Today, Ford Island is home to several historical places and monuments, including Pacific Aviation Museum and USS Missouri. This is where most of the haunting ghost stories come from.

Pearl Harbor tragedy

When the sun was created, a serene port suddenly broke out in chaos, when the Japanese imperial navy began the attack on December 7, 1941. Although the attack is often described as an unexpected attack, Japan and the US survived months of negotiations of the Pacific they wanted. The United States was also one of the nations putting the embargo to the nation after they waged a war with China. The Japanese needed pus trade from the USA and after a hull note, telling them to withdraw from China without any conditions, the Japanese Task group went to Pearl Harbor. They not only attacked Pearl Harbor, but also American Philippines, Guam, Wake Island, as well as the British Empire in Malay, Singapore and Hong Kong.

The sky darkened with swarms of fighters, and the explosions echoed through the base, smashing morning peace. Within a few hours, more than 2,400 American lives were lost, as well as 129 Japanese, numerous ships were sunk or seriously damaged, and the Pacific fleet lay in ruins. This attack revived the United States, driving them to World War II the next day.

Objects in people's homes mysteriously move or arrange without human intervention, and the devices turn on and turn off at strange hours of the night, as if manipulated by hidden hands.
