The Ghost Bridge of Amish Village in Sarasota, Florida
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The old story about this bridge goes that a Dutch boy named Amos fell in love with an English girl named Ingrid. They had to keep their love a secret from their disapproving parents. One night the girl went to meet the boy underneath the Phillippi Creek railroad bridge but she slipped in the mud before he arrived. She tossed her soiled clothes into the water for fear her parents would find them and went home to change. When the boy arrived he saw the clothes and believed that she had drowned. He was so sad that he jumped off the side of the bridge and died. When she came back the girl saw his body and was so sad that she climbed up jumped off the bridge and died too. The two lovers lay dead on opposite sides of the river and their ghosts would be trapped there forever. The two lovers now haunt the bridge and grab people trying to cross causing them to fall into the creek and drown. Some people believe this story is true and others believe it was made up by the railroad workers to keep kids away from the bridge. Folktales of Florida |
