Summary

We're embarking on the journey of a lifetime and tackling the urban legends Wikipedia page, which lists all of them (?) A-Z! But first: the numbers. We're kicking what could be years of meticulous coverage with The 27 Club, the 999 phone charging myth, the 1962 Halloween massacre, and the 2016 clown sightings!
