The Haunted Trestle Bridge in Tara, Iowa

Welcome to Iowa Shadow Files, the podcast where we dive into the eerie, the unexplained, and the paranormal stories that lurk just beyond the realm of reality - right here in Iowa. In this episode, we take you on a spine-tingling journey to the haunted Trestle Bridge, located just outside the long-abandoned ghost town of Tara, Iowa.

This infamous bridge has long been the subject of local legends and eerie tales, with whispers of ghostly apparitions, strange noises, and unexplainable events. What happened in Tara to leave such a mystery, and why does the Trestle Bridge seem to be a focal point of paranormal activity?

Join us as we uncover the mysterious history behind the bridge, explore eyewitness accounts, and attempt to unravel some of the other questions surrounding this site. From phantom trains to eerie voices on the wind, the Trestle Bridge is not just a forgotten relic of the past—and it points to a lot of other history happening around trains in the late 1800s to early 1900s.
