Urban Legends


These are legends that normally happen to a friend of a friend of a friend of yours. Some examples of Urban Legends are: Some people used to think that fast food restraunts used worms to make their hamburgers. Another example of an Urban Legend is, some people think that terrible people poison Halloween candy and then try to give it to kids. We are a group of kids from Deer Park Elementary in Centreville, Virginia. We are collecting folklore for this club at school called Web Weavers. Web Weavers meet after school on Tuesdays. We all decided to join this club because we wanted to make up a web site for all people to read.

Pay Phone Danger

Warn people you care about not to use public pay phones because a gang is going around applying skin eating acid to the receiver and buttons.

Belly Button Cancer

 

I heard if you get your belly button pierced you could get cancer!

 

Night Drivers

Don't drive around at night with your headlights on, and flash them on a suspicious figure or else he'll come and beat you up really bad.

 

Movies ....H.I.V.?

 

Check seats before siting down in a movie theater because a girl sat down and felt a prick. She didn't think it was anything. When the movie ended she was bleeding. It turned out there was a needle in the chair with the H.I.V. virus on it.

 

Licky Tattoos Linked to Drugs

 

I heard from my mom which heard it from many people that people put drugs in licky tattoos!

 Razor Apples

 

I heard from a friend,of a friend,of a cousin that they found a razor blade in their caramel apple!

 

Pay Phone Danger 2

 

Never stick your finger in a pay phone coin return slot because bad people or teenagers might stick deadly needle's up there to try to hurt you.

 

Kidney Theft

People say that there is a kidney theft ring in New Orleans. Some say that people who get their kidneys stolen, they will wake up in a bathtub full of ice. (The reason that this isn't true is because "The National Kidney Foundation" has repeatedly asked for requests for actual victims of organ thieves to come forward and tell their stories. So far they have None. None as in Zero).

 

$200 Cookie Recipe

Neiman Marcus ( A department store in New York) that had a cafeteria was selling cookies. This lady asked the cook how much the cookie recipe cost. The cook said 2. The lady thought that he meant 2 dollars. So she said just put that on my credit card. What she didn't know was that the cook meant 2 hundred dollars. The lady didn't know that until she got her credit card bill. For a revenge, she would tell everybody the recipe. (This isn't really true because Neiman Marcus never did sell cookies).

 

 Business Card Mania

People say that there was a little boy who lived in England and was dying of cancer. One of death wishes was to have everyone send him their business cards. (Craig Sherman was not really dying of cancer and he would really like for everybody to stop sending him their business cards. Craig Sherman is no longer a "little boy").
