They say it's the hairy hands.
I laughed, but Hank didn't join in.
The hairy hands?
Disembodied hands, he said, lowering his voice.
Come out of nowhere and grab the wheel or the handlebars if you're on a bike.
They force you off the road.
Legend has it they even made horse-drawn carriages crash back in the day.
And people believe this, I asked incredulously.
They do, enough that most won't take that road after dark.
You shouldn't either.
I rolled my eyes but thanked him for the warning.
Hank had grown up here, and I figured he was just repeating one of those small-town campfire stories.
I didn't believe in curses or ghost stories, especially ones about phantom hands.
That changed a few weeks later.
It was a Wednesday night, and I'd gone to visit a friend in the next town over.
The drive back was supposed to be easy, but I'd left later than planned, and the interstate was closed for construction.
My GPS, smug and indifferent, rerouted me down Briar's Bend.
The name didn't register until I was already on it.
The road was darker than I expected.
My headlights lit the asphalt ahead, but the trees on either side crowded in so tightly they looked like walls.
