Real Haunted House

Governor’s Bridge

Anne Arundel County, Maryland

Many years ago, a young unmarried teen-aged girl became pregnant. Afraid to tell her parents, the girl took her newborn baby and dropped it over the side of the bridge. Realizing what she had done, the girl jumped from the bridge and fell to her own death. Today, the woman stands in the middle of the bridge, frightening drivers. One truck driver drove into the side of the bridge trying to avoid hitting the woman. When police went to investigate the scene, there was no evidence of anyone having been on the bridge.

I live right next to governors bridge road i take it everday for work ive been on it in the early hours of the morning theres no ghost jus a load of ****. Theres a crybaby bridge in every state almost its just the same story over and over again. However the bridge is around an area where KKK members meet. Riva and edgewater are both hotbeds for KKK.

I’ve been to this bridge quite a few times with my buddies looking for ghosts. So far all I found out there was a quiet place to drink and an owl which scared the **** out of us. You expect to hear something right? so you’re as quiet as you can be when after about 10 minutes we hear an owl screech. Yeah, sobered me right up. Haven’t seen anything there, and we have gone there a lot. spent some time in my late teens looking for haunted places in Maryland. Found one that I actually saw some things that give me goosebumps to this day 6 years later. Definitely not this bridge though.

This is the bridge that rund between Davidsonville and Bowie. Off of 424 (Davidsonville road), headed towards Crofton, you would make a left onto Governors’ Bridge Road and follow it straight back. Once you cross the bridge, if you keep going, you’ll end up by the Saturn Dealership and Bowie Baysox Stadium parking in Bowie near 301.

I have lived here all my life and this story is true along with the bridge is the story of hell house the old girls college in ellicott city which is no longer there. The story of Black Agie is also true but she was not evil when she was alive she was actually a nurse the eyes glow yes because of the paint that was put on the statue. I believe in this stuff and my father grew up here and has seen plenty. There us another brige but the correct cry baby bridge is in howard county

I also forgot the satanic church is true because i know someone who has expierienced the issue with the church now it is a regular church a lot of the haunted areas have been built around which cuts the historic out of it and isnt worth looking into.

Hey I somehow ended up on the Maryland section on accident and then saw that y’all have a “Cry Baby Bridge ” too. There is one back in Rock Hill SC, (the town next to my hometown), and the story goes that wayyy back in the day ( before cars were owned by everyone , when they were owned by the wealthy only pretty much). A young mother was leaving a friends house where she had just had dinner, and she gets tired carrying the baby so she stops on the bridge to take a lil breather. She lays the baby on the rail, for a second and the baby fell off the railing. When you go to the site of the bridge you can hear the baby crying and, some pretty weird stuff happens there. My father, When he was about 16-17, and his friends went there one night, (his friend had just gotten a brand new car, seriously the day before), so anyways they were on the bridge laughing about the ghost bc they had never seen it. When they decided to leave, still laughing it up, they started the car and hit the gas, and the car wouldnt budge, they said that it felt like someone was holding the car in place. When they got out of the car to check it out, there were what looked like fingernail marks all down the trunk. Needless to say they never made fun of the woman from Cry Baby Bridge again! If y’all are ever in the area check it out! Def. Creepy!

its real funny that this is almost the same story as the Kingsville bridge which is right around the corner from the Jericho Covered bridge in harford county. Honestly I belive in some of this haunted stuff and ghost but; I dont see how every bridge could have had a teenage mother drop their child over the edge and then kill herself. Only difference in he bridges is that the mother at Kingsville bridge was kicked out by her parents and hung herself after killing the baby not jumping to her death.

the real story is the girl hung herself from the bridge after tossing the baby. how – don’t know and nobody ever will. the bridge isn’t bad at all, it’s all the dead walking the road that will get you.

another truly haunted place is beverly beach in mayo. the kalbs, who owned it, were my step fathers parents. real strange people. there were two buildings along the water front that housed rides from the abandoned amusement park, nothing came out the same as it went in. there was also a house just down from the two buildings right on the water. the grandparents lived there for a long time, a summer place for them, i remember being there and seeing people walking the grounds and in the house day and night. one early morning the house went up in flames for no apparent reason. i have not been back since.

Ok this one hits close to home. I live in edge water and my boyfriend, little sister her bf and I were driving down this road one night when we were bored. My bf wanted to scare me and my little sister so when we got on the bridge he turned off the car ( I wouldnt advise anyone else doing this since there is a sharp turn close to the end of the bridge, and you wouldnt want to get hit) well when he turned off the car and rolled down the windows it was pitch black and really quiet.. I mean too quiet for being by the river… I started groping in my purse for my cell phone so that I could shine some light into the car. ( now im a big skeptic when it comes to ghosts, but something about the silence was really scaring me, that and it was so damn dark) SO i couldnt find my cell but i found my camera…so i took a pic of my boyfriend, when it popped up on the screen it was fine, I took a pic of the back seat with my sister and her bf, again the picture popped up a second later and was fine.. than i took a pic of the darkness out the window… my tiny little flash lit up the whole river side.. I didnt see nething, but the pic on my camera wasnt popping up… which was weird cuz again there were fresh batteries and its a new cam… so again i took a pic out the window, this time the pic took 3 seconds instead of the usual 1 and the picture looked like there was a face peering half way into the window… it was really blurred and kinda looked like smoke… the face stayed on the screen for about 4 seconds while everyone in the car who squeezed around the cam screamed… and than my batt light flashed and the cam went dead… well after that we hightailed it out of there… when I got home I put fresh batts in the cam again and started it.. all my pics of that night were on the memory card, except for the four I took in the car… no lie!……. oh if anyone knows of any good places to go could they email them to me with directions.. I live in edgewater… gina_brittney80@hotmail.com tahnks

Grew up in Bowie and lived in Crofton ever since. I’ve been over this bridge more times than I can count. I’ve been at several roadside parties as well late at night and never seen anything. To be honest I never knew it was supposed to be haunted. I’ve been laughing at all this. I know someone was murdered on the road in his car, shot by some wannabe Bowie gangster in the early 90s.

Yeah, I definitely saw the lady. She jumped off the bridge ’cause Black Aggie and Goat Man were chasing her!! They all live in Glenn Dale Hospital now. THATS where you’ll find them.
