Kids, turn off all the lights, get into your beds and listen here carefully - it’s horror story time and it involves a large parking lot and a Mercedes-Benz that sits there for over two years.
The Broadway Plaza car park in Birmingham, UK, shields a rather dark story no one knows telling for sure. Deep in the underground parking sits an old black Mercedes-Benz C Class that racked up £14,235 in parking fees over time. Considering the current prices, the car has been there for about three years.

Dust on the car is so thick you can’t properly see inside, but pull the handle and you’ll discover the door is unlocked. Yet, nothing is missing from the cabin and the authorities actually found some documents containing the owner’s information. Still, he’s nowhere to be found, not even the police could trace him so far.

Despite the odd circumstances, the vehicle has a clean record. It hasn’t been stolen or involved in illegal activities as far as the authorities know. There are no blood stains inside either.

There’s one single clue left - the rear axle is broken and the car can’t drive away no matter what. Also the reason it's supported by the cordon at the rear. Could this be the reason it’s still there? Why did it take the authorities three years to decide towing it away now?

Thousands other motorists driving by the dead Merc have probably been asking the same questions. Some even claim the owner could be dead and the car might be haunted since not even a rascal dared stealing stuff inside.
