Urban Legends: Slenderman
Urban Legends are modern myths that are often passed off as true and frequently involve supernatural events or eerie figures. They spread through word of mouth or the internet and change over time.
Example: The legend of Slenderman is particularly well-known on the internet, especially in forums and social media platforms. It originated in 2009 from a post on the Something Awful forum. The legend describes Slenderman as a tall, faceless figure wearing a black suit, who stalks and abducts children. He is often depicted as having tentacle-like appendages and is said to lurk in forests or abandoned places.
