The third bridge is a popular spot for local high school students to hang out and is said to be the scene of a car accident where some students were once killed. People say that the place is near where a terrible Native American massacre took place long ago. It is rumored that if high school students get too loud and rowdy, the sound of ghost drums will get louder and sound closer. Some have reported seeing the spirit of a man on a horse.

3rd bridge during a blood moon August 2025


Now my experience on August 15th at midnight...

### Rain’s Testimony – Third Bridge

On the night we went out to Third Bridge, the moon was gibbous and blood red. The place had a strange and heavy feeling, as though the air itself remembered. Shadows moved in the trees, though no one was there. At one point we heard the sound of someone coughing nearby, but the road and fields were empty.
We recorded a bit of audio while there amd heard nothing but later, listening back to my recording, I found sounds that hadn’t been there while we stood on the bridge. Footsteps, heavy as boots, though I wasn’t wearing any. A low, deep bass that seemed to come from nowhere. And at forty-one seconds in, a voice whispers a word—maybe “up,” maybe “they’re up.” It sounds uncannily like my own voice, but I never spoke a word during the recording.

I don’t know what to make of it except that the bridge carries weight. Its history of tragedy lingers in the atmosphere. When I stood there, it felt as if those lonely roads remembered me, even when I struggled to remember myself.

It’s maybe haunted

Me and my friend stopped at a smaller town 30 min away or so to use the restroom. As we are using the restroom I decided to take toilet paper out of the porter potty and tie a piece to my mirror. We drove the whole 30 minutes and the toilet paper stayed on the whole time, and when we got to the bridge it was still there. We drove slowly with are lights off maybe 2 mph and then we possibly seen a dark figured kind of like fly by the truck window and I was driving and looked over and my friend screamed as we seen it. He then proceeded to put his back and lay down on the seat where your a** goes. We drove away and later stopped up the road because the toilet paper came off in that same moment. Mind you we had the windows basically all the way up and if the toilet paper were to break it would fall to the ground or fly away it somehow got into the truck. As we were stopped up the road we both got out to look for the toilet paper which we then found behind the seats that was still in the same knot that we had tied it in on the skinny part of the mirror.

Ran off road, car wouldn't start.

A decade ago, my friends and I ventured to Third Bridge, a location infamous for its ghostly legends. We didn’t encounter any of the typical supernatural phenomena—no ominous drumming, shadowy figures, or unsettling sounds. However, what happened to us on the way there was far more unnerving.

As we were driving, a truck materialized out of nowhere and began tailgating us aggressively, even though we were already speeding 10 mph over the limit. Their relentless pursuit forced me to pull over. We were stopped for just 45-60 seconds, but during that brief period, the car started making eerie, unfamiliar noises and then refused to restart. My push-to-start vehicle, which had never failed me in a decade, was completely dead.

After a pulse-pounding few moments, the car finally roared back to life. We desperately tried to catch up with the truck, but it had vanished into thin air. There were no lights, no trace—nothing. The area was too confined for it to have disappeared so quickly.

Though we never saw anything ghostly at Third Bridge, the sudden appearance and disappearance of that truck, combined with the malfunctioning car, left us deeply unsettled. It was a chilling reminder that sometimes, the most frightening experiences are those that defy logic and reason.

The ghost car

Me female decided to go to the third bridge with my 3 male friends my friend had just got a BMW (brand new) and wanted to speed to the bridge as we almost there we got pulled over and the cop was yelling at us saying “ do you guys not know what happened to the 4 boys who were up here speeding” we told him no because we really had no clue “ he said that they crash the car right but the bridge and burned for hours before they were found blah blah he got a ticket we moved on and still wanted to explore right after the cop left we were about to get out the car and saw a car speeding on the opposite side of us then randomly disappeared we assumed it was the car the cop just told us about as we tried to drive off his brand new BMW didn’t want to start and the drive started to feel like he was going to throw up after like 3 minutes the car finally started up.

Absolutely not safe

Me and my hbs went last night as we got out of the car I already was hearing my name but it sounded like it was getting further and further away, as we went further my friend started puking and screaming at the top of his lungs while we tried to calm him down he went on to describe how he was going to make us pray so that our souls would be clean and ready for sacrifice. When we got back to our car he started telling us he was talking to people and they were telling him to sacrifice ourselves. When we first got under the bridge I took a picture of him and you can clearly see multiple faces behind him as we left the car wouldn’t go over 12 mph, would only recommend if you want to be scared shitless

Tall figure touches ppl and is visible

Me and my two friend have been to third ridge 3 times the first time we went as just a group of teens and we were on top of the bridge for a bit but would get back into the car when we would here a car coming. One of the cars that passed started to slow down so we started to drive. The car followed us for 20 minutes and we did the 4 turns thing onto property’s and random roads in the middle of no where. They were still following us and turned off their headlights so we couldn’t see them as good, we started to get scared so we sped up and passed a bunch of cars to get away from them. The second time we got a picture of a tall shadow figure when under the bridge, my camera stopped working and the battery in my phone got drained to 10 when we got there it was at 80. The 3rd time we went was tonight. We went under the bridge just the 3 of us and we got pretty scared. I saw a tall black figure behind a tree on the right side of the bridge. I didn’t say anything so i wouldn’t scare one of my friends. The ghosts ended up touching my friends sweatshirts and pulling on clothing. I heard branches snapping when we were on-top of the bridge and the drumming for a couple of seconds. I got a picture of something that looks like a skin-walker. I highly recommend going but be careful and don’t go alone.

