There’s no denying that most abandoned bridges have a somewhat eerie feeling about them. Maybe it’s because they’re in great despair. Or perhaps it’s because many of them are located in the middle of nowhere, without a single soul in sight. Whatever the reason, there are several abandoned bridges right here in Alabama that give off an eerie vibe—especially after the sun goes down. Let’s take a look at 10 of these abandoned bridges below.
