Urban legends are like stories that come to life in our neighborhoods. They feel real because they’re shared between friends and family, making them seem closer than regular fairy tales. People believe them because the stories sound true and can be relatable, like a ghost haunting a school or a teacher who eats their students.
Examples
- A friend tells you about someone who got stuck in a vending machine at school.
- Your teacher says there’s a ghost that haunts the hallway after lunch.
- You hear a story about a boy who disappeared on his way to the store.
