From the campfire to the digital rumour mill, urban legends have flourished wherever we tell stories. Whether once true, sprouted from half remembered facts or entirely fictional, we have scrutinised these legends for centuries. This book will ferry you across a river of uncanny tales, from classic folklore to contemporary urban legend.
So, check the closet, make sure the skies are clear and delve in if you are ready to imagine the strange.
