Albertus L. Meyers Bridge in Allentown, Pennsylvania, is also known as the Eighth Street Bridge is a reinforced concrete, open arch, bridge which was first opened to traffic in 1913.

At that time, this was the highest, and longest, bridge in the world. In 1973 the bridge required repairwork.

Today it is one of the earliest known surviving concrete crossings worldwide.

In 1974 the bridge was renamed the Albertus L. Meyers Bridge in honor of Allen Town Band musical conductor Albertus Meyers.

The bridge accommodates approximately 17,000 vehicles per day.

However, not every crossing runs so smoothly.

Many pedestrians have reported truly unsettling, and often potentially dangerous, phenomena whilst crossing this bridge today.

Ghostly infestations, apparitions seen in vehicle passenger seats, spontaneous engine failure and disembodied voices channelling via car radios.

Could we be witnessing the spirits of the countless individuals who have tragically jumped to their deaths right here?

Some drivers even claim to seeing shadow figures actively jumping, and falling, from the side rails.

This phenomena is sudden, and distressing, so if this bridge is part of your travel route please proceed with caution.

To date there have been 110 known suicides from this bridge.

Authorities added security fencing to the bridge due to the astonishingly high and continual attempted suicide rates still ongoing today.
