A late-night drive on an almost empty stretch of the M6 should have been uneventful.But just past Wigan, one driver noticed a woman standing alone on the hard shoulder. No broken-down car. No hazard lights. No attempt to wave for help. Just a still figure in a light-coloured coat, facing the road as traffic passed in the dark.As the car drew level, she turned and looked directly at the driver - not frightened, not pleading, but waiting. A moment later, she was gone. No movement. No trace. Nothing visible in the mirror but the empty hard shoulder behind.In this short Fright Bites encounter, a seemingly ordinary motorway sighting becomes something far harder to explain, especially when a colleague later mentions the stories attached to that same stretch of road: reports of a woman seen near the place where a fatal accident was said to have happened years before.A quiet, chilling account of late-night roads, roadside ghosts, and the unnerving feeling that some places hold onto the final moments of those who never made it home.Enjoyed the episode?

Fright Bites - EP07 - Hard Shoulder tells the unsettling story of a late-night drive along the M6 near Wigan, where a lone figure standing on the hard shoulder became something far more disturbing. Just after midnight, with the motorway almost empty, a driver noticed what appeared to be a middle-aged woman in a light-coloured coat standing by the barrier. There was no car, no hazard lights, and no sign of distress — just a silent figure watching the traffic pass.As the driver slowed and passed, the woman turned and looked directly at them, her expression calm, almost expectant. Moments later, checking the rear-view mirror revealed nothing. The hard shoulder was empty. No movement. No sign anyone had been there. Weeks later, a colleague revealed that reports of a woman seen on that exact stretch of motorway had circulated for years, linked to a fatal accident where a stranded motorist had been struck and killed.This Fright Bites episode explores a classic roadside apparition — a fleeting encounter that leaves more questions than answers. If you're drawn to true paranormal stories, ghost sightings, mysterious phenomena, and scary stories rooted in real experiences, Hard Shoulder delivers a quiet but deeply unsettling encounter on a deserted motorway.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/haunted-uk-podcast-ghosts-paranormal-and-the-unexplained--6759967/support.
