So, yesterday I was reading a manga that involved multiple urban legends. A few of them honestly did scare me a little while reading but nothing was that bad, until I was going to bed last night.

I couldn't go to sleep because I was afraid that there would be some guy underneath my bed waiting to kill me with an axe. Haha yeah, that was the first time I had ever slept with the lights on

But anyways, the manga is called 'Hanako to Guuwa no Tera Manga' you can read it here you if want. www.mangareader.net/1147/hanako-to-guuwa-no-tera.html

That wasn't the first time my overactive imagination made me lose sleep over something that had to do with urban legends(blood mary scared me too, after watching the episode on supernatural, I couldn't stand in front of or look into a mirror for a few months)

Anywho, onto the original post of this thread, what is the scariest urban legend you have heard? How long did it stay with you? Or how did it affect you?

Kuchisake-onna~
(aka, the slit-mouthed woman)
and.. oh gosh, i'm terrified of walking alone, or going outside at night.
I think she might come up to me and go "RAWR!" and cut my mouth open. o.o
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuchisake-onna <--- that's all about her creeperness.

Ahh I've heard of that one! It was actually in the manga I mentioned before, but I have heard it before reading it too. That one is kind of frightening >.<

i know!! :O
Except it wasn't as scary in deh manga (im readin dat now, )
It's just the concept of a woman, a seemingly normal woman, will just come up and ask me a two-wayed question... either answer i'd give.. would kill me -_-
except for "you look normal!" or "ehh, so-so" then i'd run.. :3
XD

haha yeah. Or, In the manga it says that if you run a certain distance or give her something(flowers, I think?) she will get scared and run away. Then you are safe haha, it's kind of interesting.

xD i don't think i can run 100 meters in 3 seconds.. o.o maybe?
i dunno... and im not a guy so the flower thing is not for meh.. nooo, hmm... i can give her something delicious though! hmm, pocky would do... but im not going to share >:3
Ahh.. but the man with the axe kinda scares me... o.o
*looks under bed* im keep meh pepper spray with me tonight!
