie, haunaele nā ​​kamaʻāina huhū a hoʻouka kaua i ka hale. ʻO ka poʻe kolohe e luku ana i nā mea āpau i loko o nā paia. Minamina ua pakele ka ʻohana i ka hoʻoponopono kūloko a holo aku i Palisa kahi i waiho ʻole ʻia ai kahi hōʻike hou o ko lākou ola.

 

ʻO ke Axeman o New Orleans

 

He mea pepehi kanaka ka Axeman o New Orleans nāna i hoʻoweliweli i nā alanui o ka Big Easy mai Mei 1918 a ʻOkakopa 1919, e hōʻeha ana a luku ʻia a hiki i kahi ʻumikūmālua mau mea i make.

ʻIke liʻiliʻi loa e pili ana i ka Axeman. Ua hālāwai ka hapa nui o kāna mau mea i hōʻino ʻia e, ke kuhi ʻoe, he koʻi. ʻO ka mea maʻamau ka mea pepehi kanaka i hoʻohana ʻia i kēia mau hewa ka koʻi ponoʻī o ka mea i hōʻino ʻia. Ua kūleʻa kekahi poʻe i ko lākou hopena e kahi pahi kahi pololei. ʻO ka mea kupaianaha ʻaʻohe mea i lawe ʻia mai ka hale noho o ka mea i hōʻeha ʻia, ka mea i hōʻike ʻia ʻaʻole i hoʻonāukiuki ʻia nā hoʻouka kaua e ka ʻaihue.

ʻO kahi pilina i hana ʻia e nā mākaʻi, ʻo ka hapa nui o nā mea i hōʻino ʻia he mau malihini Italia, a ʻo Italia-ʻAmelika paha, kahi i hōʻike i kahi kumu pili i ka lāhui. Ua kuhi ka poʻe loea ʻē aʻe i ke kahua i nā mea pepehi kanaka e ka moekolohe. Manaʻo lākou ʻo ke kumu maoli o ka Axeman e ʻimi i kahi wahine e pepehi kanaka, a ʻo nā kāne i pepehi ʻia a ʻeha paha i ka home he mea pale wale ia i kēlā manawa.

I ka wikiwiki o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka pepehi kanaka ua pau lākou. ʻOiai i nā ʻoihana o kēia lā ma ke kahua he maopopo ʻole ke kumu, akā hoʻokahi mea i maopopo; ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻia ka Axeman a me kāna mau moʻolelo o ka pepehi kanaka a me ka weliweli mau i nā alanui o New Orleans.

 

Ka Pepehi Vampire

 

ʻOiai ʻaʻole i kū kēia pepehi kanaka ʻelua ma New Orleans, ua holo ka mea pepehi kanaka i ke kūlanakauhale Crescent me kāna vampire a me nā lālā o ka ʻohana. Pololei kēlā, i ka manawa o kāna hana hewa ua manaʻo ʻo Rod Ferrell he vampire ʻo ia he 500 mau makahiki, a ʻo ia, me kona ʻohana o nā vampires hoa, ua holo i ka home o ka pouli, mea pohihihi, a me ke aloha i hōʻike ʻia i loko o kā lākou puke punahele. ʻO Vampire Chronicles na Anne Rice.

ʻO ka hewa a Ferrell i hana ai ʻo ia ka luku lua ʻana i nā mākua o kāna keiki ʻōpio ʻo Heather Wendorf. Ua haʻi ʻo Wendorf iā Ferrell e noho ana ma ka home me kona mau mākua ʻo ia ka "gehena" a makemake ʻo ia e holo pū me ia, akā maopopo iā ia ʻaʻole e hoʻokuʻu kāna mau mākua iā ia.

No ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i kāna haʻalele ʻana mai kāna kaohi home ʻana, ua komo ʻo Ferrell a me kekahi hoa haipule vampire ʻo Howard Scott Anderson i loko o ka home Wendorf kahi i hahau ai i nā mākua ʻelua o Heather a make. Ua puhi ʻo Rod i kahi 'V' i loko o Richard Wendorf, ka makuakāne o Heather, ma hope o ka hoʻoweliweli ʻana i kona poʻo me ka pahu ʻoka.

Ke manaʻo nei e loaʻa iā lākou ka ʻae ma New Orleans, ua holo ka ʻohana mai ka hana hewa ma Eustis Florida a i ka Big Easy i kahi kaʻa a lākou i ʻaihue ai mai ka wahi hana hewa. He mau mile ka mamao mai ko lākou wahi i hopu ʻia ai lākou i hopu ʻia ma ka hōkele ʻo Howard Johnson i ka wā i kāhea aku ai kekahi o nā lālā i ko lākou makuahine no ke kālā, a ʻo ia ka mea i huli aku i ka mākaʻi i kahi o ka hui.

Ma o nā koi i hōʻoia ʻole ʻia, ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe i kamaʻilio iā Ferrell mai kona manawa ma hope o nā kī paʻa he make ʻole ʻo ia.
