There's like tons of stories where people seeing ghastly figure at roadside while on their midnight drive, i'm pretty sure truck driver used to and probably still share stories about those.
What? Yeah you do. The Hitchhiking ghost is one of the most common tropes!
The Els Alfacs (Tarragona, Catalonia) road.
As you can see in the pic, it's not the middle of nowere but a road following the coast with urbanizations around.
During the 70s, a truck transporting propylene crashed on the camping wall, besides the road, exploding and killing 215 people.
Since that, drivers passing through that road, claim to see human silhouettes, besides the area of the crash, like silent witness looking at the road.
Yes you do. Ghostly hitchhikers are a common story. There's even songs about them. There's also stories of ghost cars and ghost trucks.
Gonna have to disagree with you on that one, OP. There are plenty of supposedly haunted roadways. Please don't be pedantic and ask for sources. You can do an internet search, too.
Edit: ESPECIALLY bridges
They’re still mad because now they’re in ghost traffic, too busy to haunt the living.
There's tons of haunted roads, strange to me that you haven't heard of one!
How about hospitals? People die there every day. If ghosts exist, that’s the place where you should find them. Like, not just a few either. Nearly all of them. Can you think of another place that faces so much death that they had to build specific facilities for it.
Sounds like a fun creative writing prompt
And you'd think there'd be ghosts walking up and down the halls of hospitals all day long
Y'know, when you're driving at 5mph on the freeway and your radio cuts out? That's not the DJ messing up, that's a ghost playing with the dials.
Hmmm maybe all the ghosts want to haunt somewhere less crowded so they can become famous.
That's because ghosts don't keep their cars and they can't keep up with you if you're driving.
wouldnt that be a poltegeist. supernatural had an episode where it was a ghost truck that haunted a certain road.
Wonder why so many deaths still happen? /s
Auto lobbyists got it covered
It certainly doesn't help that ghosts don't exist and are simply people lying or being overly imaginative.
Never made sense to me how people even remotely entertain the idea of ghosts. In regards to poltergeists especially, how is something that has practically no mass, since it's either invisible or barely visible, supposed to exert these forces (and resist the counter-forces) to throw shit around? What are their biomechanics? They don't have joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, any of that shit. They are just a bit of gas, if that, somewhat orderly floating around.
???
Ah, but my bad, people don't think, that's the problem.
