Summary: Pretty Freaky
Review: This is a pretty entertaining compilation of urban folklore. Please take note, however, anyone who might be expecting a scholarly tome -- THIS IS PRESENTED IN THE FORMAT OF A COMIC BOOK. Be aware of that. Still, it's a lot of fun. Every supposedly true story you've ever been told, that "honestly" happened to your brother-in-law's mechanic's bartender's plumber's girlfriend's babysitter's cousin's baseball coach's otolaryngologist's lawyer just last week... It's all in here. If you happened to catch the movie "Urban Legend," a lot of the story elements can be found in this book. I'd like to throw in one small note -- the urban legend called "Resurrection Mary" is one of the spookier ones, and I assumed it was an urban legend like all the rest of them, but that one actually is based on a true story. The History Channel has been running a series called "History's Mysteries," and they covered the true story it came from. Apart from that exception, I'm pretty sure all of these are authentic urban legends.Anyway, this book is a lot of fun. Worth checking out.

Summary: Perfecft book!
Review: This is one of my favorite books! I LOVE it! There aren't enough books like this! I hope to get ahold of the rest of the Factoid book set! This surely will be my fave though! I love Urban Legends and some of the scary stories I feel were made scarier by the creepy comic art. It was excellent! If you like this book, check out the movie Campfire Tales! It's what the movie Urban Legend should have been! Though Urban Legend was good, despite the cruddy sequel. Check it out!

Summary: EVERY URBAN LEGEND YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW
Review: This is the best out of the Big Book series. It has every urban legend I could think of and more. The stories are short but sweet. Even though a couple of them left me hanging, and I didnt get what the point was. But never the less it was very interesting.

Summary: Best of a Great Series
Review: This is the first book in Paradox Press's "Big Book of" series, and it's also the best (they are all worth reading, though). Written by the most knowledgable -- and funniest -- expert on urban folklore, Jan Harold Brunvand, "The Big Book of Urban Legends" is a treasure trove of too-good-to-be-true stores. The artwork, by a crowd of comic book artists, is great too. This is one of those books you'll keep re-reading, over and over. It's that good. Trust me.

Summary: Jammed-packed with SCARY Urban Ledgends!
Review: This riviting and exciting book will keep you on the edge of your seat! I am 41 years old and I still get nightmares from this! The movie " Urban Legends " is a great example of what stories are in this full-with excitement book. So if you like to be scared, this is the book for you! I am also a horror screeenwriter, and I mostly get my main idea for a movie from "The Big Book of Urban Legends." For example 'the dog in the microwave' 'the killer upstairs with baby and the babysitter downstairs' and 'the killer's bloody hook in the car door.' These stories and more are what your going to find in this GREAT book!!! Hope you enjoy!
