ABOUT THIS EPISODE
A lonely road. Thick morning fog. One horrifying collision.
Driving home after an overnight shift, Brett encounters something no driver ever wants to see—a teenager standing in the middle of an empty road. But what begins as a tragic accident soon leads him into one of South Jersey's most disturbing local legends.
Perfect for fans of ghost stories, haunted roads, urban legends, and atmospheric supernatural horror.
Diane Arrelle, the pen name of South Jersey writer Dina Leacock, has sold more than 400 short stories and has three published books including Just A Drop In The Cup, a collection of short-short stories and Seasons On The Dark Side, her collection of horror stories. She is the editor of the anthologies Crypt Gnats: Horror You’ve Been Itching to Read, WhoDunit, Trees and A Little Fantasy Everywhere.
Retired from being director of a municipal senior citizen center, she is now co-owner of Jersey Pines Ink LLC. She resides with her sane husband and her insane cat on the edge of the New Jersey Pine Barrens (home of the Jersey Devil).
