All over the world there are extraordinary stories—stories that once upon a time were believed to be true but are today limited to the sphere of ancient myths and legends.

Most ancient myths appear to the scientific world to be fictitious products of vivid imaginations. Their goals was purely to explain phenomena beyond their comprehension.

The terms myth, folklorelegend, and fairy tale are often used interchangeably as fanciful tales.

Folklore is the age-old traditions, music, stories and superstitions that help define human culture. Where lies the truth behind legends such as the Bermuda Triangle, zombies, werewolves, witches, vampires, and Robin Hood?

Myths have fed the imagination for thousands of years. The vast majority of these tales are just stories people have handed down through the ages. But a few have roots in real geological events of the past, providing warning of potential dangers and speaking to the awe we hold for the might of the planet.

Folklore makes the hairs on the back of one’s neck stand up. It is between the human and the wild, beauty and the beast, the known and the unknown.

Legends are often accepted as true, even when the stories are barely on the side of believable.

Urban legends warn us about the dangers of modern life; about trusting strangers and institutions, and being too certain about our places in society.  What we take from these tales depends in part on our pre-existing beliefs about the world we live in.
