What happens when myth meets meme-and people believe it?
In this chilling episode of The Freakin' Shack, we enter into the shadowy world of Urban legends born and bred on the internet. From the eerie origins of Creepypasta to infamous figures like The Slender Man and The Rake, we explore how digital storytelling can blur into real-life horror.
We also unravel the darker side of initiation rituals, social media dares and viral challenges and trends that have turned fiction into frightening reality. And as always, we bring you our story of the week - this time, the mysterious story of The Beast of Bodmin.. lurking on the moors.
Monsters maybe imaginary, but belief? That's the real danger!
