The GoldenEagle- The Most Evil Car in America

The GoldenEagle- The Most Evil Car in America

Recently my family and I watched the 1983 movie, Christine by Stephen King and directed by John Carpenter to get into the Halloween spirit this year. As a kid, that movie made me afraid of my grandpa’s 1978 Lincoln Continental Town Car, afraid it would gobble my brother and me while waiting for my grandpa to emerge from the convenient store. Over the years I got over it, but not before scaring my brother with stories about grandpa’s car crushing him if he didn’t leave me alone. After watching the movie, I wanted to learn a little bit about the car and movie.
Christine is a 1958 Plymouth Fury that made more money than the unknown actors of the movie. 15% of the movie's budget was spent on the 23 cars the film-makers acquired by placing ads across the country. There are only three mint condition Christines remained after the movie wrapped up and used for promotion and a fourth, save from the wrecker, was sold to a man. All of this got me thinking, “Could there be a “real life” Christine out in the world claiming lives in mysterious ways?” Turns out there is.

The GoldenEagle 

The GoldenEagle is a Limited Edition 1964 Dodge 330 that is labeled the Most Evil Car in America. It’s current owner, Wendy Allen tells the history of this ominous vehicle as originally being purchased as a police car for Old Orchard Beach, ME. It was then sold to a local man after all three officers to ever drive the vehicle died in bizarre murder-suicides, killing their families and themselves. It then wound up in Allen’s family's position. During this time, the Dodge claimed the lives of 14 people according to Allen. But it turns out the death toll is higher than that. In the 80s and 90s members of different local churches vandalized the car and Allen claims all 32 people died under strange circumstances, 4 of them being hit by lightning. Children became victims as well. Two children, one in the 60s and one in the 80s, were hit by cars and flung across the street to land either under the bumper or on the hood of the GoldenEagle. More recently, after being dared to touch the Dodge, a kid murdered his family and the family dog then burned down the home. In 2010, another church group took it upon themselves to rid the evil car by stealing the car, chopped it up, and distributed it to various junkyards. They believed a demon was living in the car. After Allen searched and asked for help from the internet to retrieve the scattered parts, the church group labeled her, “The Sea Witch of Old Orchard Beach,” and claims she uses the car to cast death spells. After all this, the GoldenEagle never turned on the Allen family as violently as it did to these unlucky folks.

I Think He Forgot Something

I Think He Forgot Something So this is funny. But according to nwitimes.com , a 33-year-old suspect made his getaway after robbing a convenience store but didn't get far. The guy had robbed a LaCrosse gas station after he informed the store clerk he had a gun. The suspect, Sean Harris, made off with food, beverage items, and cigarettes… but no money! I guess the guy was super hungry since the report stated he had a blood alcohol level higher than the limit for legally operating a motor vehicle. Harris fled the gas station, with whatever he could carry, when an Indiana State Police trooper came upon the getaway car. Not in some crazy high-speed chase, or from using some awesome spy satellite that Vin Diesel uses in all his action films. NOPE! Harris’ vehicle ran out of gas. That’s right, he forgot to steal some fuel before making off with his goodies. The Indiana State Police trooper found his vehicle stopped along a two-lane highway. Harris is being held in jail without bail.

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck?

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck? Pickup trucks are both functional and fun to drive. Many people choose to own pickup trucks because they have the capacity to haul most things such as campers, travel trailers, other cars, horse and cattle trailers, just to name a few. They also offer space for hauling many different things in the bed. This is convenient because no one wants to put a bale of hay or a deer carcass inside the cab of a vehicle even if it does fit. Trucks not only offer functionality but are also just fun to drive. They are high off of the ground and can typically travel places other low vehicles cannot go. They are great for off-road driving. They are also suitable for what is a typical Texas country tradition, mudding. Who doesn’t want to find a good mud hole and bust some 180’s and sling mud everywhere? How Do You Choose A Pickup Truck For You? Not everyone wants a big, high off the ground pickup truck. Some people want a pickup truck that offers a spaciou
