The A75 Kinmount Straight

Near Annan, Dumfries and Galloway

Scotland's most haunted road, with figures that rush at passing cars.

In 1962 two brothers driving this stretch at night said a hen flew at their windscreen, followed by a screaming old woman, a man, animals and other strange figures rushing at the car before vanishing. Since then other drivers have reported phantom figures, carriages and people stepping into the road.
