Teressa fidalgo and Devil's pool
There are many scary messages roaming on the internet after the name Teresa Fidalgo. It became famous in the year 2014. A message was shared between the tennagers during that period. That message was "I am Teresa Fidalgo and if you don’t post this on 20 other photos, I will sleep with you forever," the quote spammed at the bottom of thousands of Instagram pictures this week somewhat ambiguously warns.

The Wishing Tree
“The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window.” Jessica held the flashlight up beneath her chin for added effect. “My older sister explained that the cottage is hidden in the woods and is challenging to find only revealing itself during a summer’s full moon, when a camper must seek it to reach the wishing tree.” She was putting on a voice to go with her story. “Each year a camper must be chosen to follow the sign of the owl, which will lead you to the cottage in the woods. You must enter the house alone at night and touch the wishing tree’s surface at the heart of the cottage, then the camper’s wish will be granted.” Jessica had the groups full attention as she spoke. The ambient silence as we listened was putting me more on edge, eyes that flickered in the artificial light, taking on a more primal appearance. The silence made the room feel foreign as the smell of mildew and old sweat traced through the air.

The Widows Candle
"The Cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window." The fire crackled as we sat in the front yard, the crickets tuning up and the little stream lapping at the banks of the small channel that bore it. The snow melt had been thick that year, and the small cold snap we had experienced the first week of June hadn't hurt it any. I had been living with Grandpa for nearly a year now, ten months to be exact, and he had been making these bonfires a near-constant Friday even since the snow melted in spring. They suited me just fine. I had been cleaning up the spring limb falls since April, and the bonfires made a perfect excuse to get rid of them.

Janet / Jane
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. "It comes to this," Jane said blowing out the match. She turned around and looked at the teenage girl, Janet, sitting silently at the table. "It's scary, I know. It wasn't always like this. I didn't think it would be like this. It was like this for my grandmother. It wasn't like this for my mother or for me. These are horrific times we live in." She lowered the hood of her sweatshirt and sat at the table across from the teenage girl. The teenage girl had been crying, she had been crying for the last several days anytime they talked.

The candy lady
This is one of the most famous urban legends in Texas. Many people in Texas say that this incident took place in real life. Because of the incidents during the late 19th century and the start of the 20th century, this legend was created. The candy lady mentioned here is Clara Crane. Clara Crane was born in 1891 in Texas, then she was forcefully married to an old man in her teenage years.

Cabin by the Lake - A Siren's Song
"The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window," said Donovan. Scanning the faces of his long-time friends, he contemplated if he should relay the events that happened at the very same campsite they currently occupied. Donovan hesitated only a moment before eventually taking up the story again. After all, he had made a promise. To do otherwise would be a mistake he was not prepared to make.

The black eyed children
It is one of the most famous urban legends on the internet. There would be numerous posts on Reddit about these black-eyed children. They are mostly kids within the age range of 6 and 16. Not like normal children, whose skins would be so white. The activities they do and the languages they speak would be totally different. And their eyes would be fully black. These are some things told about their appearance in stories.

The Cabin in the Woods
“The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window.” As legend has it, Old Lady Peterson was a dark witch who was paid by others to cast spells on people that they didn’t like. She grew bitter and moved into the cabin in the woods after a spell backfired, killing her husband instead.

Curiosity killed the dog
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. There had been tales about that cabin, meant to scare little kids from playing in it I suppose. One story was about a group of kids who entered the cabin on a dare one night and were never seen again. Another story of a wild beast that only comes out once in a hundred years to feed and then goes back into hibernation. One kid even said that his grandpa saw the monster one day while hunting close to the cabin and barely made it out with his life. But my family has been coming out here every summer since I was two, and it has always been abandoned.
