The Haunted Car

The hour is late, the streetlights have gone out, and it isn't the safest part of town on the best of nights. Jim the hitchhiker wants nothing more than to get out of there as soon as possible.

Suddenly, a pair of headlights appears through the misty gloom, and begin approaching him, silently and slowly. When the car reaches Jim, it stops momentarily. Without thinking, he jumps in and slams the door shut.

As the car starts moving again, Jim reaches over to thank the driver, when he realizes- *there is no one sitting in the driver's seat!*

Jim is paralyzed with fear. The car is moving at a steady pace, silently and driverlessly. As the car approaches a bend in the road, a pale hand reaches in through the window and twists the steering wheel.

The car proceeds through the empty streets in this manner. After a while, Jim manages enough wits and strength to fling the door open, jump out and run away from the car, not looking back once.

He finds a bar still open, and quickly orders a drink to calm his nerves. When questioned by the patrons on his shaken complexion, he tells them the chilling story.

As the crowd murmurs fearfully about the haunted car, the door slams open and two sweaty, tired looking men walk in. They their eyes scan the room. Suddenly, one of them taps the other on the shoulder, and exclaims:
"Hey, that's the asshole who jumped into our car when we were pushing it!"
