TRUE AUSTRAILIAN GHOST STORY
This story happened a while ago in Brisbane and even though it sounds
like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's true.
John Bradford, a Sydney University student, was on the side of the road
hitch hiking on a very dark night and in the midst of a 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 as it drew level it
stopped.
John, desperate for shelter and without thinking about it, got in the
car and closed the door, before he realised there was nobody behind the
wheel and the engine wasn't on!
The car started moving slowly forward. John looked at the road and saw
a curve approaching. Scared, he started to pray, begging for his life.
Then, just before he reached the curve, a hand appeared through the window
and turned the wheel.
John, paralysed with terror, watched how the hand appeared every time
they came to a curve. He then saw the lights of a pub 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 asked for two shots of tequila. He then started
telling everybody about the horrible experience he had just gone through.
A silence enveloped everybody when they realised he was crying
and....he wasn't drunk.
About 15 minutes later, two guys walked into the same pub. They were
also wet and out of breath. Looking around and seeing John Bradford sobbing
at the bar, one said to the other, "Look, Bruce.. there's the bloody idiot
who got in the car while we were pushing it."
