Scotland's Overtoun "Bridge of Death"

In this episode of The Wicked Ones Podcast… Tara takes us across the pond to a creepy, unsettling site in Dumbarton, Scotland know to the locals as “The Bridge of Death” or “Dog Suicide Bridge.” You read that right. There is an actual bridge that for some yet unknown reason, dogs are compelled to run and leap over the side…to the jagged rocks some 50 feet below.

The bridge and the surrounding area are actual quite lovely, as the bridge was designed in the late 1800’s, is beautifully ornate and surrounded by lush greenery. They say this phenomenon, when it happens, will be on a clear, sunny day, which tend to be rare in this western region of Scotland. Many have thoroughly investigated and have tried to solve the mystery, but to this day, the bridge’s deadly pull defies all logic.

Listen in as Tara covers the many theories as well as a brief overview of the Congelier Manor & it’s haunting legend. If nothing else, you’ll have a few new things to share around the campfires & bonfires this Halloween.
