Cry Baby Bridge in Davidsonville Md crosses over the Patuxent River. As a teen we partied there all the time since I grew up just a few miles from it. We have seen and heard many unusual things there. Once the car we were in just shut off and would not restart for quite some time. Then it just started right up, but not until after a break in the erie fog came. It is true that the KKK used to meet there. As well as some Satanic group. But the spot has always been a good fishing spot. Not many go at night though, and those who have have reported some wild things. I know that at one time while i was in highschool, they captured a bob cat in the area and attributed the crying sounds to it as their cry does in fact sound like a baby. I know in reality the story about the girl throwing her baby over happened. You can research it in the public records for the area. I know also that we freaked out my cousin while she was visiting, we had the driver stop the car in the middle of the bridge and act like it wouldnt start, while it was dark my husband >then boy friendheaded into PG county

This area is where the ‘goatman’ myth supposedy started…check it out your self.. http://www.wikipedia.com, search for Goatman.

concerning the bridge. I’ve been there 5 times now and haven’t seen anything. I go with new people every time. I usually show up there around 10pm to 12am. I haven’t seen a thing. For those of you who have, I was wondering if you could tell me the best time to go and actually see the girl. On the other hand, I have seen the car. It reminded me of an old black camaro. It chased us across the bridge before it disappeared. But other then that, nothing has happened. There’s just a bunch of graffiti on everything. I would appreciate some pointers on when to go and what exactly to look for.

Once, when I was 12, my mom gave me a capgun and I shot it at a bird and the bird died. Creepy huh? Oh yeah, a bridge. I killed some babies and jumped off of it. I did a cannonball. Then I hung myself, but I didn’t die, cuz I hung myself by the torso. If you drive over the bridge between 2:30am and 3:17am, I will jump out and offer you weed….err…my ghost will. I used to be a pregnant teenager, but while I was driving with my family over the bridge, I threw up pea soup on my mom and she spun out (cuz there was a storm) and she crashed the car. We all died, cept for my baby that burst out of my ****** 3 secs before the crash. My baby’s name is Kyle and his favorite color was blue, because he turned blue in the freezing water. F–U–C–K—-P–I–S–S

Ok, if anyone has ever been over the bridge…..driving or walking after midnight….did u look at the stockings (pantyhose) tied tied to the side of the bridge….yes,….a creepy site…I was there about 15 years ago…you could hear like whispering….not trees russeling…but whispering..it was me and 5 other friends….we parked on the side of the bridge (dirt side) not on the bridge….you just felt something there…..what ever it is it is not your own fear or mind….you just feel it…..go late after midnight….park on the side of the road and walk the bridge and then stand in the center and close your eyes…just for a moment…..you will feel and hear it also….

as for the church….now this was same night 15 years ago….. we went there also…..F@@@ing creepy…you could smell death…..I touched the door( i was dared) but I wanted to do it..it was sooo cold that night, but the door was warm like hot warm….you could feel nothing good happened there….they would not touch it!!! But I youst to live with a ghost so it did not bother me…..but the road up to the church….alll the houses you couid see from the road all had red candle lights in the windows?????? WHY????don’t know…did not stop to ask……but if you drive up to the church at night…loook for the red candles in peoples windows!!! Blessed Be,

Isn’t this bridge close to the Toyota Dealership?

This is BS. I was on this bridge last night. How the hell would you expect police to search a metal bridge for evidence someone had been there. See if she left an aura?

I saw some weird stuff, but it all turned out to be deer when I pointed the flashlight, the weird car turned out to be some guys driving around smoking weed, and all the moving objects were shadows from a flashlight as I moved it.

i’ve been over this bridge a lot. i have heard the story about the teenage girl dropping her baby in the water and jumping in after. i’ve seen the girl a few times. and if you stop on the bridge and turn your car off, sometimes it wont start again.

usually only after 12 will it not start.

the roads called governors bridge rd. its off of 301. I know for a fact that peaple have been mudererd there. i sisters ex boyfriend found a dead body there.

