The Lonely Mother
In the small town igrew up in, we hardly had anything to do. My friends and i sataround all the time and told scary stories. Some of the storieswere true occurences. One night we were all sitting around. oneof my friends started to tell us about Millcreek Bridge. It is areal bridge located in a nearby town. He had told us that a youngcouple had just had a baby. The baby was only a few weeks oldwhen they decided to go rowing in the river. They all headed downthe river, and as they crossed the bridge, the canoe tipped overand the baby fell out. The parents and the police dragged theriver but the baby's body was never found. The mother was soupset that she walked along the shore underneath Millcreek Bridgeuntil her death. it is known that she still remains here and youcan see her on moonlit nights if you look really hard. It is alsoknown that if you chant "I have your baby" three timesshe will try to harm you to get to her baby.
I thought that the story was a fake until we all tried it onenight on a full moon. We were all sitting in our cars, and we hadthis plan to say those words one at time. My car was the second.All three cars were facing north side by side so we could seeeach others faces. The first car with window down,chanted thewords. The looks on their faces was terrifying! All their faceswere white with fear. It was our turn, my friend rolled down herwindow and chanted. A few seconds later, we heard punding on thedoor. All around the car doors of my car were being jiggled as tobe opened. We were so freaked out that we decided to leave. If itwas the lonely mother of Millcreek Bridge she must have thoughtwe truely did have her baby. I still get goosebumps everytime ithink of the story and how I felt when we went to the Bridge. Iwill never forget it!
