A Tesla driver and his passengers were left shaken up after the car started to detect ‘ghosts’ walking through a cemetery near to the real life house from The Conjuring.
The bloke claimed to have been driving through a cemetery near to the Arnold Estate, which is the real-life inspiration for the 2013 flick, when figures started to appear on the car’s control screen.
For those unaware, Teslas are able to display information about nearby objects – including pedestrians and other vehicles – on the central display screen thanks to a number of special sensors.
In theory, the vehicles shouldn’t suggest that inanimate objects are people – nor should they detect ghosts, but here we are.
In the clip, the group can be seen slowly driving through the cemetery as more and more human-shaped figures show up on the screen – by the end of the clip the Tesla looks fairly surrounded by ‘ghosts’ as the passengers scream in fright. Yep, it’s a big old ‘nope’ from me, guys.
