Story

EG: “Has there been a time where you witnessed and unexplainable occruence?”

CDL: ” Hmm. not directly, but my dad has told me a couple stories. Well, here’s one of them… One night my dad and his friend decided to go out and party. Oh, and the pueblo we are from in Guatemala was a lot of open fields… so you can imagine how dark it would look at night. As they were heading there, they uh were driving through a lonely road… and suddenly they both see a woman on the side of the road. Umm they both tell each other: “Should we give her ride?”, and the quickly agreed. So… um they uh stop and ask her if she needs a ride, but she never says a word to them and just gets in the car and sits between the two. When she was in the car with them there was a point where they both got chills but ignored it. When the lady got off the car, she did not say a thing and they just saw here walk into an open field where at some point she uh disappeared. After the this they both started talking about it and my dad told his friend that he saw the women facing him the entire time, and uh my dad’s friend he saw the women facing my dad the entire ride. So… uh… both of them never saw her face.”

Informants Opinion

EG: “Do you think it was a women’s spirit that appeared that night?”

CDL: ” Oh yeah for sure… Uh I do think it was a ghost because they both never saw her face thinking that they both did. Things like this would happen commonly in my hometown because we lived in open fields, so there was always lot so of empty dark areas. I am not sure exactly what the motive of the spirit was, but I am glad she never harmed them.”

Final Thoughts

I can agree with the informant that this was a ghost. Being in lonely dark areas at night opens the opportunity that a ghost may appear. This story seems to be a common one because I have heard of people seeing women with long dark hair in a white dress in the middle of lonely roads, or just women in general asking for a ride. It is possible that this spirit may have died by the roads, and he spirit still isn’t at rest, yet which is why she appeared upon the informant’s father and friend.
