Frozen Cars Leave Icy Bumper Shells Behind After Ice Storm

After the recent ice storm that swept through North Carolina, spooky things have been happening throughout the state… One person captured photos of a ghostly car fender apparition that is actually a shell of ice that formed on the front of a parked Jeep.

The most plausible theory regarding how the shell was formed suggests that the driver separated the sheet of ice from their fender when they warmed up their engine. The shell remained intact after the driver pulled out because it was supported by icicles frozen to the ground. This happened to other cars, too!

Cars seem to attract curious ice formations – check out our car ice art post!
