Cropsey

The legend of Cropsey is essentially an unknown figure that would kidnap children and take them to an abandoned tunnel system under an old hospital to murder them. Various real and fake disappearances were attributed to Cropsey. Then in 1987, a man in the area named Andre Rand was found to be connected to crimes like those that Cropsey had supposedly committed. Rand was working as a janitor at a state school for kids with intellectual disabilities which was an abusive and unsafe environment for students. He was homeless at the time and living near an old hospital and an abandoned school.

Rand had a history of crimes against children including sexual assault as well as an incident where he kidnapped a bus of children. Rand was originally arrested for the disappearance of a 12-year-old student Jenifer Schweiger. Her body was later found on the school grounds where he was living. It is thought that Rand may be connected to even more cases of missing children from that time period. He was later found guilty of one of these cases and will not be eligible for parole until 2037.

"Checking, checking, 1, 2, 3..."

"Is this thing on?!"

The camera tuned in to a girl wearing pink, who then furrowed her brows with a determined grin. The livestream already had thirteen thousand viewers, even though it just started, and comments began flooding in.

"Hey, hey, hey! What's up, fuckers?! It's your girl, Miu here! Currently with Rantaro, Kaede, Ryoma, Kirumi, Angie, Tenko, Korekiyo, Kokichi, Gonta, Kaito, Tsumugi, Kiibo, Shuichi, Maki, and Himiko, who I'm sure you all recognize from the channel, at the convention we mentioned we'd be going to!!"

"Thank you, Iruma. But yes, we are getting rather bored here, and desire interaction. We were hoping a few of you would be able to tune in and talk to us."

"Yes, yes! Give us a good laugh! We are soooooooo bored~! I may even be willing to put in a good word to Atua for you if you do~."

"Gonta not bored! Gonta brought lots of bug friends! See?"

The boy, presumably called "Gonta", holds out two handfuls of different kinds of insects. That causes another boy to dart to the other end of the group, hiding behind a masked man.

"S-Stay over there... please."

He must not like bugs, huh? But then

"U-Um, guys? The comments...?"

She directs their attention to the comments, where yours comes up.

What does your comment say?

did i just write "charles kincaid chugged a gallon of milk after the first mackie test, in the tradition of indy 500 winners"?

yes, yes i did

#it's at least like an urban legend or something #it's a version of the mackie test that gets around #it may not be true but it's fun #battletech #also jeez this man's life kinda sucked

Fun fact: after the conquest of England in 1066, William The Bastard led a Norman invasion force into Japan. This historic event is captured in the Kobe Tapestry, parts of which are recreated around the city.

The absolutely bizarre ice cream truck situation in my neighborhood continues. I almost posted the other day about how, in the middle of a wicked spring storm when it's barely 40 out with winds around 30mph (and gusts up to twice that) there was the first ice cream truck of the season out. No one is popping out for a cold treat.

Now it's currently 8am, and there's another one. I mean the weather is decent but kids are in school and it's a weird time to be out man.

(I tried to find my other posts about this to add onto it ranging from a truck playing techno metal and another one playing knock off ice cream music but couldn't find them needless to say it's a theme in my neighborhood)

I also have to stress these are decrepit 1990s minivans with stickers, slapped on the side. They just reach over and slide open the side door to hand out ice-cream.

#It's like every urban legend come true #Because nothing screams I'm selling drugs and or will kidnap your kids l #Like what we get here #I've seen legit normal sane looking ice-cream trucks in other neighborhoods too #So #This is just an us thing

batman: urban legends #3

it is interesting to see how jason and bruce’s methods clash. beacause jason isn’t opposed to research or preparation, he’s worked with batman before and he basically upended the gotham crime bosses’ game in utrh through sneaking around

but working with bruce makes him “reckless” because he knows he’s already on thin ice with him, so he might as well set bruce off on purpose now than on accident later

#batman urban legends #jason todd #bruce wayne #at least that’s what i’m taking from it #i know ppl have said rhato completely changed the way writers characterize him #so. that could be true too #ggw liveblog

The Hinterkaifeck Murders

In 1922 in a rural town of Hinterkaifeck, Bavaria, Germany, a family of five was brutally murdered after killers his in their home for weeks, learning their movements and picking the best moment to kill. 

The story begins six months prior, when the maid quit because she believed the family’s house was haunted, frequently hearing footsteps coming from the attic. When she quit and a new maid was brought in, the new maid reportedly saw footprints leading from the woods to the house as well as a strange newspaper that appeared at random. Someone had also tried to break into the tool shed, but no one paid attention. 

On March 6th, 1922, each family member, was lured into the barn where they were killed one by one with a mattock. The maid and the two year old child’s body were found in their bedrooms of the house. The bodies were discovered a week later, and the crime was never solved. During the weekend of the murders the neighbours reported that someone fed the cows and let the dog out, and smoke was seen rising from the chimney.

Black Christmas is truly my favorite slasher and favorite Christmas-horror (thought Anna and the Apocalypse is also really great), but 1) literally my nightmare 2) it always kind of weirds me out that this predates both the Weepy Voice Killer’s 911 calls and the EARONS/Golden State Killer’s calls and YET

#it’s based on an amalgamation between a series of murders in Montreal around Christmas #and the classic ‘the call is coming from inside the house’ urban legend #but the audio calls are very evocative of those two #true crime #literally my nightmare but also I may or may not be using that trope in a fic eep

This will turn out either really good or really bad

#before anyone asks this is an upcoming short story in Batman: Urban Legends 20 #its done by Nadia whom I'm on the fence when it comes to her writing #she doesn't write Talia as evil which is the bare minimum but I still appreciate it #but.....she write Talia as some badass cold girlboss which I don't like and isn't really true Talia #and I personally don't like how she reconted Talia's childhood into being a copy of Damian's childhood #I did the story she wrote with teenage Talia tho but not so much kid Talia and adult Talia #since its just a short story my predication is that it will be a boring story about the difference between how they raise Damian #and it will probably (I hope not) will end up with Damian or the narrative saying that Damian is better off with Bruce than Talia #although if it was about me I would rather its just a cute wholesome story about Bruce and Talia saving Damian or something #or better yet a modern retelling of when she got pregnant with Damian and faked a miscarriage #that will do wonder to fix her image that was destroyed by Morrison #but it will probably just be my first prediction
