WHAT IS AN URBAN LEGEND
AN URBAN LEGEND, URBAN MYTH, URBAN TALE, OR CONTEMPORARY LEGEND, IS A FORM OF MODERN FOLKLORE CONSISTING OF STORIES THAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE BEEN BELIEVED BY THEIR TELLERS TO BE TRUE, AND OFTEN POSSESS HORROR IMPLICATIONS THAT ARE BELIEVABLE TO THEIR AUDIENCE.
THE RAKE
- During the summer of 2003, events in the northeastern United States involving a strange, human-like creature sparked brief local media interest before an apparent blackout was enacted. Little or no information was left intact, as most online and written accounts of the creature were mysteriously destroyed.

AFTER THE ATTACK, HE STARTS TO GO INSANE AND BURNS OFF HIS EYELIDS SO THAT HE CAN NEVER BLINK WHEN HE LOOKS AT HIMSELF IN THE MIRROR, AND CARVES HIS MOUTH IN A WAY THAT HE CAN NOW ONLY SMILE. HE THEN STABS HIS PARENTS TO DEATH, AFTER HIS MOTHER TOLD HIS FATHER TO GET HIS GUN. HE THEN HEADS TO HIS OLDER BROTHER, LIU, WHO IS SLEEPING AT THE TIME. LIU WAKES UP, ONLY TO FIND THAT HIS BROTHER IS ABOUT TO KILL HIM AS WELL. HE PROCEEDS TO TELL LIU TO "GO TO SLEEP".

SLENDER
- The Slender Man (also known as Slenderman) is a fictional supernatural character that originated as an Internet meme created by Something Awful forums user Eric Knudsen (a.k.a. "Victor Surge") in 2009. It is depicted as resembling a thin, unnaturally tall man with a blank and usually featureless face, wearing a black suit. Stories of the Slender Man commonly feature him stalking, abducting or traumatizing people; particularly children.[1] The Slender Man is not confined to a single narrative, but appears in many disparate works of fiction, mostly composed online.[
