A friend and I were driving to Peoria, which is about an hour and a half away. There's no one around. It's one of those real clear nights. A warm summer night. It happened in June. Anyway, here we go. There is no one around us. 

Around 23: 45, if I remember correctly. We are coming. The speed is about 55 miles per hour. We're in the right lane. In the left lane, a green figure about seven feet (2.1 m) tall appears out of its own fog. Do you know what was on it? The cape! No face. I can't tell if he's fat or thin. And he stands in the left lane and doesn't move. Spreading his arms from side to side. It was the Grim Reaper! It was the only thing I could think of. 

I used to laugh at people who told me about Grim Reaper. When I thought it was the Grim Reaper and kept it to myself, my buddy says: What was that? And I thought of the Grim Reaper, and he said it out loud. 

And I looked at him with a serious face and said:

"Yes, it is." 

It was June summer time, and I will never forget it, as if it happened yesterday. The creature was at least seven feet tall. I never saw it again. I never want to see it again. But it was as real as you and I would be talking right now.

Summary:  “My buddy and I were on our way to Peoria which is about an hour and a half away. No one is around. It’s one of those real clear nights. Warm summer night. Happened in June. Anyway, we’re going along. Nobody around us. Around 11:45 at night, if I remember right. We’re driving. Going about 55 miles per hour. We’re in the right hand lane. In the left hand lane appears out of its own mist, a green figure about 7 feet tall. You know what it had on? A cape! With no face. Can’t tell if it’s fat or skinny. And it’s standing still in the left hand lane and it doesn’t budge. With its arms draped out side to side. It was the Grim Reaper! It was the only thing I could think of. I used to laugh at people who would tell me about the Grim Reaper. Right when I was thinking, that was the Grim Reaper and kept it to myself, my buddy says, What was that? And I thought Grim Reaper in my mind and he said it out loud. And I looked at him with a straight face and I said, Yeah, it was. That was the summer time in June and I’ll never forget it like it happened yesterday. That thing was at least seven feet tall. Never saw it again. Never want to see it again. But it was as real as you and I talking right now.”
