World Urban Legends

Urban Legends from around the world.

There is a scream, everybody looks around. A young girl comes running out of the bathroom with deep claw marks across her face. She has been a victim of Bloody Mary. Urban legends are constantly spreading around the world. Here are some very interesting legends I have heard about:

Bloody Mary

You enter a dark candlelit room. Stand in front of a mirror. If you call her name three times, she is believed to pop out and claw your face.

Bride and Seek

Two newlyweds planned a little game of hide and seek with their guests. Everybody hid except for the groom. It was his job to look for everyone else. He manages to find all the guests. The bride was nowhere to be found. Weeks go by and the bride is still missing. One day, a maid was cleaning the couple's home. In the attic, she found a mysterious trunk. When she opened it, inside laid the rotten body of the missing bride.

Doppelganger

If you see someone that looks exactly like you, it is an omen or warning of death. “Doppelganger” is a German term for double walker.

Neck Scarf

This is the classic story of a girl who wore a scarf around her neck. She would never take it off under any circumstance. As time progressed, she soon good married. Years later, the girl was laying on her deathbed, while her husband was still alive and well. She finally allowed her husband to take off her scarf. Horrified, her head came rolled off her body.

Shades of Death Road

A group of teens were driving down a road in Hacketstown after prom. The driver crashed the car and one of the girls died in her prom dress. Now, teens who drive down that same road will encounter her. She is believed to kill them the same way she had died.

La Llorona

Described as a beautiful girl back in the early 1500's. She had three kids and a husband, whom had left her with the children. Later on, she fell in love with another man. She wanted to get married, but the man refused to marry because she had three children. Since La Llorona wanted to marry him, she drowned her own children. Soon, she realized she had made a mistake. Now, she's a ghost that wanders near bodies of water crying.
