urban legend

Urban legends have captivated us from ancient eras to the modern day; a deep dive into scary lore and 'could be true' tales about Bigfoot, Slender Man, the Suicide Forest and beyond.

Hell Night
Hell Night is a bodacious 1981 horror-a-thon starring the tantalizin’ ta-tas of Linda “Your Mother Sucks Cocks in Hell” Blair. (Hey, we mean chickens, okay? CHICKENS!) Linda was last seen writhing around in a bed of pukey pea soup in The Exorcist, all the while flicking the bean with a crucifix (my, our mind is dirty this morning), and can’t be bothered to explain how she went from that undeniable classic to this, well, less-than-classic.

The Library of Unwritten Streams
Sasha had been streaming on Twitch for two years, with little to show for it besides a few loyal followers and a collection of half-finished playthroughs. So when a new user, “Archivist_00,” dropped into her chat one night and whispered, “You’ve been invited to The Library,” she assumed it was a joke. But the link they posted led to a login page that looked oddly like Twitch—except the logo was a black book instead of a purple chat bubble. Against her better judgment, she clicked.

The Letters from the Watcher: Westfield’s Suburban Nightmare. Content Warning.
Six bedrooms. A sprawling lawn. A quiet, tree-lined street in one of New Jersey’s safest towns. In June 2014, Derek and Maria Broaddus closed on 657 Boulevard in Westfield for \$1.3 million. They’d worked for years to give their three children this life — the kind of neighborhood where nothing bad ever happens.

The Girl in the Elevator: The Haunting of the Cecil Hotel. Content Warning.
Built in 1924 in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, the Cecil began as a glamorous stop for travelers. Marble floors, gilded fixtures, and a grand lobby that promised prosperity. But over the decades, the dream curdled. The hotel’s location—just blocks from Skid Row—and its reputation for crime and suicide drew the broken, the desperate, and the dangerous.

The Mirror in Room 313
Rain lashed against the cracked windows of Hillview Manor as Adeel pulled his jacket tighter, stepping through the front door. The wind howled behind him like a voice trying to say something just out of earshot. The lobby was dim, lit by a single bulb that buzzed faintly, casting long shadows across peeling wallpaper.

The Last Letter in Room 6B
When Claire rented the tiny apartment in the old brick building on Oak Street, she wasn’t looking for charm—just cheap rent and a place close to work. The peeling wallpaper, creaky floors, and drafty windows didn’t matter. What mattered was that it was hers.

The Mirror in the Basement Wasn’t Empty…
1. The House Nobody Wanted Emily had just turned sixteen when her parents moved into a dusty old house at the edge of town. It was big—three stories, a huge garden, tall windows—but something about it felt... hollow. Cold.

The Lost Floor of St. Damien’s Hospital. Content Warning.
St. Damien’s Hospital had been dying long before the city decided to put it out of its misery. Whole wings were abandoned. Wallpaper peeled like sunburned dead skin. The air reeked of bleach and mold. A hospital that once saved lives now hoarded silence like a secret. The emergency ward had shut down over fifteen years ago. No one came here anymore. No one stayed.
