Description	John Sender's transcribed variant of the Vanishing Hitchhiker urban legend as collected by Chris LiBaire. In this account, two boys see a girl walking alone in a prom dress and offer her a ride home. When they get to her house, the girl goes around to the back of the house and disappears, so the boys go to the door to make sure she got inside. They describe her to the woman who answers the door, and the woman informs that the girl is her daughter who passed away two years prior.
