I think there's some weird attachment about bridges within the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, right? Like the Headless Horsemen cannot cross the specific bridge or something right?
Also I think there's something about vampires being unable to cross running water (ie run across a bridge and your safe if the water is running)
Answer- If you say goodbye to a friend on a bridge, you will never see them again.More Information
The superstitions about bridges seem to stem from bridges being symbolic of the "crossing over" from life to death.
It was believed that the "Devil" would claim the soul of the first one to cross a newly constructed bridge. This resulted in an animal being herded across the bridge first.
Many people in Europe will not cross a bridge nor go through a tunnel when a train is passing above or below them.
Many people will not cross a bridge behind a coffin or hearse.
Bridge builders have been know to add wine, a coin or a bit of iron to the mortar used in placing the keystone to ensure the future good fortune of the bridge.
