Covert's Crossing Bridge

One other area of interest is the Covert's Crossing Bridge. It is downstream from Hilltown Bridge on Brewster Road. There are multiple stories about this haunting. One story is that newlyweds were on the one lane bridge at night. Their horse drawn buggy was hit by a car. The bride was decapitated and the groom's body wound up in the river, never to be found. A second tale is that a girl was killed in the 1940's on the bridge returning home from the prom. She may have driven off of the bridge during a storm. She will appear at midnight on the bridge, in her white prom dress. The third mentions a ghost of a railroad worker who fell from his train and was also decapitated. Supposedly you park in the middle of the bridge at midnight, turn off your headlights and a ghost like image or ghosts will appear. A cult is said to hang out in this area so be warned.
