Used with permission]] There is not enough available information for this section. Several messages have been sent to the [https://www.facebook.com/HauntedToledo Haunted Toledo Facebook page] providing updated information about this legend. Local residents refer to this legend as ''Screaming Mimi Bridge.'' In one message, Justin B. writes, "''I know I've posted on this topic previously trying to figure out where this bridge is. I started thinking about it and I think I figured out where it was at. There are/were two steel girder or, as the sign says on the one, wrought iron bridges in Findlay. Both crossed the Blanchard River. One crossed the river near River Bend Park, which was replaced by a covered bridge in 2009 and was moved a few hundred feet and was incorporated into a trail that goes back to the campground at River Bend. The other one was located near the old Findlay resevoir. That one was replaced several years ago, way before the one by River Bend, but there is a sign there talking about that bridge. So I think Screaming Mimi Bridge is that one. And to add to the story there is a property near the second mentioned bridge with a family plot located on it, including currently inhabited house.''" Another message. from Jenny H., adds, "''I just took my teenage children there this past week. It is not where the covered bridge is. It was a steel or iron bridge right beside a small cemetery. The bridge was removed and replaced with a bridge that has a metal railing no higher than your waist. You turn off your engine and lights and honk 3 times. And you should hear the screaming lady.''" Sean McAdoo. writes, "''I've heard it referred to as the Screaming Mimi Bridge, used to be on Trail 241 going into the river bend. That was an old wire bridge that's either been torn down or moved.''"
