Ghost Stories: Theorosa's Bridge Ghost Story

A ghost story from Linda Ritter sent to Angels & Ghosts !!

There is a bridge outside Wichita, Kansas called Theorosa's bridge.

Some friends and I went to check it out a few nights ago after hearing stories of encounters etc. We decided to go really late, because we've heard that around 3:00 in the morning becomes the "witching hour." The weather was calm that night, no moisture in the air at all and no wind. I have always believed in ghosts, but several of my friends who went did not. I say "did not." Here is what happened.

First, the bridge is kind of hard to find, so we thought the first bridge we came to on the road it's located on was it. We get out and start to explore. The theory goes, if you say outloud "Theorosa, I have your baby," she will come. We did this and nothing happened, no weird feelings, nothing. So after a bit we decide to leave with our non-believers, making severe fun of us. A ways down the road we came across

another bridge, smaller and covered in graphiti. Immediately the fun began. We had two cars and both drove across the bridge stopping on the other side to park. Both drivers got out of the cars freaking out. Neither knew anything had happended to the other. They both said as they drove over, they experienced a pressing, tingling sensation over their bodies. Everyone agreed that we had found the spot, because we ALL felt a sudden sadness in the air. I have been to several places and had expieriences, but not quite like this. We proceed to the middle of the bridge where it is almost deafening quiet and one of our members says, "Theorosa, we have your baby." Nothing happened, so we all start to walk around to explore, but one girl remained in the middle, just listening. The rest of us had gone to the other end where there is a plaque about the place, when I notice she is still on the bridge and laying down. I thought something happened to her and start to run for her

when she motions for me to be quiet. I approach her and she tells me to listen. At first I didn't hear anything but then, I heard it. The faint cry of a baby. It would whimper and then let out a cry. I got goosebumps! One by one we had everyone go to the center and listen, not telling anyone what we had heard. EVERYONE, including our non-believers heard the same thing. It sounded like it was coming from below the bridge. One of the guys,

thinking someone was below playing tricks on us, took a flashlight below; but there was no one there and the sound never stopped. All of a sudden he comes running back up top and says, "Do you guys hear that?" We listened and could hear what sounded like someone gurgling water. It started out a ways down the creek, but kept getting closer and louder. At the same time we all felt a sudden chill in the air and several people felt like someone was touching them. I started feeling a heaviness in the air and got suddenly sick to my stomach. The wierdest experience of all, the same girl who had first heard the baby crying, felt someone or something bump into her and the next morning discovered a pretty good size bruise in that spot. We decided it was time to go when she got bumped.

You'll never convince me it was all just coincidence, as our "non" believers are now believers. There was not one single person there who didn't have an experience.
