This bridge is next to the Kroger in Danville. It is very creepy at night. When the wind is blowing in the right direction, the bridge will moan.

Actually Alex, the place where the worker fell into the concrete is right over white lick creek in Avon park.I myself have been in the bridge and smoked pot in it many many times,nothing scary ever happens there,only pot smoking.

WOW!!!! All my life I had heard of this story. I never thought it was true because my older cousins liked to pick on me and they are the ones that told me. I find it amazing to learn that it’s real.

Actually the bridge in Avon that you are talking about is the haunted bridge and it isn’t even cement. It is steel. Different bridge, different story. And yes lots of pot smoking and not scary. But you also need to believe and it is a little hard to be serious when you are stoned.

Hey, I do most of my best ghost hunting while im high…..but i also do believe in the stuff so that prob helps out some

Pot Heads!

First of all it seems two stories are getting mixed up. The bridge in Avon was the one the guy fell into and died when he was buried alive. It is believed by some that you can hear him scream as he is falling down to his death. The bridge in Danville (behind Kroger)was said to be haunted by a woman carrying a baby. she was walking the track when a train came down the track and she had nowhere to go so she jumped hitting the bottom of the creek below. She and herbaby were both killed.sometimes on a foggy night you can hear the train whistle blow and the blood crurling sream of the young woman along with the crying infant. I ought to know I lived there my whole life as well as my grandparants who told the story to me. Not to mention the night I was there to witness it for myself. That was one night I will NEVER forget

I drive under the danville bridge a few times a day everday and have lived just a few miles from it my whole life cool place very creepy looking but I have never been there at night but being a local i don’t go because of the local Danville police Department small town to many cops not enough crime and the fire station is less than 100 yds from the bridge its pretty easy to get ran off by someone and i no there isn’t a pothead out there that wants a run-in with local cops

My brother and I are avid ghost hunters and have traveled to different haunted sights in Indiana. We made 2 trips to White Lick Creek over the summer of 2007. We believe that the surrounding woods are more haunted than the bridge itself. Evidence collected during our first journey found some very crazy things in our digital photos including eerie faces (one of the devil) in the background. During our second trip, we caught several EVP’s, a few of which answered our questions through the forest. Very interesting and haunted INDEED! It’s a trip worth taking again so for all of you fellow ghost hunters, take a trip down the different trails! You won’t be disappointed!!!

Ok, seriously, if anyone cares….well, a woman that I am in contact with published this story in her book. The story of the worker falling into the cement goes like this:
The workers were working late one night to finish pouring the concrete before the next day’s shift. One of the workers lost his balance and fell of the undeveloped side of the bridge and became stuck in the pouring concrete. The concrete set too much for the other workers to get the poor man out. When the concrete had set, they realized that all that was left of the worker was an arm sticking out of the concrete. Forever posed in an obvious pose of anguish. The fingers were extended and barely bent, as if to grasp the nearest person or object. The workers, for lack of a better word, freaked. One came up with a saw and sawed off the protruding arm.

When people stop on the bridge, which is actually located in Mooresville, an arm is said to appear. On one late night, a group of teens stopped on the bridge and waited. Around a half hour later, the arm appeared. It came up to their windsheilds and just paused before each car. It finally settled on a Blue Ford. It was said to have knocked on the window, and then pointed to the couple that was in it.

A few weeks later there was a car accident. A couple in a Blue Ford lost control of their car and it began to flip out of control. As the car settled, a farmer that was harvesting his corn happened to see what had happened. He rushed over and happened to save the two before the car became engulfed in flames. The Blue Ford was the first of three cars to be pointed out in that year. All of the inhabitants were high school students, and one of the vehicle inhabitants were not lucky enough to live.

that must be creepy for all the people i am only10 years old although i would try
to help the spirit pass on

All I know is that there is some “killer” fishing in White Lick creek…been fishing there for years, and never had any weird experiences other than losing my cell phone in the creek because a snake swam right by me and freaked me out.

All right kids. This is a part of local urban legends and folklore. There are probably a half dozen explanations for the so called hauntings, with some of the more popular ones showing up here. Not included are versions where a murderer escapes from Central State and makes his way to Danville or Avon, where a couple is parking at one of the bridges. The boyfriend hears some noises and investigates, not to return. In various versions the killer had a hook for a hand or used an ax, and was found on top of the car roof in the morning by investigating sheriffs deputies or the dismembered hook was found buried into the sheet metal of the car when the girlfriend got frightened and drove home, leaving her already butchered boyfriend behind. Other versions have a Chinese immigrant worker falling into the concrete mix, and still others have the entombed worker’s face being partially visible in the concrete surface to this day. The version with the woman and child has been told that she killed her unwanted baby by throwing him off of the bridge, also.

The main bridges in question are Twin Bridges in Danville behind the fire station, which lies in a depression and is very eerie looking on many nights due to the the fog which rises and collects due to topography and the concrete bridge off of the road by the softball diamonds in Avon, which also is eerie looking at night for similar reasons. The one in Mooresville is a newer story, which I had not heard yet. I am almost 50 years old and did some thorough investigating of the sites some 25-30 years ago and never saw too much of anything other than hobos, which used to frequent the bridges when the interior compartments were not blocked off. In the bottom of each arch is a hollow room, where they used to stay as the the temperature inside remained livable year round. My sister, who is ten years older than I am, did the same when she was young, with the same outcomes. BTW, before someone flames me for being a non believer, I have lived in one documented haunted house in Bloomington, which unfortunately no longer stands and I do believe in supernatural occurrences.

If you really want to find a real spooky place here in Indy, try the old Westlake house at the Northeast corner of 465 and 10th. St., which can be gotten to by turning north on the first street east of the interstate. This was the home of the original owners of the Westlake drive-in theater and of the pool complex which used to be located where Westlake apartments are now standing. The home was sold for them to build a new one, which now has been demolished. Since they moved, several owners have lived there and vacated due to strange goings on. It is now occupied by an architectural or engineering firm, I believe. Also, Hanna house is another home with some verified crazy stuff going on over the years.
