Ghosts
Parascience presented a discussion on the Roger Lyon show on Radio Merseyside covering the subject of Road Ghosts and Phantom Hitchhikers. We have some pictures here of local places where you may encounter one of these apparitions. So be careful who you give a life to at night.......!
This stretch of road in Brimstage has been the setting for many sightings of a phantom hitchhiker throughout modern times, although appearances peaked in the 70's and 80's. The young female has been seen late at night and on several occasions has entered the car before disappearing. Her tale is frequently linked with the Dibbinsdale Bridge phantom.
These pictures show the Dibbinsdale Bridge in Bromborough, close to an ancient castle and manor house. The white lady is statistically the most frequently reported of all Cheshire ghosts, and the legend tells of a young novice nun who fell in love with a monk from a nearby monastery. The romance was doomed to fail and her tormented spirit haunts the site of her death.
This site is in a low lying valley and is frequently the site of low lying mists and fogs, appearing in a car headlights the mist can frequently take on ethereal and ghostly shapes.
Whitehouse Lane is the site of a phantom cyclist who has been seen in recent years pedaling along the Brimstage to Heswall road. Many motorists have passed him only to see him vanish as they look in their rear view mirror.
