The Hitchhiker on the Mountain Road | A Scary Horror Story

Daniel was driving home at 2:17 a.m. when he saw the stranger standing alone on the mountain road.

It was freezing. There were no houses for miles.

Still, Daniel stopped.

The stranger climbed into the passenger seat and remained silent for several minutes.

Then he whispered:

“Whatever you do… don’t look in the back seat.”

Daniel’s heart stopped.

Because at that exact moment…

something knocked from behind him.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Daniel's hands tightened around the steering wheel.

“What?”

The stranger stared straight ahead.

“Just keep driving.”

Daniel tried to laugh, but then he heard it.

Tap.

He looked at the rear-view mirror.

Nothing.

Tap. Tap.

Something was knocking against the rear window.

The stranger whispered,

“It's awake.”

Daniel's heart began pounding.

“What is?”

The stranger slowly turned toward him.

“Me.”

Daniel slammed on the brakes.

The passenger seat was empty.

But when Daniel looked into the rear-view mirror again...

someone was sitting in the back seat.

And he was smiling.
