What was the first urban legend you ever heard?

What was the first urban legend that somebody told you or you read in a book or saw in a movie?

My first one I think is probably a first for a lot of people because it's one of the oldest and most well repeated, The Hook. The next 2 I heard about were Bloody Mary and the Aren't You Glad you didn't Turn on the Lights?, but those two I didn't get because the book I read them in was just the kids pulling a prank at a sleepover so I didn't get what was supposed to be so scary about them because there wasn't any corpse or ghost or whatever.

The Bloody Mary (still have never tried that to this day)
And one about the Man with the Golden Arm. ??? Think that was the one.

Woman usually, the Man with the Golden Arm is a Frank Sinatra movie. Though when I was 10 I heard its cousin story, the little boy and the liver.

I never heard of that movie before...

I just remembered this one called La Llorona... Mexican urban legend, scared the shit out of me when I was younger.

I have no idea....Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot perhaps.

Bloody Mary and Candyman....fun times

Candyman, I remember the director who made the Pinhead movies said his dentist has kids and when they don't go to sleep she'll go to the mirror and go 'Candyman' and on the first one they run to bed!

The old black widows in the beehive hair do story.

I think it was the one about the fat old man in a red suit breaking into people's houses in the dead of night ever Dec. 25 armed with a list of naughty children.
