State Secrets: Vermont – The Maple Syrup Man
.
People in Vermont sometimes meet a little old man walking along a road miles from any town. He is always carrying a half gallon jug of maple syrup. He will attempt to hitch a ride. If he does, he will thank the driver and say his name is Tom and that he does not have far to go. He then falls quiet.
At some point a few minutes later, the driver realizes that Tom has disappeared, but that half gallon of maple syrup is still there. If they aren’t too spooked to try it when they get home, they will find it is the best they’ve ever had.
The SXU classifies Tom as a Class 2B Phantom Hitchhiker. Class 2 means he leaves something behind when he vanishes. The “B” indicates it is a good thing, not anything gory or frightening.

State Secrets: Virginia – The Backroad Boys
.
No state is free of teenaged idiots driving around dangerously fast on back roads, but in most cases, those teens aren’t dead and they don’t try to kill you.
The Backroad Boys are, or were, the Falker twins, Larry & Mace, and their buddies, Earl Kinson and Don Huckins. Back in the mid 1950s, they used to drive like hell all over the state, often running other cars off the road. Then, one night, somebody ran them off the road. They went 400 feet down a mountainside and hit a big tree. All four of them were killed.
Two years later, the first report of them being back came from a coal miner on his way home from work. Over the decades, they have killed 28 people and caused over 300 wrecks.
The SXU has assembled a new group of drivers and exorcists to team up and patrol the lonely roads. Sooner or later, they’ll find and banish those punks.
