Location Description:         
 

Supposedly, a long time ago, black women were hung there, and slave children were drown in the creek. When you shut your car off on the bridge or near the church and cemetery, and go to start it again, it makes funny noises. When you sit in the ledge of the bridge, take your shoes off, and dangle your feet above the creek, you can feel a weird tickling feeling on your feet. Myth says it's the slave children drown there tickling your feet. You can see peculiar lights like sets of eyes that blink every now and then, under the bridge, in the trees along the creek, and in the cemetery up on the hill by the creek. Also, if you go out on a dark night, when there has been no running water...in forever, stop your car on the bridge, and roll down your windows, you can hear what sounds like water running in the creek, but also strangely, foot steps in the weeds and leaves. If you stay and hang out for a while, like an hour or more, when you come back to your car, there are what appears to be foot and hand prints on your hood and windshield. June Update/additional Information it's said that if you turn your engine off on the bridge that it won't start again. You'll have to push the car off the bridge onto the gravel road to get it to start. The poster tried this once and it started right back up. There's another variation to the story, but it's the same thing as what was submitted about Albino Farm Bridge in Springfield, Mo. There's also the ghost of a woman seen walking on the bridge at night. There may not be any truth in these stories about either place. Of all the people talked to about these places over the years, no one ever says that they themselves have seen anything. So it may be urban legend.

So my friend and I went to this place tonight, a little after 3 o`clock in the morning, and after finding the bridge (we had to turn around) we stopped the car on it. We didn`t turn it off and left the lights on and hung around for probably five minutes max because we couldn`t stop this feeling that we were being watched. When I let off the brake near the bottom of the bridge the entire car started rolling back with quite a bit of speed. We were freaked out by this so we pulled up to the middle of the bridge and the same thing happened, only the weird thing was that the car never increased in speed, even when we let it roll all the way to the end. Again, we did the same at the top of the bridge where it dips FORWARD and the car still rolled back. We felt like we were being pulled back and then I saw something moving in the water and we bolted.
Afterwards, being thoroughly freaked out, we decided to go to Steak `n Shake to cool off. When we came back out to the car (on the drive back, btw, we felt like something was on the back of the car) we noticed dried muddy children`s fingerprints on the trunk. The strange thing about the fingerprints was that the only way that they could look the way they did was if the trunk had been OPEN and they placed their hands there. There was also dirty prints on the cover to the gas tank and a full out child`s handprint (this one not muddy but rather like a clean hand had been placed there) on the top of the passenger`s side door. We compared the size of the prints to our own and not only did they NOT match but both of our hands were also entirely clean.
All in all, this place is entirely messed up. It IS haunted because we found no way that there could have been these prints before. I had just cleaned the windshield before we left and did not notice any of these things on the car during our trip, so I guess take it as you will. Any questions are welcome, email us at prblmsolvngyouth at hotmail dot com.

this place is awesome, me and my girlfriend went out there, and we got out our cell phones and put the camera on negative mode and there were three dark characters standing in front of the cemetary gate. and they say that if you see the eyes you will die 30 days later, true fact. a guy went in to the church and saw the red eyes and he died exactly 30 days later in a car wreck. so me and my gf left and went home

I was there last night and absolutely nothing happened. It was kind of a waste of time in my opinion. Nothing happened on the bridge. We shut the car off on the bridge and it started right back up. We went into the cemetery and again...nothing. I think it's just urban legend.

Awhile back after hearing a lot about this bridge/cemetary being haunted, a rather large group of friends (2 car loads) and I took a trip there and parked our cars on the bridge. I thought to myself, "nothing paranormal is ever going to happen with this many teenagers that are just here being loud and screwing around". Everyone was pretty routy and I seemed to be te only one taking anything seriously. After awhile of NOTHING, I started to get discouraged. A few minutes later I was standing near the edge of the bridge a good six feet away from anyone else when it felt like something tapped the top of my head twice. At first I was sure it was just a large june bug or something that had flown and bumped into my head a couple times, so I bent down and shook my head expecting a gross flying bug to maybe come out but nothing did. I still wasn't convinced. Then I walked a few feet towards my boyfriends car and we held hands, with his other hand he reached inside the car window to grab something. At that moment I felt a very LARGE hand grab the top of my head. For the first 2 or 3 seconds after it happened I was convinced someone was just patting me on the head or something and it didn't even scare me. Then as I looked around, I realized how far away everyone else was besides my boyfriend. They were all down at completely the other end of the bridge. I started shrieking and even teared up a little. It was the first and only time anything paranormal had ever TOUCHED me. I was so shooken up we actually had to leave b/c I was too scared to stay.

i just went there last night and of course, nothing happened. i was with a group of people and no body really saw or heard nething. my bf and I heard sumthing in the trees at the same time. he said it sounded like laughing, i said it sounded like crying but it was very quiet so it could have been anything. the only thing weird was this glowing in the water that kept moving every 5 min and no, it wasnt the moons reflection cuz u cud see the moon in the water too. one of my bf's frens had my fone on negative mode and he took a picture of the trees and there was a black spot. it also cud have been just a reflection or sumthing. we also went to the cemetary n nothing really happened but my bf's same fren heard water running in the trees. even tho i left pretty disapointed cuz nothing happened...id still go again just to see if nething would happen next time.

im the same person that left comment number 21242 at 10/19/2008 and this time me and my best friend went with her new boyfriend. since i had already been to nine mile before i didnt think anything was going to happen. we just decided to show my friends new bf the place cuz he's new to missouri. after we got outta my car i locked the doors (im OCD about that :D) and we just walked around the bridge tryna find names written on it. we got pretty bored and just started talkin bout random stuff and then i turned and looked at my car and i saw PART of a figure walking to my car. it looked like a foggy male from the waist down and that was it. after that i wasnt too thrilled about going back to my car so we waited to see if anything else happened. nothing did so we got brave enough to go to my car and guess what..every door was unlocked and with my remote start, you have to press the unlock button twice for EVERY door to unlock and i didnt push it once. just a tip for people who wanna go there...things seem to be more likely to happen when theres small groups bout no more than three or four.

