today's theme: urban legends

Back in my day, we didn't have any of these fancy-dancy 'creepy pasta' on those old computers! We had urban legends, and that's how we liked it!

Urban legends are that unique type of creepy folklore that varies from place to place--but always shares an underlying theme of something wrong happening. Whether that "something wrong" is the ghost of a vengeful mother coming out of your mirror to claw your eyes out or it's the presence of killers who hide needles inside payphones. ("What's a payphone, grandma?" Shut up, Billy.)

What are some of your favorite urban legends? Ones that scared you the most?

Are there any special twists on urban legends in your area? Or totally unique legends?

AKA those with no face

As a child I was equal parts fascinated and terrified, but now as an older person, it's more skewed in favour of fascination than terror.

Aside: I'm also a huge nerd for Lafcadio Hearn's Kwaidan in general, as well as the film that is based on it. SO GOOD. ♥

Forgot to mention that the reason why it's an urban legend in my case is because I live in a region where such things are rumoured to have been seen, even nowadays.
