He's tall. He's faceless. He lurks in the woods, on playgrounds, and in the corners of blurry photographs. Slenderman isn't just another urban legend—he's the internet's first viral monster.In this episode, Amber and Gina uncover the eerie origins of Slenderman. From his 2009 birth on the Something Awful forums to his rapid spread across creepypasta sites, YouTube series like Marble Hornets, and viral games like Slender: The Eight Pages, Slenderman became the perfect modern boogeyman.But the story didn't stay online. In 2014, two 12-year-old girls in Wisconsin lured their friend into the woods and stabbed her 19 times, claiming they did it to appease Slenderman. The victim survived, but the case shocked the world and forced everyone to reckon with the power of online folklore.

Don't answer the phone when you're babysitting, know that noise was not just the wind, and never say “I'll be right back” because today, we're getting a broader understanding of urban legends: the stories that may not be true but spread so much it seems like they should be. Why do we love them? And why do they linger?sources: https://www.rd.com/list/scary-urban-legends/https://youtu.be/S4Qq1htzd_0?si=W5YkFOYPdqXosKf0https://crimereads.com/why-our-fascination-with-urban-legends-will-never-die/https://youtu.be/9ofcLGx5VQA?si=nFe9GwKGIgePAagvBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/broads-next-door--5803223/support.

In this episode of Movie Torture, they finish up Hannah's least favorite month and conclude it with 1998's "Urban Legend," Baby Hands Brad reminisces about seeing the Noxzema girl on the big screen, while the Gothfather Jacob insists the first victim was offed for her horrendous singing and laments never discovering the goth dating site that could have changed his life. The First Lady Hannah provides a compelling argument for why every character deserved their fate, and MTD's presence is as mysterious as the film's plot twists. Join us as we debate whether the killer was more motivated by revenge or just a bad hair day, and why this movie is somehow a cult classic despite its best efforts to be anything but.

Welcome to Window Dressings: Halloween bonus episode!!!! This year, I am talking about the classic teen-softcore horror film Urban Legend. The film has an ensemble cast that includes Tara Reid, Joshua Jackson, Rebecca Gayheart, and everyone's favorite hot bad boy turned alleged sexual predator, Jared Leto. It's in the same vein as I Know What You Did Last Summer and I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, which have both been Halloween special episodes from years past. The most significant difference is that the killer matters way more in this film than it did in the I Know What You Did Franchise, and there is a redhead in this one. It's also worth noting that the writer, Silvia Horta, also wrote Ugly Betty, which I know hits for the mid-twenties to late twenty-something crowd. Mary Claire Hannan designs the costumes.

Both of Dan's stories come from Thailand. Thailand has a LOT of supernatural stories!  We begin in Bangkok where we explore an abandoned and supposedly haunted skyscraper.  Then, we'll head to one of Thailand's biggest college campuses, Chiang Mai University, to examine a few of the resident spirits there. And learn a bit about the relationship between Thai culture and the spirit world along the way.  Then, Lynze has three very different stories this week. We begin in a hospital with a patient who raises hell in life... and maybe in death. Then, we head to Nevada to hear one persons harrowing tale of being chased in the dark. We wrap up this week in Sweden where a young man hopes to get lucky with a new love interest but goes home with something far more interesting! Scared To Death LIVE! 5th Annual Halloween Show!  https://www.moment.co/scaredtodeath/scaredtodeath-true-tales-of-hallows-eve-5Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

It's one of the simplest but most unsettling urban legends ever told: a girl comforts herself at night by letting her dog lick her hand—only to find out in the morning that her dog is dead, and the intruder has left a message scrawled on the mirror: “Humans can lick too.”In this episode, Amber and Gina dive deep into the chilling urban legend known as The Licked Hand (or Humans Can Lick Too). With an extended campfire-style narration, sarcastic commentary, and true crime context, they explore why this story continues to haunt us. From home invasion cases like Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker, to unsolved intruder murders, the legend reflects very real fears about safety inside our own homes.
