Summary: Across the country hundreds of old bridges harbour some of the creepiest paranormal activity known to man. Sometimes there's a ghost; other times a mysterious light. At some bridges there's a voice crying out in the darkness that sends a chill down the spine of anybody who hears it. Haunted Bridges details more than 300 true tales, stories that are told in hushed tones around hearths and campfires as we ponder the mysteries of the afterlife late into the night. The stories are at once mesmerising, unique, and unexpectedly familiar, as if we all know deep down that fate keeps some spirits bound to earth. And if you know where to look and if you can endure the fear you will experience the dread and fascination of the unexplained.
