Probably every single European bridge called "Devil's Bridge" has a story about how he was tricked into making it in one single night and then denied his prize because

  • they made a rooster sing before dawn because the contract specified that as the deadline
  • they made an animal cross the bridge first because the first soul was to be taken per contract
  • they bully him into giving it up with some divine intercession.
