The Bridge at Marlow Crossing

August 1923. A railroad bridge outside Marlow, Kansas. Luna's great-uncle worked the night watch there, alone, for forty-two years. He never spoke about what he saw until the last week of his life. Then he wrote it down in a ledger. Luna found the ledger in a trunk after the funeral. This is what it said: the sound of footsteps on gravel when no train was due, the lantern that went out without wind, the figure that stood at the center of the span every August 17th. The ledger stopped mid-sentence on the final page. Luna went to the bridge herself, one year after he died. She brought a lantern and waited. What she heard was not a train. #TheBridgeAtMarlowCrossing #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #GreatPlains #Kansas #RailroadBridge #NightWatchman #Ledger #Lantern #Footsteps #August17th #FamilyStory #Solitary #Unresolved #Atmospheric #SlowBurn #LunaReads #Anthology Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
