Highway Scare

So, I have limited experience with paranormal things. Either I'm not receptive to it, or I've just been really lucky for most of my life. However this particular story still lingers with me, and I hope it's believeable, cause I think I'm crazy for even seeing it.

There's a highway west of my home. It stretches into the desert mountains for miles and miles without a single streetlamp or house. Winding and dipping over the land, it's been around since before I was born (though granted, it hasn't been that long - I'm only 23). My girlfriend and I like to drive on the highway at night, when the moon is dark and the stars are at their brightest. We'd dance in the street, pretending we knew how to waltz. It was safe to do so, no one would drive in the mountains at 3am.

One night we were driving back from stargazing, the road black and empty before us. The only light came from pale yellow headlights, illuminating pieces of sharp desert fauna zipping past. I was in the passenger seat, I guess that's why I remember so much.

I saw it first, the figure on the roadside.

Its body was human, and it walked with a slow, shuffling gait. I could tell by the way it swayed at the border of our light. As we got closer, more details became clear. A scarf wrapped around their head, and they were hunched over a stroller with blankets inside. A strange woman, person? Just wandering through the desert in the middle of the night. As we passed, they looked up and over. The headlight caught a glare, like there were mirrors in their eyes. I can't remember much after that, the panic had gripped me. I looked over at my girlfriend and saw my own fear and disbelief painted on her face. She gunned the engine, and we left with haste.

As we drove, I took a look behind. The figure was still shuffling, and eventually they were swallowed by the night.

I don't know if it was ghost, or a demon, or whatever. All I know is that no one should be wandering an isolated highway with a baby stroller at 3am, looking like a babushka. Anyway that's my story, hope you enjoyed!
