Urban legends are not true. Urban legends are stories that have been past on from generation to generation. They consist of myth and sometimes Horror. The term "urban" is used to differentiate modern legend from traditional folklore in pre-industrial times and does not refer to an urban area. This is a term that has been used since 1968. The most common internet source of debunking "urban legends" is snopes.com.
