As a life time resident of Trussville I know the Good and Bad
of this Town. Its a very Haunted place with a very DARK history. 
The story goes, back in the beginning of the 19th century around 1802 to be exact. ( This is only 11 years into the making of this city) It was a cold Winter, two young lovers lived in this town and met nightly at a secret spot. Reason being, their families were rivals.They absolutley despised eachother. But their young love was much to be reckoned with. The girl, a beautiful brunette at the age of 20, was named Belle Victors. Her beau, a strong and handsome man was 21. And his name was Dominic Kingsley. The couple was so in love they met as much as possible near the Cahaba river, even on the coldest and stormiest nights.They also had to be very careful about their meetings as not to get caught. So they had a method for their meetings, When they were to meet one of them would light a single white candle near the rivers edge. There was a path near the river so when the other walked down it at night if they saw the candle burning they would soon meet at "The spot". Things started to get rough for Belle, food was scarce and Dominic's family and hers were fighting worse than ever. So on a dreaded stormy night she went off to light the candle. She really wanted to see and hold her lover so her problems would go away. The rivers waters were especially high and the current was very strong on this night. While bending over to place the candle near the rivers edge she lost her balance and fell in. Moments later she had Drowned. On his walk on the path Dominic noticed the candle and hurried to their spot. He waited for hours but Belle never showed. So he went home for the night. Early the next morning her body was found much further down downstream by a local fisherman. Wearing her simple white dress, her icy blue eyes staring off at nothing as if looking for her soulmate. When Dominic heard this news he rushed to the body. His life was over to him, his soulmate was gone. Later that night he went to the rivers edge (where they placed the candles) and lit a single white candle. Then he hanged himself from a nearby oak tree. Thats the story two young lovers who's lives ended too soon. But thats not the last that was seen or heard of them Numerous accounts of "Ghostly activities" have occured The spot where the candles were lit is now known as the Cahaba bridge. Its located in Civitan Park. The tree that Dominic Hung himself from is long gone. But the spot is still haunted. (Its about 15 feet from the Bridge) At night (usually around midnight) you will see a woman in a white dress wandering the rivers edge. Reports of people seeing and trying to talk to her usually ended in her vanishing. But one thing is always the same. They all spoke of her Icy blue eyes. Dominics ghost is a bit scarier than Belles. Reports of his ghost go, On stormy nights you will see a pale young man lighting a white candle near the rivers edge, when spoken to, he will turn to face you only to reveal a black void where his eyes should be. Then he vanishes

There are many other strange things that happen there

- Voices can be heard

- Dim lights have been seen at night

- Screams have been heard

- Crying has been heard the most

- And sometimes late at night when couples are at the park on the bridge, when they look over the railing into the water they will see a ghostly woman looking from the bottom of the river Looking with those Icy blue eyes.
