Mystery Train

[edit]

Hello. This is a great article. About the vanishing hitchhiker in pop culture, I believe that the story reappears in the Jim Jarmusch movie Mystery Train, in which the hitchhiker is none other than Elvis Presley. Does anyone remember the details? Happy editing, Wile E. Heresiarch 16:26, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Also "in pop culture," the song "Laurie (Strange Things Happen)" by Dickey Lee. It gave me quite a chill when I heard it in my early teens before I knew of the urban legend. The article lacks a 'In Pop Culture" section and perhaps it is for the best. 162.89.0.47 (talk) 21:25, 25 March 2018 (UTC) Eric[reply]

Just thought that someone might wish to add information about similar occurrences in Japanese legend. Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 18:12, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
