These old, covered wooden structures, which once served as vital passageways for travelers, now stand as eerie landmarks. Located primarily in rural, isolated areas, many haunted covered bridges are linked to dark and tragic events, such as fatal accidents, unsolved murders, or disappearances. The haunting tales that surround these bridges often involve restless spirits, lingering from the past, whose lives were abruptly cut short. For example, the Blair Covered Bridge in Ohio is infamous for being the site of a woman's murder, with reports of her ghostly presence wandering the area. The legend has it that her apparition still roams the bridge, crying out for justice or lost love. Similarly, in Pennsylvania, the "Ghost Bridge" near the small town of Sewickley is said to be haunted by the spirits of a family who died in a tragic crash. The eerie isolation and history of these structures make them a perfect setting for ghost stories. Those who venture into these bridges often report strange occurrences, such as inexplicable cold spots, the sounds of footsteps or whispering voices, and the sudden appearance of shadowy figures. Some even claim to see ghostly figures standing on the bridge, vanishing as quickly as they appear. Despite their spooky reputations, these haunted bridges also hold a sense of beauty and nostalgia, standing as silent witnesses to the past. Whether one believes in the paranormal or not, haunted covered bridges continue to captivate the imagination, blending history, legend, and mystery into unforgettable stories of the supernatural.

Stoner, the Sachs Covered Bridge extends 100 feet and serves to connect land separated by Gettysburg's Marsh Creek. For more than a century it allowed vehicles and pedestrians access in their travels. However, due to weakening abutments over the decades, this beautiful historic landmark was closed to all automobiles by 1968. Almost 30 years later, flooding caused the bridge to be shaken from its foundation, requiring over half a million dollars to fully restore it with steel support beams. While certainly more structurally sound than ever, it is today open only to foot traffic. Throughout the years, township officials considered reopening the bridge for vehicular use. But each time, the bridge's preservation outweighed any change in operation. When the Battle of Gettysburg broke out in July of 1863, the town of Gettysburg was turned upside down by the brutality that permeated the land. Since a vast majority of Union and Confederate soldiers were young men, there were instances that saw some of them attempt to abandon their posts and go into hiding. One such occasion involved three Confederate troops who tried to evade the war by donning Union attire. Marching with the North near Sachs Covered Bridge, they were soon discovered as belonging to the South and were promptly made an example. It's argued as to whether they were spies, deserters, or outright traitors. Regardless, the three young men were hanged from the bridge's wooden support beams, ensuring that any Confederates passing through would see the executed men, thereby serving as a warning. Sadly, this is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg when it comes to the harrowing accounts that took place during the infamous Battle of Gettysburg. As a part of the American Civil War, it saw tens of thousands of lives lost in the line of duty.
