Silver Springs' Bridal Chamber | Campfire Tales
Long before Florida’s theme parks and beach resorts, travelers came south to see a wonder of nature — the crystal waters of Silver Springs, so clear you can see straight through the earth. But beneath that glassy surface lies a place locals say was never meant to be seen — a dark, circular vent known as the Bridal Chamber. Legend tells of a love forbidden by pride, a promise sealed with a jeweled bracelet, and two souls who refused to be parted, even by death. Some say on moonlit nights, the water still stirs above that limestone cave — as if something down there remembers. Want to Listen to Southern Gothic Ad-Free?
