Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 17 Oct, 06:01 · Archive
The B1249 in East Riding of Yorkshire has been named among the UK's most haunted roads by DiscoverCars.com, which compiled a list of haunted roads across the UK and Europe. Reports describe a 'nightmarish werewolf creature' said to inhabit the stretch.
The most well-known sighting dates to the 1960s, when Charles Christian documented an account of a lorry driver whose vehicle was destroyed by a 'red-eyed hairy creature' that smashed his windscreen. Further sightings have been reported since, including one in 2016 where a driver described seeing a Bigfoot-like figure.
Aleksandrs Buraks, head of growth at DiscoverCars.com, said that as Halloween approaches, it is a good time to learn about the allegedly haunted roads nearby and their folklore. He noted that there is a substantial amount of ghost stories and urban legends across the UK that feature in the list.
Buraks advised drivers to use caution when driving at night, particularly on roads where they feel uneasy or distracted.
