Urban legends. Which one comes to mind first? Rumors about drug deals happening in areas where running shoes hang from powerlines? What about Slenderman? The urban legend that led young girls to attempt to kill their friend? They are stories that connect us. In fact, often it's the cousin of a friend's friend that we swear knows the legend to be truth. When did urban legends get their start? How do they spread like wildfire? Which ones are most prevalent in your corner of the planet?

I'll dive into all that, and explore one specific cemetery that's been impacted in a negative way from persistent urban legends.
