And you probably never will, because anything a ghost could do to haunt traffic would just get blamed on “asshole drivers”
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.
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
Isn’t the hitchhiker like one of the most famous ghost archetypes?
I’m more curious why we never see ghosts in some radical 80s and 90s attire, they’re all Victorian and shit.
Because they’re too funny, i.e. Jebediah Townhouse
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 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.
Alright I’ll give you that one
Yeah but I meant an ordinary roadway in like, y’know a city full of traffic. Tolls and stoplights, potholes and cops everywhere and whatnot
Not some zoinky one out in the boonies, cuz hauntings there are mega duh
Isn’t it crazy that haunted houses are the only houses that are haunted?
Ordinary suburban houses can be haunted too
Wouldn’t that make it a haunted house?
I was imagining haunted house to mean more like Haunted™ House like with dusty candelabras and cobwebby spiral staircases and whowhatsthems
They’re just happy to be out of traffic.
Whoa, cool username!
Usernames that are just a single word, especially that word, are gonna be ultra rare on here one day
Just spin up your own server!
I think that was a point made in the TV show Ghosts.
(spoilers for episode 1)
The main character tried to move away from a haunted house and saw ghosts everywhere. Including when she was waiting for a taxi and spoke to a woman who died in a car crash on that road, and at another point saw ww2 parachuters stuck in a tree.
They’re still mad because now they’re in ghost traffic, too busy to haunt the living.
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.
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.
Hmmm maybe all the ghosts want to haunt somewhere less crowded so they can become famous.
This is now my headcanon
