Cry Baby Hollow
Cry Baby Hollow, situated along a secluded rural stretch near Hartselle in Morgan County, Alabama, is one of the region's most famous urban legends. The site centers on an old wooden and iron bridge crossing a dark, heavily wooded creek bed. According to regional folklore dating back to the early twentieth century, an infant tragically perished at the creek during a horse-drawn wagon or early automobile accident. Drivers crossing the bridge at night frequently report hearing disembodied baby cries echoing through the trees, sudden stalling of car engines, and strange phantom headlights following closely behind.
