It is told that a car full of teenagers sped down Corwin Road and tried to make a 90 degree turn onto the bridge (located on Middletown Road). The car plummeted from the bridge into the icy Little Miami River. All teens in the car were killed and one woman had her head decapitated. Her head was never found. The bridge (built in 1982) is now haunted by the woman. Her ghost roams on the bridge or near the bridge. To me, this smells like an urban legend because no newspaper article can confirm the car crash. Locals say if you stop your car on the bridge at midnight, you will either see the ghost head or it will drop into your car. That’s rather hard to believe.
Rosie and I had just completed a 2.5 mile hike a half mile down the road at Caesar Creek Gorge State Nature Preserve. We were about to head to a county park a mile distant to hike another trail before dark. I took photos of the bridge and walked on it peering at the river below. I did not have my tape recorder to do an EVP. The river water was rushing fast due to the recent rain, but I saw nor heard nothing out of the ordinary. It was an hour before dark as Rosie drove slowly across the bridge, turned around and then drove back across. No head fell into our open window. Perhaps its scarier at midnight.
