@midnight_nightmare_files: My friends and I were driving home late one night when we decided to take a shortcut across an old bridge. It was almost completely abandoned. There were no other cars, no streetlights, and barely any cell service. About halfway across, my friend slammed on the brakes. “There’s someone standing in the road.” I looked through the windshield. Sure enough, there was a person standing in the middle of the bridge. They were facing away from us. We waited for them to move. They didn’t. My friend honked the horn. The person slowly turned around. But they didn’t move toward the side of the road. They just stood there, staring at our car. We locked the doors. Then the person started walking toward us. My friend immediately put the car in reverse. But when I looked behind us, there was nobody there. We backed up several feet. Then we heard a loud knock on the back window. Everyone screamed. My friend slammed the car into drive and took off. We didn’t stop until we were miles away. The next morning, we searched the bridge online. We found an article about someone who had died there years earlier after being hit by a car. The article said witnesses claimed the person had been standing in the middle of the bridge when the accident happened. We thought it was just a creepy coincidence. Until my friend checked his dashcam. The footage showed us driving across the bridge. There was no one standing in front of the car. But at the exact moment we heard the knock… the camera showed someone sitting in our back seat. And none of us had seen them get in. #fyp #scary #viral #scarytiktoks #scarystories
