Let’s Call The Donkey Lady Bridge Phone Number!

You guys may remember a few months back in April I did a post about The Donkey Lady Bridge just outside of San Antonio, Texas. Well at the end of the post, I did mention that during the spooky season, a phoneline is available where you are supposedly able to speak to The Donkey Lady or at least she is able to communicate with you.

There are many stories as to how The Donkey Lady came to be and why she haunts the Applewhite Bridge but my favorite is this one: a farmer set fire to his home, murdered his children, and left his wife horribly disfigured. Her fingers were melted down to stumps from the heat of the flames, creating hoof-like appendages, and the skin on her face was charred giving her face an elongated, donkey-like appearance. Grieving the loss of her children and the betrayal of her husband, she haunts Elm Creek and torments those who try to cross.

From midnight Oct. 31 through Nov. 6, call the local phone number and each night, a new 45-second message awaits callers to the Donkey Lady Hotline. Some who call the hotline will hear creepy sounds, or sometimes even talk to her if she surprised them by picking up. Others will hear a prerecorded message updated daily, and then apparently every Saturday through Dec. 31. Her story will unfold in a series of segments as she reflects on present-day San Antonio. Now, I have no idea what that means but we will be doing this in our household each evening to see what it is about and you are welcome to a well!

The Donkey Lady hotline: 210-960-3826.

There is no charge for the call and while you are having a chat with her, why not have a drink as well?
