It may have happened to you; it's happened to almost everyone who's ever driven down a highway at night, or in the fog, or snow. Something suddenly appears: a flash of movement, a shadow...what was it? It could be, as the true stories in this book attest, a ghost. These are true stories from the highways and byways of America. These firsthand accounts are as varied as the storytellers themselves—some are detailed and filled with the terror and suspense that made people feel they had to share what happened to them with others; others are brief and straightforward retellings of truly chilling events. Here is a chupacabra attack on the desert highway between L.A. and Las Vegas; ghost trains and soldiers; UFOs; the prom girl ghost of Alabama; a demon in Texas, and other accounts of the creepy, scary things that truckers and other drivers and passengers told to editor Annie Wilder. With so many different stories, Trucker Ghost Stories moves beyond the usual haunted house to offer stories to entice any ghost story reader...and anyone who's ever wondered....

Download or read book True Ghost Stories written by Zachery Knowles and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking for a Scare? Then Read These 19 Spine-chilling Stories Are you ready for a different take on the true stories of hauntings across the world? How about roads and highways that are haunted by spirits and ghosts, some of which seem to have quite evil intentions? Dangerous roads haunted by ghosts that seem determined to add to their number by causing car wrecks and a tunnel haunted by ancient warriors angry their graves were disturbed will be explored. A clown that appears by the side of the road and disappears as your car draws near or an auto accident that was witnessed months after it happened are some of the many hauntings to be discovered in this book. Animals that exhibit the symptoms of rabies the moment their feet touch the street or an aggressive ghoulie car responsible for the deaths of a group of teenagers almost 50 years ago. A woman still trying to get help for her newlywed husband trapped in their vehicle after an accident, unaware it's too late for either of them and a police officer who relives his death every time he pulls over another speeding car are just a few of the true stories of haunted highways and roads you will find within the pages of this disturbing book. India, China, Wales, Scotland, England, Australia, and the United States all have roads, streets, interstates, routes, and highways that connect one end of a country to the other. There are hundreds of thousands of roads and streets that no one experiences anything mysterious upon. Then there is a handful of streets notorious for the abnormal, disturbing, paranormal things that occur on or near them on a regular basis. While some of these hauntings only began recently, others extend back hundreds of years when the roads were dirt trails. Some of these haunted avenues are infamous, like those along Tuen Mun Road in Hong Kong, Archer Avenue in Chicago, or Mona Lisa Drive in New Orleans. Those more unknown are equally horrifying, like along A541 in Pontblyddyn, Wales and Route 2A in Maine. Regardless, you will agree this book comprises the scariest, most disturbing true tales of haunted roads and highways. One of the most unusual aspects of these stories, when compared to most true horror stories, is that just about every eyewitness encounter in the chapters of this book was experienced by someone who wasn't out looking to encounter the supernatural. These people were minding their own business when they were thrown first hand into experiences beyond the natural that would mark them for life, which means it could happen to you, too. Are you ready to never feel quite as comfortable driving along the road in the dark? Then this book is exactly what you need. Ready to scare yourself senseless?

Book excerpt: Rose Marshall died in 1952 in Buckley Township, Michigan, run off the road by a man named Bobby Cross—a man who had sold his soul to live forever, and intended to use her death to pay the price of his immortality. Trouble was, he didn’t ask Rose what she thought of the idea. It’s been more than sixty years since that night, and she’s still sixteen, and she’s still running. They have names for her all over the country: the Girl in the Diner. The Phantom Prom Date. The Girl in the Green Silk Gown. Mostly she just goes by “Rose,” a hitchhiking ghost girl with her thumb out and her eyes fixed on the horizon, trying to outrace a man who never sleeps, never stops, and never gives up on the idea of claiming what’s his. She’s the angel of the overpass, she’s the darling of the truck stops, and she’s going to figure out a way to win her freedom. After all, it’s not like it can kill her. You can’t kill what’s already dead.
