THE GHOST OF BELLAMY BRIDGE MARIANNA FLORIDA IN USA

There are many different versions of this story; nonetheless, the Bellamy Bridge Ghost just might be Florida’s most infamous ghastly legend. Bellamy Bridge is an old steel frame bridge that spans the Chipola River, just North of Marianna. On dark and foggy nights, Elizabeth Jane Bellamy is said to roam the swamps surrounding the bridge, mourning the loss of love cut short. Elizabeth was only 18 when she died, days after marrying her husband, local politician and planter Samuel C. Bellamy. In one version, her extravagant wedding gown caught fire the night of her wedding; in another, she contracted malaria. After her death, her husband, so stricken with grief, eventually committed suicide. Visitors to the Bellamy Bridge claim to have seen fire extending from the bridge, mysterious white lights, and even the ghostly figure of a young woman walking through the fog.
