This is a real ghost stories online extra.

That's Brandy.

It's calling from Austin area, Texas.

I've told a few times.

I want to start by apologizing for any background noise

because I'm driving home some work.

So I have a story I want to tell.

It just happened.

Oh, it happened on Valentine's Day, actually, this most

recent one. And it wasn't necessarily a ghost story, per se, but it felt spiritual in nature.

Let me explain. Okay, so I commute to work every day. I drive an hour each way. I work night,

so I leave at about 9 p.m.

And I drive down a highway that I call the highway of death because at any given time,

there's dead animals anywhere, dead deer, the armadillo, dead skunk, you name it, it's there. And

I live in a rural part of the country, so I have

lots of wildlife. Well, one night I was driving to work, and I hit an armadillo. I was devastated.

I cried pretty much the whole way to work. And then even a week later one night I'm driving and I

this owl flies right into the guard on the front of my truck luckily I don't speed down that

highway because I am an animal freak and I I just don't want to hit anything.

So luckily I wasn't going too fast, but I definitely hit the owl.

I ended up turning around to check on it to see if maybe, you know, I could save it.

And I could see her in the road.
