Local Legends

Spook Bridge

Quitman, GA

Spook Bridge spans the Withlacoochee River between Brooks and Lowndes counties in south Georgia — a closed 1920s road bridge whose graffiti-covered span and swampy setting have made it the region's rite-of-passage legend trip, with tales of apparitions, drownings and an abandoned mill.
