Of a girl who was hitch hiking and a some drivers stop to pick her up and when they would arrive to her house she would disappear. When the drivers would knock on the door to ask about the girl and they would look up on the wall and notice a pic of the girl and they would say that's the girl i picked up and the woman at the door would say that's my daughter and she died some yrs ago. Is this true?

There are dozens of this particular urban legend.
A dozen miles outside of Baltimore, the main road from New York (Route Number One) is crossed by another important highway. It is a dangerous intersection, and there is talk of building and underpass for the east-west road. To date, however, the plans exist only on paper.
Dr. Eckersall was driving home from a country-club dance late one Saturday night. He slowed up for the intersection, and was surprised to see a lovely young girl, dressed in the sheerest of evening gowns, beckoning him for a lift. He jammed on his brakes, and motioned her to climb into the back seat of his roadster. "All cluttered up with golf clubs and bags up here in front," he explained. "But what on earth is a youngster like you doing out here all alone at this time of night?"
"It's too long a story to tell you now," said the girl. Her voice was sweet and somewhat shrill -- like the tinkling of sleigh bells. "Please, please take me home. I'll explain everything there. The address is ___ North Charles Street. I do hope it's not too far out of your way."
The doctor grunted, and set the car in motion. He drove rapidly to the address she had given him, and as he pulled up before the shuttered house, he said, "Here we are." Then he turned around. The back seat was empty!
"What the devil?" the doctor muttered to himself. The girl couldn't possibly have fallen from the car. Nor could she simply have vanished. He rang insistently on the house bell, confused as he had never been in his life before. At long last the door opened. A gray-haired, very tired-looking man peered out at him.
"I can't tell you what an amazing thing has happened," began the doctor. "A young girl gave me this address a while back. I drove her here and . . ."
"Yes, yes, I know," said the man wearily. "This has happened several other Saturday evenings in the past month. That young girl, sir, was my daughter. She was killed in an automobile accident at that intersection where you saw her almost two years ago . . ."

My guess is that it happened at least once, because every rumor or myth has a kernal of truth in it.
Considering that I have been in several haunted houses, I will not tell anybody that it is impossible.
(My current house has had some spectral activity, which might give credibility to the theory that places are not haunted, but rather people are.)

I saw this story on thediscovery channel, or the History channel.
Maybe it was that truth or myth show...
ANYWAY yes, that one is true.
The lady was in an accident or something and yeah, people see her walking like in a white dress, pick her up and she is gone whrn they get to her house.
OOOOOOHHHHH I am getting CHILLS all over.

That's only a story - man! But If you want to have proof, video tape the girl and take it to a TV show. This could be a gold mine If you're willing to do it.
Good luck......

I hadn't heard that but it's obviously an urban legend. I'm pretty certain it's not true, but it would be pretty cool if it was.
