The Haunted Bridge of Coweta County (part 1)

Published by tglisman under The Paranormal Edit This

Back in the day when I was a very young girl my cousins, Judy, Patty, and I loved to go to the Drive-in.  We liked the Drive-in that was located in Newnan Georgia much better than the one in LaGrange.  We were especially happy when they were showing a double feature.

One Saturday night the Drive-in was having a double feature with Billy Jack as the first movie and a low budget horror movie as the second movie. Billy Jack was a movie that my cousins and I had eagerly waited to see. Since none of us had drivers license we called our friends Bird and Danny to ask if they wanted to go too.  They were more than happy to drive us because Bird had a crush on Judy.

We were intent on the movie while they were showing Billy Jack but once the other movie came on we quickly became bored.  I went to the concession stand for a hotdog and met a boy named Alan.  While talking to Alan he asked if we wanted to go to a haunted bridge in Newnan.  I took him back to the car and introduced him to the rest of the gang.  We then set off for an adventure in ghost hunting.

On the way Alan told us the legend of the bridge.  During the early 50’s a women and her tiny baby drove off the bridge and died. Ever since she supposedly will walk up to cars parked on the bridge looking for her baby.  The occupants of the car must pretend to hand a baby out the car to please the woman.

We sat on the bridge for a few minutes until Bird decided it was too dangerous to be blocking the bridge.  We thought we heard someone walking on the bridge that night.

Nothing else happened so we took Alan home and headed back to my Uncles house.

Weird Phobias

Published by tglisman under just another day Edit This


Most people who have a phobia have one of the more common ones such as the fear of spiders (mine), the fear of heights, (mine) the fear of snakes, the fear of water, (another one of mine) or the fear of ants.  If you have one of these common phobias you know life can sometimes be difficult.  Because I have a fear of water I have never learned to swim.  I am extremely scared of deep, dark water.  Driving off into the Chattahoochee River is one of my worst nightmares.  I will drive over water but I hold my breath until the car reaches the other side.

Some people have very uncommon and unusual phobias.  The most uncommon ones are; the fear of Russians, trees, dolls, freedom, rectums, knowledge, blushing, chopsticks, good news, female genitalia, bald men, knees, peanut butter, laughter, the moon, walking, writing, celery, and other vegetables, looking up, taste, cheese, flutes, beggars, gravity, mirrors, Jews, snow, time, sleep, rooms, stooping, poetry, colors, eyes, clouds, string, squirrels, stars, otters, numbers, words, music, hospitals, water beds, wet dreams, and the Pope.  These are odd phobias indeed.

The Winchester Brothers

Published by tglisman under The Paranormal Edit This

Supernatural

They are a drool worthy duo that hunt and kill demons.  If you have ever watched Supernatural on the CW then you know that already.  The brothers Sam and Dean are played by Jared Padalecki (Friday the 13th) and Jensen Ackles (Days of our Lives, Dark Angel).

When I first read the preview for the show before it even aired I got excited.  We don’t have many good shows about the paranormal on TV much less any with the acting abilities of Padalecki and Ackles.  I talked my daughter into watching the series premier with me and we have been Supernatural fans ever since.  This year is the forth season for the show and it has been picked up for a fifth season. 

With the addition of Misha Collins as the angel Castiel this season has been the best one so far to me.  Supernatural has great storylines, great actors, and nail biting acting. I have some questions that will be answered this year on the show. Will John come back as a ghost?  Will Dean be instructed to kill Sam?  Will Sam turn evil?  How powerful will Sam become?

Tomorrow night will find me with fresh baked Brownies and a coke sitting in front of the TV ready and waiting for my shot of Supernatural for I am a Supernatural junkie.
