PRETTY IN PINK: Walking to the Prom

A former police officer relates an encounter told to him by a fellow policeman. He saw a girl dressed in a pink prom dress walking along the road, He gave her a ride. Then things get weird.

I received the following account:

"Hi, Lon. I really enjoy your blog but honestly, it scares the hell out of me sometimes. I wanted to relay a weird experience that was told to me a while back that I have only told to one other person, my wife.

When I was with the police department in a jurisdiction near Ames, Iowa in May of 1988 a deputy told me about an experience he had one evening while driving down an isolated country road. The area was new to him as he was covering for another off-duty officer. He told me it had just finished raining at about 6:30 pm when he drove past a cemetery on his right. About a quarter mile down the road he noticed a girl walking on the side of the road. He stopped his cruiser to offer the girl a ride to wherever she was going. She accepted his offer and sat in the back seat during the ride. The deputy remembered how pretty she looked dressed in a beautiful pink prom gown. She explained she was on her way to her school prom and after about two miles down the road, asked to be let out on the dimly lit corner at an old filling station. He dropped her off and then proceeded down the road to continue his tour.

It was a dark evening and he got concerned about the girl's safety so he turned around and went back to where he had dropped her off but she was nowhere to be found. He passed the old abandoned filling station and continued back down the road to the cemetery and a small house located next to it. He parked his cruiser in the dirt driveway and knocked on the door. An old man answered the door and the police officer described what had happened and he had wondered if the girl possibly came to his house. The old man just smiled and said to come inside and he would explain.

It seems that the girl the deputy picked up that night, was killed on her way to her school prom back in the 1940s by a drunk driver. The old man stated that several times each May she walks down that same road trying to get to her prom. He took the deputy into the cemetery and showed him the girl's gravestone. After shaking off the shivers the deputy returned to his cruiser and began his tour again. He was driving on the same road but at the corner where the old filling station was located there was just an open field with trees. The deputy asked me to never tell anyone about this experience.

I no longer lives in the area but I have been told that the pretty girl still frequents the old country road searching for a ride to the prom." J

A near-death experience (NDE) is an extreme personal experience associated with death or impending death. The great majority of these experiences are positive and may encompass detachment from the body, feelings of levitation, total serenity, security, warmth, joy, review of major life events, the presence of light, and seeing dead relatives. When negative, such experiences may include sensations of anguish, distress, a void, devastation, and seeing frightening scenes.

I also associate the presence of the Angel of Death, as in the Islamic tradition, as a near-death event. The archangel Azrael, metaphorically, separates souls from their bodies using a scythe or sword. Many Judeo-Christian believers know the Angel of Death as the Grim Reaper, which was inspired by the high number of deaths attributed to the Black Death plagues in 14th-century Europe and Asia.

I have combined both death-related phenomena into this presentation since each offers a reflection of our future, and how it may affect our remaining life.

Please feel free to comment on the accounts and let me know your opinions.