I live in crofton, md. this past summer my friend and i were driving around on some back roads off of patuxent road. (if you’re on 424 and and go straight across route 3. go straight for a while, when you get to the stop sign, most people turn right. go left or straight) at the end of one of those roads, i dont remember which one, there was a church. i dont remember the name, or ever hearing anything about it. the roads themselves were terrifying, just driving with the windows down freaked us out. it was the middle of summer but it felt like it was 40 degrees out. anyways, we parked in the church parking lot thinking we could catch our breath. bad idea. the church was pitch black. we got an weird, freaked out feeling and all the sudden a red glow turned on inside the church and we saw a shadow pass by a window. there were no other cars in the parking lot.

so we turned around and went back to where we started and went down the other not so popular road. call us whimps but it was terrifying. we couldnt even make it all the way down. the pavement stopped and it was gravel. the trees just seemed to encompass you on the road like there was no way out. when we’re feeling brave we’re going back, we want to see if something for real actually happens.

The true haunting of Governor’s Bridge is the local lore of it’s own story. The idea of something haunting this area is the true nature of it’s own tale. Actual events of this young lady who did away with her baby, then herself certainley seems to be the fuel of the story. Then you add in all the years of spinning story around story. With someone adding in a wee bit here, and a lil bit there, you will end up with a believable story that gathers as it goes. I am a 35 year old man and I personaly have spent many, many nights there fishing. The scariest thing I have yet to see during those times was some of the Carp I pulled from the river itself. I have arrived when it was still lite outside, built fires and stayed till it was once again lite outside. Not a single time have I witnessed something strange or paranromal even. I am in no way, shape, or form a skeptic. I do my own investigations and I live for the standing hairs and wavy chills that pass thru my body when I am in the presence of the paranormal. But I do not believe there is anything “haunting” about this bridge or it’s area. As long as there are people to continue the story, it will stay around and maybe even grow some more. Maybe someday someone will allow an investigation at the farm house near by. I know for a fact that this paticular place is haunted. Have seen it with my own two eyes. It’s an old farm house, still lived in, in the Davidsonville. Still has the slave quarters on the property.

This is NOT true, Governors Bridge is NOT haunted. Ive been over and on the bridge a MILLION times. Ive seen nothing, my friends have seen nothing. I mean a lot of teenagers go there at midnight like it says to do and nothing EVER happens. This is NOT the real Cry Baby bridge.

I used to work right off of Governor’s Bridge Road, and used it to get to D.C. every day (and frequently in the evening) – crossing the bridge – and never saw anything there. My boyfriend at the time lived locally, and I know that he and friends had driven to the bridge (as had others they knew) “ghost hunting” with absolutely no success. I would not recommend a long trip there to be dissapointed. It is a little creepy/off the beaten track, and is mainly used by locals and fisherman. So seeing someone on the side of the bridge or in the water is very commonplace and not at all spooky unless you are determined to make it so with your imagination! Sorry!

For all the people who say this place is not haunted and went there and nothing happened , let me ask you. How many times have you went here? People just guess that if they go to a place ONE time and nothing paranormal happen’s then its not haunted. Do some research on investigating before you come on here and say a place is not haunted.

I use to live in sc for 7 years and the last 3 or 4 years that when i was still there i had just heard about this story like the one person said what was the girls name the dates when this happened there has to b some records of this happening somewheres and the ones that had experinced this paranormal sighting must have been very interesting to experinced it.there was 3 people that told me and my husband this same story and we never got that chance to check it.so if any one really really knows any thing about this story can someone pm under the name s4t4ns_lady or any one has takin pictures from being and this girl had showed in the pictures or any thing of some sort i would love to see them

I’ve read reports of the Goatman being on this bridge throwing rocks at those who drive by. One night my friends went there and when they took pictures, at least 40 orbs showed up in the pictures. There’s no doubt that this bridge is haunted

I lived in Davisdonville for about 8 years, which is next to the Bridge. I have camped there many many times, canoed down the river drop point being the bridge in the middle of the night with no flash lights, and Hiked up and down the river at ALL HOURS without a flash light.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN MY ASSOCIATES AND I HAUNT THAT BRIDGE : )
Just keeping the spirits alive and fun.
Many may think it’s mean but, My associates and I have never Physically harmed anyone. Let me just tell you Haunting a place makes for the best camp fire stories
