Below are descriptions of three evil vehicles. Two of them are merely the fictional creations of popular artists; one is a car monster that has actually been reported. Can you Find the Fiend?

A: Known for targeting black victims, this spectral pick-up truck, possessed by the ghost of its racist owner, supposedly stalks the rural back roads of the American South.

B: The sought-after parts from this famous crashed automobile were transferred into other cars, all of which suffered brutal, deadly wrecks of their own.

C: This evil sedan is said to commit random hit and runs in the area surrounding a small Utah town. Legend states that a person targeted by the vehicle must take refuge in the local cemetery.

Answer AFTER THE JUMP… The correct answer is B.

After James Dean snapped his neck in a violent head-on collision, the remains of his brand new Porsche Spyder (which the actor had nicknamed “Little Bastard”) were bought by a used car dealer, who sold it to car designer George Barris, who intended to cannibalize and sell Little B’s parts. After rolling off the delivery truck and breaking Barris’ legs, Bastard’s dispersed components went on a wild, violent spree. A doctor who purchased the engine died in a fiery wreck. A doctor who purchased the transmission was seriously injured in a crash. A man who bought two of the tires and transplanted them onto his own vehicle was injured when both inner tubes simultaneously exploded. Forget that most of the purchasers were, themselves, ardent racers who frequently engaged in risky high-speed driving, and that the other parts of the car are wholly unaccounted for. Dean’s Porcshe was clearly infected by the evil ghost of death.

Statement a. described the racist truck from “666,” an episode of “Supernatural” that’s as tiresome as it is moronic. Give us believable villains. Like an ageist zeppelin or a log flume that hates Pollacks.

Statement c. described The Car from the 1977 horror film “The Car.” The Car is a mystery. Its doors don’t have handles. It’s allergic to consecrated ground. It murders indiscriminately. Some say it’s KITT’s father. Others say it probably has something to do with a mummy. Other others say it isn’t a car at all, but rather a disgraced firetruck reincarnated as a car in divine retribution for its horrific misdeeds. Still others say that, yes, it actually is a car. The only thing that’s known for certain is that it’s definitely a car, so the firetruck people are wrong.
