An Irish ghost story.
4 Answers
Subject:* An Irish Ghost Story
*This story happened a while ago in Dublin , and even though it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's true.**
John Bradford, a Dublin University student, was on the side of the road hitchhiking on a very dark night and in the midst of a big storm. The night was rolling on and no car went by. The storm was so strong he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly, he saw a car slowly coming towards him and stopped.*
*John , desperate for shelter and without thinking about it, got into the
car and closed the door.... Only to realize there was nobody behind the wheel and the engine wasn't on. **
The car started moving slowly. John looked at the road ahead and saw a curve approaching. Scared, he started to pray, begging for his life. Then, just before the car hit the curve, a hand appeared out of nowhere through the window, and turned the wheel. John , paralyzed with terror, watched as the hand came through the window, but never touched or harmed him.*
*Shortly thereafter, John saw the lights of a pub appear down the road, so, gathering strength; he jumped out of the car and ran to it. Wet and out of breath, he rushed inside and started telling **
Everybody about the horrible experience he had just had.*
*A silence enveloped the pub when everybody realized he was crying... And wasn't drunk.*
*Suddenly, the door opened, and two other people walked in from the dark and stormy night. They, like John , were also soaked and out of breath. Looking around, and seeing John Bradford sobbing at the bar, one said to the other.... **
"Look Paddy....there's that fooking idiot that got in the car while we were pushing it!'*
I know one of the people who was pushing the car, so it's a true story.
