The TV crew was filming in the Triad last August. Several locals were interviewed.<\/p>\n<p>The legend goes a little like this: A man is driving through Jamestown. He sees a young woman near the underpass and asks her if she needs a ride. She gets in and they head to her home in High Point. When they get there, she mysteriously disappears. Worried, the man gets out of his car and goes to a nearby house. An elderly woman answers the door. The driver tells the woman his story and the woman responds by saying her daughter was killed in a wreck near that underpass \u2013 and other drivers have told her the same story.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: right;\">Ghosts, Hauntings, &amp; Cheap Books: Sign Up For My Monthly <a title=\"Newsletter Sign Up\" href=\"http:\/\/annaabner.us7.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=6dd07ad403e6fc06fc2f8db7d&amp;id=f3de6d652f\" target=\"_blank\">Newsletter<\/a> Today.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: right;\">Enjoy this\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Free-Red-Plague-Sneak-Peek-PDF.pdf\">Free Red Plague Sneak Peek PDF<\/a>\u00a0full of excerpts and extras!<\/h5>\n<p>&lt;3 Anna<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Or, Beware Of Hitchhikers In North Carolina Click here to see the original article or keep reading for the full story. &nbsp; Ghostly Hitchhiker From Guilford County, NC Written by Joe Borlick, Feb. 2015 JAMESTOWN, N.C. \u2014 The legend of a ghostly hitchhiker who is rumored to have haunted a Guilford County underpass is getting [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"Guilford County Ghostly Hitchhiker","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[73],"tags":[74,583],"class_list":["post-2565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-haunted-house","tag-ghost","tag-haunted-hitchhiker"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","views":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2Wkl2-Fn","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2565"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2568,"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565\/revisions\/2568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/annaabner.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
