We all grew up with some form of Urban Legends causing us sleepless-ness, or fun with friends, or fear of the dark. Urban Legends are a staple in our lives as know it! These Legends shift geographically, and stories change over time as new fears are introduced. Slender Man is a new-er Urban Legend that is scary as shit! Come check out the history of Urban Legends, and the birth of Slender Man with Beauty and the Bitch! We talk about the forthcoming film featuring Slender Man, and the grisly crime committed by two pre-teens that have helped (further) popularize this horrific creature that prays on children! What are some of your favorite Urban Legends? How does Slender Man make you feel on a scale of 0- OH SHIT GET HIM OUT OF HERE, I’LL NEVER SLEEP AGAIN?
