Show Notes

Stop me if you heard this one before…You pick up a hitchhiker, only for them to leave something of theirs behind. You go to drop it back off to them, only to find out they have been dead for 5 years. This is a classic ghost story trope known as The Vanishing Hitchhiker. This week, Bob is joined by Pat from Ghostly Podcast and looks at three if these tales that take place all over the world. We ask if these stories are just stories or if there is some truth behind them. We discuss, briefly, several stories from around the world, including one of America’s most famous ghost stories…Resurrection Mary.
