What We Dig For

One hundred and thirty million people take road trips every year. Fifteen thousand four hundred of them are never seen again. Have you heard the story of The Passenger that's been circulating online lately? A young couple set out on a van life trip, but a few nights in, they came across a brutal car accident on the side of the road. I'm not talking about a typical crash. Something about this was off, and there's one detail that keeps coming up. The car they found had three deep scratches carved into the side, not dents, scratches. They stopped, they saw it, and then they left. But here's where things got strange. Not long after, creepy things start happening. They began to feel like they weren't alone in the van, like something followed them from that road. People online have started connecting it to something they're calling The Passenger. Supposedly, it attaches itself to anyone who encounters it and marks their car with three scratches, and once that happens, it doesn't let go. If these reports are true, this couple didn't just witness something on that highway, they carried it with them. From André Øvredal, director of Autopsy of Jane Doe, comes Passenger, only in theaters May 22nd. Get tickets now.
