Twin Falls, Idaho

The Old Towne Bridge crosses Rock Creek on Shoshone Street South in Twin Falls, on the site of the old wooden "Singing Bridge," replaced in the early 1990s and nicknamed for the sound of children's voices some claimed to hear there at night. Local legend holds that in the early 20th century, a man abducted and killed as many as eight children in the area, leaving behind rock carvings of his victims' faces along Rock Creek and a self-portrait of himself, nicknamed "the Devil's Henchman." Time and vandalism have worn away the children's faces, though the Henchman carving remains faintly visible; no historical record confirms the killings took place.
Public road bridge on Shoshone Street over Rock Creek canyon, built in 1993 to replace the 1920 Singing Bridge. The legend belongs to the older bridge and could not be verified. Stay on the sidewalk, and do not stop on the bridge.
