A SPOOKY STORY
It was just before midnight on October 31st
last year. Susan Lee was driving home after
visiting her sister. The road was clear and
she was driving carefully. Suddenly, out of nowhere,a young
man stepped out in front of her. He was wearing a dark
coloured raincoat and carrying a backpack. Susan stepped hard
on the brake pedal but it was too late. She got out of the car
but, to her surprise, there was nobody there. While she was
looking under the car, she felt a cold wind on her face and a
strange presence that sent shivers down her spine.
She was still looking under her car when a lorry stopped behind
her. The lorry driver, a middle-aged man, walked up to her and
asked her if she needed help to start her car so she told him
what had happened. He didnt seem surprised when Susan told
him about the young man. 'In October 1978, there was a car
accident on this road and a
hitchhiker was fatally run over.
You're not the first to have seen his
ghost here', he said in a mysterious
tone.
