Aloha Friends!

Good seeing you all back!  I am Jared, the host of Ghostlore of Hawaii:  Paranormal Paradise!  Thank you for joining me at our bonfire! 

Creating tonight's episode was a tough one.  The very real tragedy that this story is based on happened to an acquaintance of my fathers.  I cannot begin to imagine the grief parents go through when losing a child but the pain must be amplified when a child disappears.  The lack of closure and not wanting to believe the loss is permanent must be torture.

For a couple of years, that is exactly what this family went through.  However, strange events began to occur in the family home that forced the tragedy back into the lives of the grieving parents.  

So sit back, get comfortable, and let's dive into the haunting story of 'The disappearance of Travis'.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
