Summary

Have you ever heard of a road so haunted that even the trees seem to whisper of its cursed past? Bridge Road, a lonely stretch between North Carolina and Virginia, is a hotbed of supernatural activity; shadowy figures, phantom vehicles, cryptid creatures, and winged humanoids that defy reason. Christian recounts firsthand encounters with a towering bipedal beast, a demonic flying entity clad in colonial garb, and ghost cars that appear only to vanish within moments. Layered over a bloody history of Revolutionary War massacres, witchcraft, and rumored portals, this road might just be a fracture in reality itself.

Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

If you’re able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay’s GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890
