t was just before midnight on Oetober 31 St last year. Susan Lee was driving home after visiting her sister. The road was clear and she was driving carefully. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a young man stepped out in front of her. He was wearing a dark coloured raincoat and carrying a backpack. Susan stepped hard on the brake pedal but it was too late. She got out of the car but, to her surprise, there was nobody there. While she was looking under the car, she sent shivers down her spine. She was still looking under her car when a lorry stopped behind her. The lorry driver a middle - aged man, walked up her and asked her if she needed help to start her car so she told him what had happened. He didn't seem surprised when Susan told him about the young man. 'In October 1978, there was a car accident on this road and a hitchhiker was fatally run over. You're not the first to have seen his ghost here ',he said in a mysterious tone.
