10 Archduke Franz Ferdinand's Phaeton
If you don’t know who the Archduke Franz Ferdinand's is then you should play more world
war one shooters.
It was his assassination that started world war one and that assassination took place
in this car.
It was just that he was assassinated in the car, it was that he avoided an assassination
attempt earlier that day and he was on his way to hospital to comfort the people who
were harmed in the crossfire.
On his way there one of the assassins had stopped in a café to get something to eat,
saw the Archduke passing by and well started world war one.
Not only that the car was involved in 6 accidents and 13 deaths.
Some people were killed in crashes only months after owning the car.
9 John F. Kenndey’s Limousine ss-100-x
The whole world was stunned on the morning of November 22nd, 1963 as President John F.
Kenndey was assassinated on television.
Something super strange about this navy blue Lincoln is it was upgraded with two hundred
thousand dollars worth of features none of which were making it bullet proof or putting
some sort of protective cover over top of it.
However after Kennedy was killed the limo was kept in service, because you can’t really
blame the car, and was give all sort of protective measures like titanium plating, bullet resistant
glass and a perminate bullet proof roof.
I guess hindsight is 20/20.
8 The Ghost crash
December 11 2002, Police start getting phone call after phone call about a set of headlights
running off the road on Britain’s A3 highway.
Crashes on a highway aren’t unusual but people are stopping and can’t seem to find
a car anywhere.
So police go to investigate and they find no recent crashes but Vauxhall Astra that
was covered in vegetation.
It seems that the car had been there for at least five months.
So why were people seeing headlights driving off into the ditch that night.
My guess is who’s ever ghost that was, was tired of hanging out on the side of the highway
and wanted to go to funeral home so they could party with some other ghost.
7 Ghost Bus
It was a foggy night in London 1934.
A man was driving normally when suddenly he swerved as if he was trying to avoid something.
He crashed into a wall and was instantly killed, witnesses said there was nothing in his way
and no reasoning for the man to have swerved off the road so aggressively.
But legend talks of a ghost bus that roams the roads, it’ll appear out of nowhere and
look as if it's going to crash right into you.
It’s said to be a big red double decker bus that appears on the road around 1:15 am.
People who've said they've seen the bus say it'll me coming right for but after it passes
if you check your rearview mirror there will be nothing there.
It could be a real ghost bus or it could another reason to not do drugs.
6 The Black Volga
During the 60s and 70s, people throughout russia and eastern europe were terrorized
about the myth of The Black Volga.
The Volga limo was the most expensive car in russia at the time and they were specifically
designed to hide the identity of the persons inside the car.
They had tinted windows and if that wasn’t enough you could pull out curtains so no one
could see in.
You could that movie trope when you see someone creeping you from a distance and you quickly
shut the drapes.
Clip 2 Because this car had such a secretive tone
and was priced so high rumors started speculating about who could be driving one.
Some people would say it was priests or politicians, other people said it could be the devil himself.
The conspiracy theories go so far that some say they saw kids get snatched into the car
and people who touched the car would die within 24 hours.
None of these myths have been proven, so some of these stories might be true or it might
just be a game of telephone that got out of hand.
5 Renault Megane
It’s 2004 in cape town south africa and you hear a roaring sound coming from outside
your window.
You pop out to go see what’s going on and you see a Jumping car?
Apparently nine people saw this car start up on its own and start jumping backwards
until it crashed into a fence, so they called the guys from top gear to have a look.
No they called the police.
When they police arrived they didn’t believe them at all, they probably thought everyone
was on drugs.
Then the car started up on its own again and jumped backwards into a tree.
Upon further inspection it seemed that the car had a rusty starter cable which was causing
it to start up all on its own, but what was making it jump?
4 Bonnie & Clydes Ford Deluxe
The original ride or die couple.
Imagine meeting the one, I mean THE ONE, like they’re so much the one that the two of
you roam around america during the great depression robbing banks, killing cops and looking on
point while you’re doing.
Bonnie and Clyde are two of america's most notorious criminals and somehow managed to
keep a relationship healthy while being on the most wanted list.
The two would travel around in a stole 1934 ford deluxe and on may 23rd 1934 it would
be their final resting place.
They were ambushed by police and more than 100 shots were fired into this bad boy.
Now what happened to the car, well in a way nothing.
They car was kept exactly the way it was when Bonnie and Clyde died in it, with every last
bullet hole.
You can go see the car now at whiskey pete's hotel and casino in nevada.
The reason that it’s on our cursed cars list isn’t just that two people were turned
into swiss cheese inside of it but its said when people take pictures next to the car,
sometimes ghostly figures will appear in the photograph.
3 Le Mans disaster
Now this curse isn’t an ongoing horror that torments people for almost 100 years, like
the chicago cubs goat curse.
But this was a massive disaster, one of the worst car wrecks the world of racing has ever
seen.
It was 1955 and driver Lance Macklin was taking his turn out of the pits back onto the track
in his Austin Healey 100s, I’m picturing him rolling on to a racetrack with a pair
of motorized heelys.
Mike Hawthorne was coming in hot in a Jaguar D-type and barely misses Macklin.
Macklin swerves and tries to steady himself and ends up in the left lane and he doesn't
see Pierre Levegh flying in at 150 miles per hour.
Pierre hits the back of Macklin's sick Healey and goes flying into the crowd killing 81
people injuring 120.
I wouldn’t worry about that happening today becasuse they have those nice big nets at
nascar so you can get a neck sunburn and liquid cheese without dying
2 James Dean’s 550 spyder
What’s a good way to be considered cursed?
Kill one of the most beloved actors of an era.
James Dean was an amercian heart throb and badass who died tragically at the age of 24
in a car wreck.
This bad luck racer was nicknamed little bastard, if you’re going to ride in something everyday
maybe give it a nicer name.
But it wasn’t just James Dean that this car tormented.
After his death the car was purchased by and brought shop for repairs, it then slip off
the lift and broke a mechanics leg.
After this parts of the car were installed in two different race cars, one driver died
and one was seriously injured.
Some people tried to steal the cars body and were both injured, this car doesn’t even
like thieves, it’s on no one's side.
The car eventually disappeared mysteriously while being transported.
I’m sure it was stolen, the car that killed James Dean is probably worth millions and
might have his sexy ghost in it.
1 1964 Dodge 330
This car has been named the most evil car in America, it's more evil than the PT cruiser
or that man eating Zamboni that I just made up.
This car actually has a pretty wild story, It was originally a police cruiser and all
three officers that were issued the car eventually committed suicide after killing their families.
A car can’t be evil this is for sure a coincidence.
After it served it’s time as a cop car it was sold to an old man, probably because he
was too old to have a family to massacre.
Nothing happened to him but several people tried to vandalize the car and it didn’t
end well for them.
One of them was killed by an 18 wheeler, a few more were decapitated and 4 others were
killed by lighting strikes.
Dude when I die I want to come back and an evil car that can summon lightning.
The car was later destroyed ant the pieces were scattered so the car could no longer
summon gods wrath.
But apparently someone bought all the pieces and reassembled the beast.
A part of me wants someone to give this motorized murderer a self driving upgrade just to see
what happens.
Leave out the talking GPS though, it’s an evil car from 1964 it probably has a lot of
racist slurs to say.
That is our list!
