A LONG-time driver who regularly passes the Dilke Hospital during the night has the shivers after encountering what he believes is a ghost…twice!
Not wishing to be identified in case his employers worry about his state of mind, the man says he is sure there is something supernatural about a figure waiting in the road by the bus stop at the Dilke side of the road – only to vanish when the kind-hearted driver offered him a lift into Cinderford.
The first time it happened 18 months ago, knowing no bus was due, he drew in to offer the man a lift. The half-past midnight encounter was unsettling.
In other news…the management of the bus company has issued an order for random drug testing to be placed this week on current drivers…=P No seriously..this is a very interesting story..might look up and see if there is any information on an actual event that happened there. I do know that my grandfather drove a truck for years..he said that sometimes if he had been driving a while without a break, he would have moments where he thought he saw something that wasn’t there..that was when he knew it was time to pull over! But I don’t know if that would factor into this case or not..but it is an interesting story.
