Dog Face Bridge

Indiana · USA · Bridge

A couple driving to their honeymoon in the 1950s swerved for a dog on this Indiana bridge and went over the side. The dog died anyway.

The bridge near San Pierre, Indiana takes its name from what happened on it in the 1950s.

A couple were driving over it on their way to their honeymoon when a dog ran out in front of the car. They swerved, went over the side, and killed the dog regardless.

Accounts differ on who died. In one version both of them were killed. In the other only the man was. Both versions agree on the rest, which is the part that gave the place its name: the woman was decapitated, as was the dog, and neither her body nor the dog's head was found.

What visitors describe is the two heads together.

There are two bridges along the path, and directions given locally are careful about which is which.

No record has been produced for the crash and the story should be read as folklore, though the detail about the recovered and unrecovered remains is unusually specific for a legend of this kind.
