730: Highway 16 – by Caitlin Marceau

The Wicked Library wishes to thank our Season Seven partner, RODE Microphones, for their support. All in house vocals are recorded exclusively on RODE Microphones.

Caitlin Marceau returns to The Wicked Library with this dark tale.

STORY:

When a young woman stops to help an old man on an empty highway, not all is as it seems. The man is looking for more than assistance and what he needs is more than she's willing to give.

The story is based upon the Highway of Tears, a Canadian highway from British Columbia to Alberta. The bodies of 19 First Nation's women have been discovered along the stretch of road, but more than 40 women are said to have been taken from Highway 16 over the years.
