Texas man blames ‘playful ghost’ for pushing cart into his Mustang
Coping with life can be hard enough, but dead people can still cause most of their problems. In Texas, for example, a “sly young ghost” recently pushed a shopping cart into a Ford Mustang, causing tens of thousands of dollars in damage. And the owner can only blame himself.
In case you lost it:
Fox News report that Coby Todd was on his way home from his job at a local supermarket when he had an encounter that can only be described as supernatural. A ghost grabbed a shopping cart lying in the parking lot and pushed it into Todd’s newly purchased Ford Mustang. Since there was no wind that day and another person was around to push the previously stationary car, there really is no other explanation.
The day before, Todd admitted he went ghost hunting at a house in a nearby town. While there, he senses a “boy” ghost that then follows him home. But Todd isn’t crazy. He said he wanted to go back home to talk to the child’s spirit again.

Unfortunately for Todd and his Mustang, the damage the child ghost did to his car is going to cost a small fortune to repair. Todd reportedly estimates it will take $25,000 to fix the dent in what appears to be the incredibly rare and valuable 2012 Mustang with a 3.7-liter V6. To make matters worse, he only recently bought the car, so he barely got to enjoy it before the mysterious spirit pushed a shopping cart into it.
(Update: Fox has since clarified that Todd believes his Mustang is worth $25,000, not that the ghost did $25,000 worth of damage with the shopping cart. We’re still skeptical of that valuation, but it’s entirely possible that’s what he paid.)
Sure, some may question the validity of his story, as well as the cost of the damage to what’s probably at best a $15,000 car, but we don’t see any reason to doubt him. How else would a shopping cart start moving on its own? And don’t say a gust of wind came after he got into his car because that’s even less believable than a mischievous child ghost.
