    LOUISIANA GHOST STORY
    >>
    >>This happened about a month ago just outside of Cocodrie, a little
    >>town in the bayou country of Louisiana, and while it sounds like an
    >>Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's real.
    >>
    >>This out of state traveler was on the side of the road, hitchhiking on
    >>a real dark night in the middle of a thunderstorm. Time passed slowly
    >>and no cars went by.
    >>
    >>It was raining so hard he could hardly see his hand in front of his
    >>face. Suddenly he saw a car moving slowly, approaching and appearing
    >>ghostlike in the rain. It slowly and silently crept toward him and
    >>stopped.
    >>
    >>Wanting a ride real bad the guy jumped in the car and closed the door;
    >>only then did he realize that there was nobody behind the wheel, and
    >>no sound of an engine to be heard over the rain. Again the car crept
    >>slowly forward and the guy was terrified, too scared to think of
    >>jumping out and running. The guy saw that the car was approaching a
    >>sharp curve and, still too scared to jump out, he started to pray and
    >>begging for his lif! e; he wa s sure the ghost car would go off the road
    >>and in the bayou and he would surely drown! But just before the curve
    >>a shadowy figure appeared at the driver's window and a hand reached in
    >>and turned the steering wheel, guiding the car safely around the bend.
    >>Then, just as silently, the hand disappeared through the window and
    >>the hitchhiker was alone again!
    >>
    >>Paralyzed with fear, the guy watched the hand reappear every time they
    >>reached a curve. Finally the guy, scared to near death, had all he
    >>could take and jumped out of the car and ran to town.
    >>
    >>Wet and in shock, he went into a bar and voice quavering, ordered two
    >>shots of whiskey, then told everybody about his supernatural
    >>experience.
    >>
    >>A silence enveloped and everybody got goose bumps when they realized
    >>the guy was telling the truth (and not just some drunk).
    >>
    >>About half an hour later two guys walked into the bar and one says to
    >>the other, "Look Boudreaux, ders dat idiot that rode in our car when
    >>we wuz pushin it in the rain."

    Well, it sounded like a ghost story.

    Sounds like a story from the Cajun Chef Justin Wilson. I used to watch his show all the time.
