Happy October listeners. All this month we're bringing you a special series we're calling true urban legends.

Every week will dissect one classic urban legend and the haunting true story that either inspired it or is

eerily similar. As an added surprise each new episode will be presented by a

different host including one with yours truly.

have to tune in each week to find out which tales we chose and the true stories behind every legend.

Due to the nature of this case, listener discretion is advised. This episode includes discussions of violence, abduction, kidnapping, and sexual assault of minors, rape and murder.

Consider this when deciding how and when you'll listen.

The place was practically a paranormal hot spot

gets under your skin. The tale of the demon trucker of Highway 666 who hunts

the cursed road in search of his next victim.

It was easy enough to block the stories from your thoughts during the daytime, but now

as your last dying headlight struggles to illuminate the pitch black road and a

blinding pair of halogen lights moves toward you accompanied by the blast of a deafening airhorn.
