Highways To Hell (haunted roads and ghost cars)

dear readers

the car and the highway is acherished american tradiiton. the thrill of just packing up and moving out to greener pastures . but as in everything the very road are haunted and your journey itself can be a trip to the paranormal. today, we present haunted roads.

The Ghost Truck

In northwest England, a motorcycle accident occuried and the driver died but the passanger surived and claimed a truck had backed into the path but the police had found no opening for a truck to come out of. the police discovered that accidents had occured over a 14 month peorid and all the witness claimed to seen a vehicles in their path. the jury went so far as to camped on the road but didn't see anything. the locals claimed that the road was haunted. the police claimed it was a opcital illusion and blamed a large wall and hedge and removed the accident stopped but still occured. was the road haunted by a truck or was the hedge and wall to blame? no one knows but the locals won't walk down that strench alone...

Creek Road

in the town of Ohai, California. locals claimed that Creek road is haunted by 4 ghosts! the best known is the Charman. the story is he called that he is burned to a crisp. his face is a blacked skull wiht flesh dangling on it and he has flesh peeling from his bones. he is a angry ghost and attacks anyone walking on the road. and a teen went walking down the road on a bet and come back claimed he was attack by the charman. some claimed he was a fireman burned during a forrest fire.
others claimed he died in a fury car wreck. or was set on fire by his killer and burned to death dooming his soul to wander the road attacking innocent passeby. the second is a young horsewoman who rides at breakneck speed down the road until she gets to a place called The Curve and fly off and dieds then repeat her ride until dawn then she rests for a year. the third is a bloody bride in a wedding dress who hitchikes in a blood soaked dress no one knows her story but she appears on the day she died. finally a ghostly motorcycle driver drives up and down the road, skillfully and does an amazing job considered he has no head!

Phantom hitchhikers

the phantom hitchikers is a classic story of folklore like urban legends.
almost every part of us had a story the most famous is Resurrection Mary of Chicago . the story is a motorist is driving along and picks a young woman who asked for a ride to a address.The driver reachs the address is either a cementry like Resurrection Mary is Resurrection Cementry and or a house. in some case he gives the woman his jacket. but he turns to see her and she is gone! in fact the seatbelt is stil fastend. if it is a house he knocks on the door and discovered that his passenger is their daughter that died in a car wreck and he is not the first ride she has tried to hitch home and she is forver trying to go home. most creepily he founds his jacket on her grave when he visited the next day!. many varations are like one case Resurreciton Mary goes to a dance club and the driver dances with her! what are these stories urban legend?, or true stories.

as we have seen the roads and highways can be a weird place so when your driving keep your eyes open because you never know what you're find...

love and peace,
