Trama
True or false?- Do lemmings really commit mass suicide? Does Coca-Cola own Santa Claus? Was Walt Disney's head cryogenically frozen? Is there a beast roaming Bodmin Moor? Has anyone given a lift to a phantom hitchhiker? From Walt Disney's frozen head to the kidnap of JFK's brain, Albert Jack gathers together all the strangest, sickest, funniest and most unforgettable urban legends and recounts them with his usual deadpan humour.
