Urban Legends: Fear is Our Power

Horror
Sci/Fi (the implant of feared beings into people, transforming them into the legends)

It's an unwritten rule between Lucifer and God. Those who die in states of terror or sadness, or those who call a curse upon themselves, may come back from the dead to slay any who may summon them. But only if they are summoned. Sometimes, these spectres come back without being summoned, and haunt the place they were once found at. These spirits are known as urban legends.

Bloody Mary, the Headless Horseman, The Jersey Devil, the Mothman, and even the Elementalist...A spirit described as:

"It was about the size of a sheep, but it had a human face. Its eyes were just deep, dark holes. And the scent...unmistakable. It was the scent of rotting flesh."

The Elementalist never hurt anyone, but it was known to be very violent in its poltergeist form.

Bloody Mary. Her story was that she would come out of a mirror to kill, in a very violent way, anyone who spoke her name three times, with the lights turned out while standing in front of a mirror.

These and other urban legends have helped to shape the fears and cultures of the many different worlds.

But something is wrong. Many human beings are taking these legends...and making them real. Scientists have found ways to drain the fear from others, and give birth to the urban legends, putting them into their guinea pigs...And what happens is...Those who are afraid become those who cause fear.

Worse still, is that the poor experiments are put in circuses, where they are shown to the world.

for those who dont really know much about the wendigo i posted a little bit about it at the bottom and it changes a little through Native american mythology so i just chose what i thought was the coolest

The legend of the wendigo has a long history. It was part of the folklore of the various Native American tribes - especially the Algonquian people - and was to be found in what now makes up the northern US States and Canada.

Some people consider the wendigo to be simply a version of Bigfoot or Sasquatch. The creature's origin is more complex - it's a little like a cross between a werewolf, Bigfoot and a troll!

The wendigo is a man-beast that lives in alone the forest. It is far from benign, feeding whenever possible on human flesh - especially that of children.

The wendigo originates as a human being. However the person is then possessed by an evil spirit and transforms into the beast. The most common reason for becoming a wendigo is if one eats human flesh.

Some say that people bitten by a wendigo will begin to develop a craving for human flesh and eventually become possessed themselves. There is no cure.

The wendigo is also known as the "spirit of the lonely places". It is certainly a lone creature, The wendigo hides in the forests and tracks you silently, always just out of sight. It waits, biding its time until it can pounce.

Wendigos were said to be giants, many times larger than human beings Whenever a Wendigo ate another person, it would grow larger, in proportion to the meal it had just eaten, so that it could never be full.Wendigos were therefore simultaneously constantly gorging themselves and emaciated from starvation.
