1. A creature stole children from the streets to eat “NYC (specifically Staten Island) has an urban legend about a weird creature/man named Cropsey that steals children off the streets and brutally murders, and eats them. Apparently the myth was super popular in the ‘70s, and ‘80s I think but as it turns out, it’s totally based on a real dude. There’s a documentary about him, and everything.” ~

2. There is a ghost of a woman who cries for her missing children “La Llorona (‘The Weeping Woman’) is a legendary ghost prominent in folklore of Latin America. This myth has a tendency to take aspects of an urban legend and is present throughout Mexican culture. According to the tradition, La Llorona is the ghost of a woman who lost her children and now cries while looking for them in the river, often causing misfortune to those who are near or hear her Anyways she’s the lady in white. I was driving once in the fog an could have sworn I saw a women standing between a row of orange orchards. I turned around and looked for her but didn’t see anything. The orchard had been flooded and no signs of show tracks in the mud. The lady in white has been seen in many different cultures all over the world during different times.” ~

3. The Dancing Girl is seen at midnight on the grave of her lover “Whilst at primary school in my little village in North Somerset (UK), the local vicar told us about the ‘Dancing Girl’ who could be seen at midnight dancing on the grave of her lover at his church. She was a daughter of a well-to-do family, and he was of a lower class and died mysteriously (probably murdered by the rich family). She then killed herself by hanging from a tree in the churchyard over his grave. Anyone who saw her dancing would die swiftly soon after, which the vicar said that he had. I think he told us around Halloween, but it could have been the last talk he ever gave us (memory fuzzy). No-one ever saw him again, and the assumption was that the legend had got to him. If he knew he was leaving his position, that is one hell of a way to go out. But what if…” ~— Alan_Wakes_Torch

4. There is a monster who cries like a baby and roars like a demon “I am from Bosnia and here we have a so called ‘monster’ who makes very creepy and disturbing noises such as a baby crying and some demonic roaring. We call it Drekavac which means something like Screamer. It usually appears in the woods near a town called Drvar where the inhabitants have reported hearing the monster cries during the night mostly when it dawns. Others also report it usually deep in the woods. The people who encountered it claim that it is a very small goblin-like monster with claws, big head, pointy ears and sharp teeth. Those who have encountered it claim they had to carry the monster until morning as it jumps on the back of the poor guy and refuses to get off until morning. This was more famous in the early 2010s and some time during 2008 but the sightings are ultra rare now.” ~

5. “Black eyed children.
Black eyed children try to sneak into your home at night. You’re sitting in your den watching TV, it’s probably about 8:00 PM, when you hear a knock at the door. You go to answer the door and are greeted by two young children. One looks to be about twelve, the other no older than eight. Brothers, most likely. They give you some sob story about how they’re lost, can’t find their way home, and they ask you if they can come in and use the phone to call their mother for a ride. You’re just about to let them in when you notice something off. Their eyes. Their eyes are a deep, soulless black. The inconceivable fear that takes you over is like no other. They’re still asking you to let them in, just for a minute. Let them in. Let them in. You slam the door in their face. But they still cry out, banging on the door. You try to go back to watching tv but they do not relent. They follow you, tapping on the windows, begging to be let in.
I never answer my door after 9, at least, not without peaking out the window first.” ~

6. A girl fell onto train tracks, was cut in half, and is now a vengeful spirit. “The bunny man legend (me and my friends even went to bunny man bridge one Halloween) and the Teke Teke one, the girl who fell on train tracks and got cut in half and is now a vengeful spirit, dragging herself looking for other people to cut in half if they can’t get away from her fast enough. I believe in a lot of urban legends honestly, I think they’re so interesting!” ~

7. There is a certain judge with a cursed headstone “In Maine, the headstone of a judge is supposedly cursed. The story goes that he sentenced a woman to death for witchcraft. Her last words were, ‘I’ll dance on your grave.’ A mark that looks like a leg appears on his grave marker. It’s been cleaned/replaced, but the leg comes back. I’ve seen pictures of the grave and want to believe the story so much.” ~

8. An evil man with an axe waited by the side of the road “That an old, flannel wearing woodsman named Wee Willy roamed the woods with an axe at night waiting for unsuspecting motorists who breakdown or pull over for intimacy. I used to speed through the woods where there aren’t typically lights but also afraid of hitting a dear and getting stuck in the middle of nowhere.” ~

9. A college girl was brutally murdered inside her dorm “Aren’t you glad you didn’t turn on the light? This one was big when I was in college. College girl going out to party loses her key and asks roommate to leave dorm room door unlocked so she can get in later. Girl decides to spend the night with boyfriend but needs to grab her books from the room for classes the next day. She enters the unlocked room in the dark, grabs her books and leaves. The next day she returns to the dorm to find police outside of her room. Her roommate has been brutally murdered and written in blood on the mirror in her room is ‘Aren’t you glad you didn’t turn on the light?'” ~
