 "The Hitchhiker Ghost"A man is driving alone at night. He sees a young girl standing on the side of a quiet country road, and he pulls over to assist her. She tells him she needs to get home, and being a good samaritan, he offers to give her a ride. He takes her to her house, drops her off, and watches her go inside. As he is driving away, he notices that she left her sweater in the car, so the next day he goes back to drop it off. An old woman answers the door, and he says “Your daughter left her sweater in my car last night.” The old woman sadly says “I’m sorry sir, but that is not possible. She has been dead for 30 years.” I have heard variations of this story countless times. It appears that each city has its own beloved hitchhiker ghost, the one from Chicago being the most famous. |

roadtrippers.com/stories/resurrection-mary-americas-most-famous-vanishing-hitchhikerResurrection Mary is America's most famous vanishing hitchhiker "Chicago's Resurrection Mary is one of the most famous "vanishing hitchhikers", well, probably ever. She's been scaring the crap out of the motorists on Archer Avenue since the 1930s, and with her consistent appearances she shows no sign of slowing down. According to the legend, Mary is the spirit of teenage girl who, after getting into a fight with her boyfriend, decided to walk home from the Oh Henry Ballroom (now know as the Willowbrook Ballroom & Banquets) late one night. After less than a mile, Mary is struck and killed in a hit-and-run by a driver who flees the scene and never found. Distraught, Mary's parents lay her body to rest in Resurrection Cemetery , wearing the same outfit she wore the night of the dance. The End. Kind of. Since 1939 people leaving the Willowbrook Ballroom & Banquets have reported seeing a woman in a white dress standing on the side of the road. Whenever she's picked up by a passing motorist, the quiet girl says nothing the entire ride, until the car passes the Resurrection Cemetery and she promptly disappears into thin air. Sometimes Mary exits the car, in one famous story she actually burns her hands into the cemetery gates, which still bare the mark to this day.". Read rest at link.
