That is a clip from the slender man trailer.
This movie will be coming out this summer- and we are going to be talking about slenderman
a little bit further down on this list- so you don’t want to miss that.
Hey guys im Court McGinley and welcome back to the most amazing top 5.
Before we get started I want to remind you to stay tuned until the end of the video as
I will be answering your questions and reading comments.
Also don’t forget to leave your questions down below so I can answer them in an upcoming
video.
Alright lets get started on out list of the top 5 scariest urban legends in America.
Starting in at our number 5 spot--Bloody Mary- Yeah this is one that im really not a fan
of whatsoever.
So as the legend has it the evil spirit of Bloody Mary can be summoned by chanting bloody
Mary 3 times in a mirror in a dark room that’s only lit by a candle.
After you say her name 3 times its said that the spirit of Mary will appear in the mirror
as either a corpse covered in blood- a ghost- or a witch.
Once you see her and look in her eyes she leans forward and either claws your eyes out
or she pulls you into the mirror and keeps your soul in there with her for all eternity.
Yeah this is a game that some teens play at sleepovers.
I personally never have because I believe in spirits and im not taking that risk.
There are many origin stories when it comes to Mary some people say she was a witch that
dabbled in the black arts- and some people say she was a regular woman who was killed
in a car crash.
Then theres the most popular opinion which is that shes Mary Worth of the Salem Witch
Trials.
But regardless- its probably best just to not say her name into a mirror.
In at number 4--Arent you glad you didn’t turn on the light?
So in this urban legend we have 2 college roommates.
One is outgoing and likes to party we will call her Meg and the other mostly keeps to
herself and is kind of a book worm and we will call her Julie.
These 2 were in the same science class and had a midterm the next day- but that night
there was also a party so the more outgoing roommate Meg goes to the party- and tries
to get her roommate Julie to come but she decides to stay in and study.
So its 2am when the Meg gets back to the dorm and she goes to turn on the light but stops
herself because she doesn’t want to wake Julie.
At this point Meg is kind of worried about the midterm but she figures she will wake
up early in the morning and ask Juile to study with her.
In the a.m Megs alarm clock goes off- she wakes up and goes to wake Julie.
Julie is on her stomach and doesn’t seem to wake up.
So Meg flips her over and Julie had this wide eyed look on her face.
So meg then turns on the desk lamp to see better and sees that theres blood all over
Julies books.
She looks back at Julie and realizes shes been stabbed multiple times and that shes
dead.
Meg sets into a panic and goes to run for help but trips- when shes on the ground she
looks up and sees written on the wall in julies blood aren’t you glad you didn’t turn
on the light?
Yes her roommate was being murdered when she walked in.
Ahh..
I remember hearing this one when I was younger and it freaked me the F out.
At number 3--The Clown Statue- In this urban legend that surfaced in the early 2000s we
learn about a teen girl who is babysitting for a wealthy family.
So this family has a huge mansion and the parents of the children tell the baby sitter
that once the kids are asleep she can watch tv but it will have to be in this one specific
room in the house because they don’t want her wondering around as theres the potential
she could get lost- yes the house was that big.
So she gets the kids to bed and then goes to the assigned room to watch tv.
For the first few minutes things are fine but then she gets this creepy feeling like
shes being watched.
She then looks off in the corner of the room and notices this little clown statue facing
her staring directly at her.
She just gets more and more freaked out by this statue that she ends up calling the childrens
father and asks if she can switch rooms because the clown statue is freaking her out.
The dad then with panic in his voice tells her to grab the kids- go to the neighbours
house and call the police.
So she does just that- once outside of the house she calls the dad back and asks whats
going on.
He tells her the family doesn’t have a clown statue.
But that the kids have been complaining about a clown watching them as they slept for weeks.
And up until now the parents just assumed the kids were having nightmares and imagining
things.
The police were called to the mansion and they told the family that the clown statue
was actually a little person dressed in a costume who had been watching the family for
months.
During the day he would lurk up in the attic- and at night he would come down and sneak
around the house.
Coming In at number 2--Backseat killer- In this legend we have a woman who is driving
home late one night after having some drinks with her friends.
Shes driving on a secluded highway when she notices a pair of headlights coming up behind
her.
At first it seems although the car is going to pass her so it pulls up beside her.
She notices a man is driving the car.
But then almost immediately he pumps the breaks and goes back to following behind her.
And right away she gets extremely nervous.
I mean you cant blame her.
Here she is driving in a secluded area- not another car in sight and then this man is
just following her.
The man then speeds up and gets dangerously close to her back bumper- and starts flashing
his lights.
At this point the female driver is freaking out- she doesn’t look back and just rushes
to get home.
The car follows her all the way home- the whole way flashing his lights and even putting
his high beams on all the way up until they are in her driveway.
Once home she runs from her car to the front door- once at the door she looks back and
sees the man got out of the car and is running towards her.
Hes notices shes nervous so he stops and yells to her to call the police and lock her door.
When the police arrive she finds out the reason the man was really following her home.
Turns out the man behind her was actually trying to save her.
You see when he pulled up beside her to switch lanes he saw the silhouette of a man with
a butcher knife rising up from the back seat .Oh- my -god.
Im not going to lie I watch way to much criminal minds and like true crime shows so im always
scared if im out late at night someone just going to be like hiding in my back seat.
That’s why I always check.
Yes it might be a little paranoid but better safe then sorry right?
Alright and before we jump into number 1- I just want to remind you guys to please show
us some love by giving this video a big thumbs up- and subscribe to our channel.
And once again stay tuned until the end of the video as I will be answering your questions.
And if you would like to be featured in an upcoming video then make sure you leave those
questions below.
And in at number 1--Slenderman- Now I talked about Slender man on our Scary pasta list
as well- hes just on all the scary lists and for good reason.
But Ill leave the link for that list below- so you can check it our after.
So Slender man appeared online back in 2009.
He has a featureless face and is really skinny and is abnormally tall - with really long
limbs and fingers that he uses to scratch at childrens windows to wake them from their
sleep.
He lives out in the woods as he like to blend in with the trees and darkness.
Slender man is said to prey on children in particular- but also those who become obsessed
with his existence.
He stays in the woods until a child makes eye contact with him or dreams of him.
Once that happens he comes and finds you and follows you wherever you go.
Once he captures you youll wake up and he will be standing above you.
He asks you one question- and if you get it right he breaks both your arms and legs.
But if you get it wrong he will stick his fingers down your throat and pull out your
heart.
The only way to escape his torture is to serve him and carry out what he wants done.
There have also been stories in the news of teenagers killing their friends because they
claimed slender man told them to do it.
Another teen set her house on fire because she was instructed by slenderman to do so.
So yeah lot of bizarre stories happening around this legend.
Also as I mentioned on the other list Theres even a slender man movie coming out this summer
so that’s terrifying.
Apparently its going to follow 4 teen girls who perform a ritual to debunk the lore of
a tall thin horrifying figure known as the slenderman.
They soon fear that the legend is true when one of them suddenly goes missing.
