An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge is set during the American Civil War. It opens as a man is about to be hanged from the Owl Creek Bridge by Union soldiers. He is dropped between the railroad trusses of the bridge.
The second section is a flashback, showing the man, Peyton Farquhar, a slave-owner and planter, at home on his plantation. A soldier stops for a drink and tells him that the Union troops have taken the Owl Creek Bridge, but they are not watching it closely. He informs Farquhar that someone could easily sabotage the bridge by burning the drift wood that surrounds it.
The third section opens with Farquhar falling through the air. He swings at the end of the rope and then feels himself falling in the water. He knows the rope has snapped. He swims through the creek as the soldiers fire at him. He escapes, wandering through the woods to his plantation. Just as he is about to embrace his wife, he feels a snap at the back of his neck. He dies, hanging from the Owl Creek Bridge. The entire escape scene, which is rendered with great detail, was all a delusion.
