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 idiot that got in the car while we were
pushing it!!!!'
