This happened in a little town, Norris Arm, in Newfoundland, and even
though it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's absolutely true.
This fellow was on the side of the road hitchhiking on a very dark night in
the middle of a terrible rainstorm, and no cars were on the road.
The storm was so strong he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him.
Suddenly, a car came toward him and stopped. Without thinking, he got in
the car and closed the door and only then did he realize that there was nobody
behind the wheel!
The car started to move very slowly. He looked at the road and saw a curve
coming his way. Petrified, he started to pray begging for his life. Just before
the car hit the curve, a hand suddenly appeared through the window and
moved the steering wheel.
The fellow, now paralyzed in terror, watched as the hand appeared every time
the car was approaching a curve. Finally, although terrified, he managed to
open the door and jump out of the spooky car.
Without looking back, he ran through the storm all the way to the nearest
town. Soaking wet; exhausted and in a state of utter shock the pale, visibly
shaken man, walked into a nearby bar and asked for two shots of Screech.
Then, still trembling with fright, he started telling everybody about the horrible
experience he just went through with the spooky car with no driver and the
mysterious hand that kept appearing. Everyone listened in silence and became
frightened, hairs standing on end when they realized the fellow was telling the truth.
About half an hour later two guys walked into the same bar and one said to the
other, 'Lard Thundern Jasus, me son, there's the arsehole who got into the car while
we were pushing it!'
