The only two that come to mind are from the Outer Banks in NC. The one that walks along the shoreline with a lantern just before a hurricane and the one that is the ghost of Blackbeard in Ocracoke. Since I am originally from NC (chapel hill) I don't know anymore.
My brother and I were driving down one of the old back roads in our area when we both saw a woman's purse in the middle of the road. Thinking quick I slammed on the brakes and we got out to get it. Well, we searched all around but, never found it! Maybe it was a ghost purse left by the girl whom was said, to be hitching rides in the area that would vanish once she got in the back seat of the car. I don't know.
