“Who was Emily? The legend goes that there was a young woman named Emily at some point between 1849 and 1949. Emily was waiting for her boyfriend at the bridge. Her parents disapproved of the relationship, the boyfriend never showed up to meet here there, so Emily hanged herself from the bridge rafters, in despair.
On some still summer nights, you can hear strange sounds coming from Emily’s Bridge.
Shuffling footsteps. Rustling clothes. The shouts of youths. Maniacal laughter. A whistle, or maybe just the wind?
