Creatures, places and events attributed to Urban Legends, which are folklore based around the modern era (from 1900s onwards), as such they are often based upon much older legends but adapted to fit into the ever-changing nature of humanity and time; thus common folklore themes such as ruined castles inhabited by ghoulish monsters or remote forests full of pixies are replaced with abandoned buildings or factories inhabited by man-made horrors such as mutants and other-worldly visitors (such as aliens).

Urban legends can also place traditional folkloric monsters such as demons or ghosts and place them into the modern world, such as having a ghost haunt a bathroom or a demon take the form of a modern vehicle such as a car or train, some even go further and merge these magical creatures with the internet and smart-phones.
