The air hostess, as she passed along the aisle of the plane on the transatlantic flight from
Amsterdam to New York noticed that the baby, nestled between the couple who were asleep, didn't look very well --
in fact it looked extremely ill. Not wanting to disturb anyone she gently lifted up the baby and took it back to her station.
Feeling the baby's forehead, she found it was cold and with a sudden panic she realized that
the infant was dead.
Calling upon a doctor she knew to be on board, he examined the baby and confirmed that, not
only was it dead, but it was embalmed. The child's body had been hollowed out and it was full of the drugs that the couple
were trying to smuggle into the States.
Status: False.
There was a dual-career couple with a little baby. One day the harried father ran out of
the house and put the baby in the backseat car seat to drop off at the daycare center. But he got to thinking about this and
that and forgot to drop the child off. When he went to pick the baby up after work he was told the child had never arrived.
In horror, he ran out to the car to find the child dead of heat exhaustion.
The moral, my aunt says, is that if people want to have their careers they should not have
children.
Status: True.
Some years ago, there was a car crash in Canada. The police located adult and child members
of a family trapped in the crashed car, rescued them and sent them to hospital to recover. The car was towed to an impounding
yard, and the following day police discovered a baby's body frozen to death but otherwise uninjured under one of the seats.
A campaign was then started in Canada to alert rescuers to the fact that there was a "baby on board", which needed
to be located in the event of a crash. If a baby is not on board, the sign is removed.

A young couple were catching a flight to begin a trip of several days, and they had hired a
sitter to care for their baby during their absence.
When it was time to leave for the airport, the baby sitter had not arrived, so they telephoned
her home and learned that she was on her way. They put the baby in its highchair, left the back door open for the sitter,
and rushed to the airport.
When the sitter arrived, the wind had blown the door shut, and it had locked. She thought the
parents either must have taken the baby with them or left it with someone else, so she returned home.
When the couple got back, they found their baby starved to death in its highchair.
Status: False.
Mutilated boy.
Out shopping one day with his mother in a neighbourhood shopping precinct, a boy of about
ten years old went off to the public toilet. When he did not come back, his mother began to get rather worried. Seeing a policeman
passing by, she explained what had happened and the officer went over to the toilet block to look for the boy.
He found him almost immediately lying in a pool of blood in one of the cubicles with a crowd
around him. He was still alive but was in a highly critical condition. According to an eye witness, the poor boy had been
castrated by an ethnic gang of local youths.
Status: False.
Furry collar.
Two girls were home on vacation from school and were staying alone in one of the girl's homes.
It was storming and the electricity went out. While they were lying in bed upstairs, in the dark, they heard a noise. One
was frightened, but the other jumped out of bed and put on her robe. The robe had a furry collar around the neck. She went
downstairs. Quite a bit of time elapsed and the girl upstairs got more and more frightened. At last she heard the shuffle
of feet coming down the hall. At first she was relieved and then she began to worry that it might not be her girl friend,
but someone else. She finally decided that when the person came in she would reach up and touch the person's neck and if she
felt the furry collar, she would know it was her friend. The steps came closer and closer. The door creaked open and at last
the person was right next to her. She reached with both hands and felt the fur and then touched a little higher. All she felt
was a bloody stump where her friend's head had been . . . .

A group of medical students were bored and so they tried to think of ways of livening things
up. Eventually one had the idea of "borrowing" a human foot from the dissecting laboratory and puttting it in his girlfriend's
bed as a joke. She was also a medical student staying at the same hall of residence. The students "obtained" a human foot,
went up to the girl's room and put it in her bed. They thought it would be fun to hear her reactions so they hid round the
corner and waited for her to come home.
The student who had the key realised that he had left it in the door. However, before he could
remove it the girl arrived back and, not thinking, unlocked the door with the key that was in the lock, took it in with her
and locked the door on the other side.
A few moments later they heard her screaming and crying out. They ran to the door and tried
to open it but it was locked. They shouted to her that it was alright but she continued screaming hysterically. At this point
they decided to break down the door. However, it took them a while and they were relieved when the screaming subsided.
Finally, when thye broke in and turned on the lights, they were horrified at what they found.
The girl was sitting in the corner of the room with a glazed expression on her face eating the human foot. The practical joke
had backfired and they had driven her mad.

If you go into the bathroom and look into the mirror with the lights off and the room completely
black, and then say 'Bloody Mary' thirteen times, a woman will appear and scratch your face up/off.
I was told that if you said "Hell Mary" seven times in front of a mirror in a dark room, you
would see Satan's image in the mirror. The story was embellished further by the teller, who claimed that after three "Hell
Mary", the mirror turned red, and that after five an unclear face appeared.
Here's how I always heard the story. You go into a room with a mirror and turn all the lights
off (this works well in a bathroom). You begin, in a whisper, to chant "bloody mary. bloody mary, Bloody Mary", as you continue
to chant your voice should grow louder and louder into a near scream. While you are chanting you should be spinning around
at a medium rate and taking a glimpse in the mirror at each pass. Near the 13th repetition of the words . . .
"she" should appear and...?
A frend of mine said that her roommate tried this and ran out screaming from the bathroom.
She was shaking and appeared genuinely terrified and refused to talk about the incident, but those who were around her when
she came out noticed that her clenched fingers were covered in blood.

This lady had finished her shopping, and she went back to her car with her packages. When she
got to the car, there was someone sitting in the back seat. As she approached, she saw it was an old woman.
She asked the woman what she was doing in her car, and the woman said that she had gotten lost
looking for the bus and got so tired that she just had to sit somewhere to rest, and asked if she could possibly see her way
to driving her home or just to the nearest bus stop.
Well, this lady was suspicious, so she said that she would be right back, and she returned
to the mall and asked security if they could do something about the old woman. When a security guard got to the car, they
found out she wasn't an old woman at all, but a man; and in her purse was a small hatchet.

A couple with children were trying out a new
babysitter. About an hour after they left for a night on the town, they realized they had forgotten to give her their cell
phone number, so one of them called her.
After she wrote down the number, the babysitter asked if she could watch
satellite TV in their bedroom. She had just put the children to bed and wanted to watch a particular show. (The parents didn't
want their children watching too much garbage, so the living room TV did not have satellite channels.)
Well of course
she could watch TV in their room, they replied. The babysitter had one other request: could she put a sheet or blanket over
the clown statue that was in the bedroom? It kind of made her nervous.
Take the children and go to the neighbors,
said whichever parent was talking to her. We'll call the police. We don't have a clown statue.
The police caught the
clown as he was running through the neighborhood.
Status: Undetermined.
A young lady is alone in her apartment. She goes to bed with her dog on the floor beside her.
In the middle of the night, she is woken up by a strange sound. She is alarmed, but reaches down to the dog, who licks her
hand. She is reassured and goes back to sleep.
In the morning, she finds the dog hung in the shower. Where the dog slept, she picks up a note
which reads "Humans can lick too."
Status: Undetermined.
I hope you liked my urban section! it took large amounts of time writing it, so I hope you
enjoyed it. WARNING: I don't think you should try the whole, "bloody
Mary" thingy...
