The iron bridge at Alderson

Oklahoma · USA · Bridge

The single lane ironwork bridge has been replaced by a modern one. People still hear a baby crying from under it.

The old single lane iron bridge here has been replaced by concrete and steel, and the reports have carried over to the new one.

Local people describe hearing a baby crying from beneath it late at night.

Some describe a faintly glowing figure of a woman, hovering just above the rocky bed of the creek.

The fact that the story survived the replacement of the bridge is the most interesting thing about it. Whatever people are responding to, it is not the ironwork, since that is gone.

Crybaby bridges exist across at least a dozen states and always involve the same three things: a woman, an infant and running water. This is the third or fourth in this archive alone.

Water moving over rock produces a startling range of sounds, and a creek bed under a bridge concentrates and reflects them.

The bridge is on a public road.