My friend and I go here all the time, and to the cemetery. The legend is that your car will go dead on the bridge. Now my car has never gone dead on the bridge, but I have jump started several cars on that bridge. One of them was on Halloween night several years ago. The lady said she was driving across and that her car just went dead.

As far as the church goes, we never went in at night if the gate was closed. I took some pictures of the tombstones the same Halloween night I jump started the car and when I downloaded them, one was a green glowing face. The rest were just dark. I took the pictures with a sony digital camera, no flash at night. They have surveillance cameras down there now, we still go sit outside of the cemetery, but we don't go in even if the gate is open because we want to respect the church and the property, and the sign says no entry after dark now. We do often see strange lights in the cemetery, and the vibe you get there is amazing.

I have been to the 9 mile bridge several times. When I was 17 several of us use to go there and sit on the bridge and drink and have fun. Weird stuff has happened there and has happened to me. I had a 1995 ford ranger that was purple. It was raining but we all went out there tho. i parked the truck on the bridge towards the end and I sat inside since it was raining. My frend opened her door and went to see the people in the cars behind us. i had my music turned up and was looking through my cd's when I felt the truck move. I opened the door and was pissed because I had figured someone had pushed mytruck. It was a 5 speed and I always set my emergency break when parked. I got out of the car hollering and wanting to know who had done it. They asked what I was talking about and I told the the truck had been pushed. They did not believe me and told me I was imagining it. my friend walked back to the passengerside of the truck and could not make her way to the door. The truck had been pushed to the side of the bridge as if someone was trying to push it over the sid eof the bridge. The push had been so hard my tires had left tire marks on the bridge. I was upset becasue I thought someone had messed with it so I had my friend follow me to the church. I locked the doors and rode back to the bridge with her.When it came time to leave we went to getmy truck.First thing I noticed was the doors had bee unlocked. When we were back in town we went to a place we call pd parking lot. When we all got out of our vehicles someone recognized foot prints on the truck little foot prints. Then on the back window there appeared to b 4 white dots directly behind where my head sat. The dots would not come off. I have had several more experiences there such as the church doors slammin shut, when it is after 12am. There has beena lil girl who walks the cemetery kneeling on the graves. When she looks at u her face is black and has dark red eyes. Me and my fiance got on a ouiji board out there one night and a lil girl who is seven years old and goes by the name jessica told us she had been murdered by a guy who's name started with a J. He had murdered her with an ax. As she began talking she became scared and said he was coming. Then the lookin glass that u hold ur hands on began swirling crazily and wouldnt let us sign off. U may not believe me but there are several others that do and several that had been there. Just cuz it hasnt happened the first time u were out there means nothing. I also have a pic of what seems to be a lil girls head popping out of the groung next to a grave. i tis green tinted with pig tails. ANy one interested Email me at katiehogan_84567@yahoo.com and I will send i t to u

i'm not very convinced that its haunted. i was there at the bridge for about an hour and a half maybe. me and 4 other friends all took digital cameras we had 3 in total only odd thing that happened is that they all got drained of their batteries when we had new batteries and fully charged cameras. we snapped off a few pics before this though got one odd picture with looks like eyes in the trees at the top of the bridge. other than that not much happened. i plan on going back next weekend maybe stay longer who knows though when i was there it was about quarter past midnight so maybe just wasnt there at the right time. but if anyone has any pictures that are strange from this place feel free to send them to me i'd love to see them. brandonkirby23@yahoo.com hopefully i'll experience more next time :]

From Hillsboro take 70w to Kingdom City, turn left on 54 take the outer road that runs beside 70 on north side of Dennie's. You'll be traveling East on outer road. Follow to Callaway livestock center. At stop sign go left (passes over 70),follow till it turns to gravel, follow on gravel till it T's, go right follow past the little white church on the right. Go down the hill and it's the first bridge, it's marked with racist graffiti. There is a little house on left just passed the bridge w/ gated fence. on the way back check out old nine mile church cemetery. it's pretty creepy. MB

I have lived in Callaway County my whole life (50 Years) and never heard this storie. I assume you are talking about the bridge below the Presbyterian church. The Church is were Westminster College in Fulton was started. The part about drowning the slaves is a little hard to believe. That would be like drowning your prized cow today. Slaves were property. I know kids like to go to the bridge and party, or at least they use to. The baby and childrens prints have been rumored from the Bachelor cemetery north of the bridge a few miles. Keep checking it out!

I grew up in Auxvasse, and have partied a lot at 9 mile bridge. I can say that rarely does anything happen with big groups. My personal experience: Me and 2 friends were heading back into town after some back roading, and stopped on the bridge to "party" a little before we got home. It was a little after 10 pm we shut the truck off, but kept the radio on while we smoked. you could hear the water running, but thats not unusual seeing as there is a creek beneath it, but we could also see what looked like eyes in the trees watching us, which we had never noticed in all the times we had been there before. It was a little creepy, and we kept telling eachother to "look at that" and "you see that?" The whole time the radio in the truck was slowly getting louder. So slow, that we didnt even notice for a while, until we could barely hear ourselves talking, by the time we got to the truck, the volume was all the way up(this was an old truck with a factory radio, no remote control here) Thankfully the truck started and we got the hell out of there. we never told anyone else about it, but it freaked us out.
