"Floating genie" Kyle Mitsumori, second from left, was the hit of the night as the Slopes of Diamond Head Hui presented a pre-Halloween party for more than 1,000 at Aloha Tower Marketplace on Saturday. Mitsumori designed and made his elaborate costume, and the effect was so realistic that some partyers almost rested their drinks on his table. Stephanie L.C. Ching, left, Donna Chun, "King David" Hayakawa and Huong Lam joined Mitsumori and their fellow hui members to produce the event. CLICK FOR LARGE
