An urban legend is a modern folklore story or rumor that is often presented as true. These tales usually involve bizarre, scary, or sensational events and are spread informally through word of mouth or social media. Urban legends often reflect contemporary fears or societal concerns and may be based on real places or events but are exaggerated or distorted over time. They are known for their dramatic, believable details and the way they spread quickly, even though they often lack factual evidence.
