several versions of the "vanishing hitchhiker" legend originate on highways between Little Rock and surrounding communities. Someone picks up a young gilr hitchhiking, usually on rainy nights, and when the driver gets to the designated house, she vanishes. The astounded driver goes to the house, only to be told that the ghost of the owner's daughter returns on the anniversary of her deth. The girl died at the spot where she was picked up. Highway 64, north of Little Rock is the stomping ground of another highway ghost, but this one is named Laura Starr Latta who died a month before her 20th birthday in an accident on the old road in 1899.HAUNTED PLACES, p.25.

1. Oh why do you have to make everything so dramatic"?
2. You are the champion of not dealing with your problems.
3. Idiots are fun. That's why every village wants one.
4. If you talk to God you're religious. If God talks to you, you're psychotic

Theres a couple of news articles around about one at the moment in England, a apparition that apparently waits near a bus shelter at weird times of the night and when anyone stops to offer it a lift or talk to it, it disappears. I will see if I can drag the links up again.

There seems to be a debate as to where the "vanishing hitchhiker" is a "paranormal event", ie; a haunting, or an example of another "urban legend". I'm oppen to either story.

True, there are huge numbers of stories of vanishing hitchhikers around the USA. I just wonder if there is some little bit of truth in it.