For sure haunted

I’ve gone to third bridge several times and every time gets more crazy. My latest trip there was tonight with two of my friends we all experienced paranormal whether it was being touched seeing or hearing things. We heard drums a faint scream. We also saw many shadow figures, one looking almost like it was crawling on all fours. We stayed for around 20 minutes most of the time on top of the bridge trying to hear things. Me and one of my friends saw the same figure. We heard a noise and started sprinting back to the car. I am not a strong sprinter so I was in the back and while running I looked behind and saw something walking behind us which was very strange because no one else was there when we were. Before all that happened I was walking Infront of my friends on top of the bridge and felt someone behind me, I turned around and no one was there. My friends were to far behind for it to have been them. This is truly a crazy experience every time I go. I definitely recommend to go but keep your guard up.

Car got stuck in mud

My sister her friend me and my sisters boyfriend were on our way to the third bridge.we were probably like 20 minutes away and 5 minutes we were almost there my sister and her boyfriend got lost and we lost them so we pulled to the side of the road mind you it was pouring we were literally like 6 ft from the bridge and we were trying to drive but we got stuck in the mud so we all tried moving her car but it just wouldn’t budge so we had tried calling towing companies and they said they couldn’t tow her car out of the mud so we just sat there waiting for someone to try and help but then a cop pulled over and he took us to the nearest McDonalds cause it was freezing and we could’ve gotten hypothermia then finally we got a tow company to come and tow the car so we got an Uber back to the car…we waited for like 10 minutes and the tow guy finally got us out. We all thought that the bride might’ve had some bad juju we didn’t even get to check it out but hey maybe next time right. I recommend to go when it’s NOT pouring lol. Hopefully I typed this down right .

Captured nothing.

08/20/22 My daughter and I have been watching Nukes Top Five for years together. We are both very interested in the paranormal and have begun acquiring ghost hunting equipment. We’ve only been on 5 hunts thus far and haven’t seen, heard or captured anything on video or photo. 3rd bridge was one of those 5. I really didn’t feel like going to bed when the sun came up, so we decided to get there after midnight, but way before witching hour. When we got there around 12:30, there were 3 kids parked, partying. I asked them if they had seen any ghosts and received a coked out, massive run on sentence about not seeing anything, but had heard something, but you should have seen this weird, creepy, scrawny dear on the way over here bruh, type of answer. After he broke my retard meter, I let them know I was bustin a U and parking. They promptly left. Ell and I strapped up the GoPro on her chest, I grabbed the flashlights, EMF meter and camera. It was 60 degrees, a partial moon and although nervous and without our spirit box, Ell couldn’t wait and it arrived via Amazon today, we were ready. We parked on the west side of the bridge and walked along the south side. We did several sound checks, we’d shut off our lights and be still and silent for several minutes, to and fro - we only heard the peaceful chatter of bugs. Once we made it to the underside, which was fenced off, we did more sound checks, took pics and video but the EMF meter stayed on its first green marker light. The. Whole. Time. We explored for over an hour and left close to the 2 o’clock hour. We left disappointed. We still need to review our footage for the final grade and may try it again later with more equipment but there are other supposedly haunted places that we’d like to investigate first.

pretty scary man

on 07/03/2022 me and 4 other friends (3 female, 2 male) went to the bridge around 1:30am we thought it would be a good idea to go and mess around. one of the females have been there already said you can hear the sound of drums playing in the distance. we didn’t think it was true so we went to go check it out. we all had got out the car and all you hear is the sound of drums playing in the distance. two of the females started to walk away from the car while the other female (me) sat back in the car because I was scared. both males had got out the car and started taking pictures of each other. i had gotten out the car to take some too. but as soon as i got out the car the two females started to come back. mind you one was walking in the grass and the other was on the dirt road. i look at the two females coming back while the two males were still taking pictures. we heard someone running through the trees and i thought it was one of the females but we were all standing by the car and the sound got even louder and closer in the span of 30 seconds. we all rushed back into the car and drove off. i looked back and someone was standing in the middle of the road as we drove away. by the time we left it was only 1:45am. for being there for only 15 minutes was the scariest 15 minutes of my life. i recommend if you truly want to spooked go. but never go by yourself!
