This is a very haunted bridge that all locals know about. Add night many people have seen A apparition of a old man holding a lantern at the bridge. Many people driving along the road and filled that something is in the backseat of the vehicle and look in the rear view mirror and see a shadow outline of a human body sitting on the back seat. One time I was walking down this road and I was hearing drums and no house was around. Me and my friends went down this road many times and got out at the bridge and we always feel uneasy and hear strange noises.

My nephew and I drove over this bridge on our 4-wheelers late one night. He told me the stories regarding the old man etc. We didn’t see anything,but when we stopped in the middle of the road and turned off the 4-wheelers, we heard noises in the wooded area. It sounded like someone was walking through the woods,it could have been an animal,but when we took off again,we stopped and we heard the same sound. Regardless, we didn’t see anything,but it was somewhat of a creepy feeling,like being watched. Go check this place out if you are ever in the area.
Where’s the bridge?
Why is it called a bridge and it isn’t a bridge
