No laila, he mea pepehi kanaka ʻoe a loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi mea hōʻeha aʻe a pau i wae ʻia no ka pō Pōʻalima e hiki mai ana. ʻO ka Pōʻalima wale nō ka mea mua o ka hana hou ʻana o “Halloween” a he mau likiki kāu, ʻaʻole ʻoe e nalo i kēlā: ola kekahi ola.

A kikoo, akau? Akā ʻo ia nō ka manaʻo a me nā hopena ma hope o kahi noiʻi e ʻōlelo nei nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni weliweli ʻaʻole hoʻonāukiuki i ka hana hoʻomāinoino, hoʻokahuli lākou iā ia.

Ua hoʻoholo ʻo Economists ʻO Gordon Dahl lāua ʻo Stephano Della Vigna e hoʻokau i kahi kuhiakau i kahi hōʻike ma kahi noi 2003. Ua kālailai lākou i nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni hoʻokuʻu nui ma kahi o ke anahulu. Ua ʻike lākou no kēlā me kēia miliona poʻe i ʻike i kahi kiʻi ʻinoʻino i kēlā lā, ua hoʻemi ʻia nā hana kolohe e 1.5 a 2 pakeneka.

ʻO ia ke ʻano o nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni e like me "Hostel," "The Purge," a me "Ua hiki ke hana hewa i nā hewa kolohe he 1,000 i ka hopena pule. ʻaʻole e like me ka manaʻo o kekahi poʻe, hoʻoulu i ka poʻe e hoʻokō iā lākou.

ʻOkoʻa ia i nā hoʻopaʻapaʻa e ʻōlelo ana he weliweli nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni weliweli a i ʻole "Ua nui loa ka hana ʻino i ka honua." E haʻi ʻia ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, aia nā kope kope a hoʻoulu ʻia e ka hana kolohe celluloid, akā he kakaikahi kēlā a hiki ke wehewehe ʻia ma lalo i kēia ʻatikala.

Ua ʻike nō hoʻi ʻo Dahl lāua ʻo Vigna i kahi mea hou kupaianaha: ua hoʻopau ʻia kēia mau mea hoʻohuli hewa i nā lawehala a me ka waiʻona ma waena o ka poʻe ma mua o ka makahiki inu kānāwai.

ʻOiai ke paipai nei kēia mau helu helu, eia naʻe, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻopaʻa wale i ka wā pōkole. ʻO ka hoʻohiki ka wā lōʻihi no ka mea ua loaʻa i nā kānaka noiʻi "ʻAʻohe hōʻike o nā hopena holo waena a ʻekolu mau pule ma hope o ka hōʻike mua ʻana" i nā kiʻi ʻino.

ʻO ka hoʻonui hou ʻana i kēia hopena he papahana hou loa ia ma Cape Town South Africa e ka hui waiwai ʻole ManaʻoNohana. Ua like ke ʻano o kā lākou noi ʻana me nā hopena like me Dahl lāua ʻo Vigna ma kekahi ʻano ʻokoʻa.

I ke aʻo ʻana o ʻApelika Hema, 156 i hāʻawi kaulike ʻia i ka poʻe ʻōpio loaʻa haʻahaʻa i kahi hui kaohi a i kahi hui i komo. Ua manuahi ka pūʻulu hoʻokele e noho i ko lākou ola ma ke ʻano maʻamau, akā ua noi ʻia ka pūʻulu komo e hana me kahi polokalamu kamepiula i hōʻike i nā hana o ka hopena pule i palekana a leʻaleʻa.

ʻO kekahi o nā manaʻo i hāʻawi ʻia e hoʻomaka ana i ka pāʻani soccer a me nā mea like me ia. I ka manawa i pae ai lākou i kahi mea a lākou e makemake ai, ua kōkua ka papahana iā lākou e ʻike i nā kikoʻī e like me ka mea e kono ai, ma hea kahi e noho ai, a pēlā aku.

Ua hōʻike ʻia nā hopena i ka poʻe e ʻeleu ana i ka hoʻolālā ʻana i kahi mea leʻaleʻa a i ʻole ka hana ʻana he hapalua paha e komo i nā hana palekana a i ʻole ʻike i ka hana ʻino ma loko o ka hopena pule e hiki mai ana. ʻO ka mea ʻāpiki, ʻoi aku ka hilinaʻi o ka pūʻulu hoʻomalu i nā hana palekana.

A eia kekahi hiʻohiʻona e noʻonoʻo ai. I ka makahiki 2014, a hoʻopaʻa haʻawina mua loa ua alakaʻi ʻia ma waena o kahi pūʻulu kūpilikiʻi a me nā mea hōʻeuʻeu ʻole. Ua hōʻike ʻia nā kiʻi ʻelua i nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni weliweli. ʻAʻole he mea kupanaha ka poʻe i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ma ke ʻano he kū ʻole i ka manaʻo, hopohopo a me ka ʻole o ke aʻa, ʻoiai ka noho mālie a me ka "emi ʻole o ka huhū." ʻO ia a hiki i ka pau ʻana o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni. Once ua pau ka Kūpa'a ua hoʻonui ʻia ka helu o ka puʻuwai a i ka manawa o ka hoʻāʻo ʻole e hoʻonāukiuki ʻia o ka hoʻokolohua i kapa ʻia ʻo ke kahua "ʻauana ka noʻonoʻo", kahi i hōʻike ʻole ʻia ai, loaʻa i nā mea hakakā, "hana kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o ka lolo."

ʻO Dr Nelly Alia-Klein, o ka Halemai ʻo Mount Sinai ma New York, i ʻōlelo e pili ana i nā hopena, "Pehea ka pane ʻana o ke kanaka i ko lākou kaiapuni e pili ana i ka lolo o ka mea ʻike."

I ka pōkole, inā ua makemake mua ʻoe e noʻonoʻo me ka manaʻo e hiki i ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ke hoʻoulu i nā ʻano like, akā ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo e ukali nā mea āpau, ʻo ia kāu ʻōnaehana limbic.

ʻAʻole mākou ma iHorror e ʻae i ka hana ʻino, hiki iā mākou ke leʻaleʻa i nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni e hōʻike nei iā ia no nā kumu like ʻole, akā ʻo ka kiʻi ʻana i nā manaʻo e hele a mimic iā lākou ʻaʻole ia i loko o kā mākou hale kaʻa huila. 

E ʻaʻa pū wau e ʻōlelo ua hāʻule mākou i ke kumumanaʻo "distraction" i ho'ākāka ʻia ma luna no ka mea inā ʻoe e lawe manawa ana e heluhelu i kēia, a ʻaʻohe ou tikika i ka hana hou ʻana o "Halloween", ke mālama nei iā ʻoe mai ka hana ʻana i nā mea ʻē aʻe e like me nā mea luku.

No laila, ʻōlelo mākou, nā luna, nā mea hana keaka, a me nā mea kākau e hoʻomau i ka hana ʻana i nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni weliweli, he poʻe ola hiki ʻole ʻoe, a i kēia manawa hiki iā mākou ke kū wiwo ʻole ma hope ou me nā hōʻoia ke makemake ka poʻe e hoʻopaʻapaʻa i kahi ʻē aʻe.
