Cry Baby Bridge: A Collection of Utter Speculation

At the edge of every town there’s an old bridge that breeds tragic tales. Car crashes on prom night. Pregnant women meeting their doom. Children falling into the rushing water below. No one knows if these stories are true, but everyone knows someone who’s experienced something strange there.

Welcome to Cry Baby Bridge.

If you venture here at the right time of year, on the right kind of night, you might hear a baby crying in the wind. You might see some things you didn’t believe were real. You might return with some stories to tell too, if you are lucky enough to leave.

In our fifth collection of utter speculation, we offer ten stories of ten bridges, each with its own secret. If you venture here, you will find some things that stay with you forever, and you might decide to stay away from that bridge on the edge of town.
