Members pappyld04 Posted December 22, 2009 Members Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 It Was a Dark and Stormy Night......... A TRUE IRISH GHOST STORYThis happened in Dublin, and even though it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock story, 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 storm. No cars were traveling that night..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 stop.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, very slowly. John looked at the road ahead and saw a curve approaching. Scared out of his wits, he started to pray, begging for his life. Then, just before the car hit the curve, a hand appeared through the window and turned the wheel. John, paralyzed with terror, watched as the hand repeatedly 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 his strength, he jumped out of the car and ran to the pub. 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.....definitely wasn't drunk. Suddenly, the door flies open and two other people stumble in from the stormy night. They, like John, were also soaked to the skin and out of breath. Looking around, and seeing John Bradford sobbing at the bar, one of the men at the door said to his friend ... 'Look Paddy, there's the freakin' idiot that got in the car while we were pushin' it.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
