Description

There is another nearby road where another unexplained happening has been reported, this time a little less worrying as people are not slamming on their brakes but there is a phantom hitch-hiker near the Lower Bell public house on the same road, the mysterious entity spends a ride towards Maidstone putting the worlds to right with their drive before vanishing right out of the seat. Mr Ian Sharpe unfortunately fell victim to a disturbing occurrence that involved the spirit of one of the victims that perished in that violent wreck running in front of his bus.

Just outside the picturesque city of Bath, there’s a road known as ‘Sally in the Wood’ - which superstitious locals give a wide berth. The film also contains scenes based on reports of a young woman appearing suddenly in the road at night. So is this road haunted or is it just that there’s a tragedy there and unusual events have transposed themselves around to fit it? The story often extends to account that the driver continued to their ghostly passenger’s destination out of curiosity and are greeted by the spectre’s family members, who tearfully state that their child was killed in a car accident on the very same stretch of road the driver was traversing when he was greeted by the tragic spirit and that they have had people misled by their child’s shadow for decades. Mostly, however, the ghosts of Bluebell Hill have provided a timely lifeline for generations of local journalists on a slow news day.Either they're not happening, or it is a function of the reports not coming to our attention due to lack of press/media interest, and/or the staff of the Kent Messenger who knew of my work and exchanged info in the early 90s having all moved on).

All she wanted was a lift, so I jumped out and opened the rear of the ambulance doors, and she got in. I was so scared to look underneath, but I knelt down and looked straight through – there was nothing there. Also another incident at the same house there was a small cupboard above the boiler cupboard in me and my brother's room I must have been 8 and my brother 12 neither of us could reach this cupboard it was about 6.

In 1990, an “old hag dressed in black” was spotted on a dark road around 3am, out of the Lower Bell part of the village to Aylesford.

Gary Budden is co-founder of independent publisher Influx Press and assistant fiction editor at Ambit magazine. It is said that the ghosts of three women who were killed in a car accident on this road, one of whom was due to get married, still haunt it. The film, which is not yet scheduled for release, will be dedicated to "those who have lost their lives on that treacherous hill". Personally i don't believe in ghosts bit the idea of the lady is linked to a very tragic historical event that happened in the town https:// www.Suzanne was on her way back from her hen night when her Ford Cortina spun out of control on the A229 at Blue Bell Hill, colliding with a Jaguar heading the other way. Others say they have seen Roman soldiers either walking or marching up and down on the road which follows, in some sections, the routes used by legionnaires 2,000 years ago in 55BC.

There is another report earlier than that of 1992 with Ian Sharpe too, in 1974 a man named Maurice Goodenaugh came to the local police to say that he had left a blanket on a woman he had hit and had begged for help. He said: “Hardly any ghostly incidents actually occur near where the crash took place and not all the victims died instantly. From spirit brides who hitch a lift and ghostly children who disappear, even the busiest roads have their fair share of mysterious sightings.

The reports began in 1968, and usually involved a young girl (possibly a bride to be or a bridesmaid who was killed at the foot of the hill in 1965), flagging down cars and asking for a lift. I found it along with your post after finishing the book with my kids and looking up where the standing stones in the book actually are. A Kentish A-road could be the most haunted in Britain with more than 50 reported sightings of the spectre of a tragic bride who died on the eve of her wedding.
