To the expatriates, a jeepney is a public transportation in the Philippines that were originally made from the remnants of US military jeeps during World War II.
Residents living within the vicinity of the U.P. Diliman campus find it safer to ride a jeepney rather than a taxi when going home late. It was about midnight when a lady student took her ride home. She noticed that the driver would make eerie glances at her through the rearview mirror and would turn around occasionally. To compound her woes, the driver was not traversing the regular route and she was in unfamiliar territory. The girl feared for her life and womanly dignity and a lot of negative thoughts entered her mind. In time the driver was back on his normal course and she was dropped off at her spot.
Before leaving the driver told her to burn her clothes when she reaches home. The driver told her that she was headless then he saw her in the rearview mirror. He did not follow the normal route for fear of her untimely demise if he did.
When she reached home her clothes were burned as quickly as she could. From the news she learned that the driver died a few days after the incident, the warning was for the driver, not hers.
Every storyteller will vouch that his narration is true based on actual experience and that’s why they are so popular because you can never really tell whether they are true or not.
