Ghost Stories Urban Legends

Ghost stories is one of the most fascinating stories out there that has the probability to be able to summon some urban legend wherever the story started. And it seems that any ghost is promisingly scary for an urban legend to be created it simply is under the flag terrifying situation that might occur. Urban legend is considered to be something that is created from society's curiosity over something that they cannot understand. So something or some story emerges as to satisfied the society need to explain the unexplainable. In many situation it often used as logical explanation for something that cannot be explained at that time. So in a way it created answer for any unanswered question.

Asia is the home of most of the ghost story that emerges in the world around us. Over time the society began to be able to understand the phenomena that happened around us. But even as we grew smarter over time the chances of any ghost stories to emerges is never disappeared from our society. Most of the stories that happened to appear in the Asia mostly appeared because of the will to always be with our love one and the respect to our ancestor in which symbolize the culture inheritance of the ancestor to the predecessor.

Urban legend which appear in the country side seems to connect directly to the culture of the people of the area but it is different then the one that appear in the urban area, in which the legend would try to separate itself with the urban society of the place where the legend emerge. It simply trying to explain the unexplainable event that happened in the society but because of the logical explanation cannot explained it people took something from outside of their society and use it as an explanation different from any countryside which uses their culture with some adjustment to create a legend in which it will become the logical explanation of the unexplainable event that occur.

Myths and Urban Legends

"Myth" as we heard that word we eventually think of the word "Greek" since the Greeks myth is one of the most popular myth ever known to the public and it also has been adapted to many other work in Hollywood. The Legend of the Olympians is certainly is an interesting story that were heard more than any other myth that I ever heard. Seems to be a legend full of interesting character contradictory against one another. Urban Legend posses the same kind of attitude towards society in which it present something seems to be true in a lot of way yet it do not have the necessary proof to be written as history than it is left as the Legend of the Unknown.

Urban legend towards our way of thought seems to be in a way of affecting it but not necessarily in a way of completely changing the course of our thought. We may thought that it could be something that seems to be impossible for a simple story to somehow effect the society in their behavior or the way any decision may be taken. 

Urban legend seems to have their own level of understanding different than myth which seems to move in a certain way different from any other course of history document since it only posses the story and not supporting fact to the history itself.

Urban Legends

The term of "Urban Legend" has not been used since ancient time and it were used as a term that distinguish the differentiation between folklore legend and urban legend. The Legend that is considered a true event by most people but posses no real evident to deliver the truth and simply walk along side the road of methodological comparison. Although the term stated that "the legend" was called Urban Legend it is not necessarily belong or originated from urban area. Because of that many expert prefer to called the legend as contemporary legend rather than "urban legend". Jan Harold Brunvand, professor of English at the University of Utah, introduced the term to the general public in a series of popular books published beginning in 1981. Brunvand has since published a series of similar books, and is credited as the first to use the term vector (inspired by the concept of biological vectors) to describe a person or entity passing on an urban legend.

Urban legend doesn't seem to posses the same characteristic of other legend and any historical event stories because it tend to change in order to suit the people of the place where it spread. Adjusting the story itself based on the level of knowledge of the people at the time it spread is also an occurring event to the urban legends. One example was the story of a woman killed by a spider nesting in her elaborate hairdo. More recent legends tend to reflect modern circumstances, like the story of people ambushed, anesthetized, and waking up minus one kidney, which was surgically removed for transplantation a story which folklorists refer to as "The Kidney Heist"
