A paranormal investigator unveils the story of a local "phantom hitchhiker" haunting Coastal Road near Southport.
The town of Southport is a much-loved destination for those seeking an escape from the hustle and bustle of city centres, boasting miles of beautiful and expansive beaches. But its coastline might harbour a presence far more sinister than your typical beach-goer.
An incident dating back from 1983 recounts the chilling sighting of a ‘road ghost’ on Coastal Road between Ainsdale and Southport in Merseyside. Dr Rob Gandy, a Visiting Professor at the Liverpool Business School at Liverpool John Moores University, has unveiled this story as part of his side project documenting paranormal encounters on UK roads.
