What if the stories that kept you up at night as a kid weren’t just stories? In this episode you'll learn what really happened on Lovers' Lane in 1946, why the "check your backseat" warning exists, and how many times hotel guests complained about a smell before someone finally looked under the bed. This is the truth behind the terror, and it's somehow worse than the stories you remember.
Lets pull back the curtain on 4 urban legends we all grew up hearing and the unsolved cases that started them all.
