7 of the Most Scary Urban Legends in the World to Keep You Up at Night

1. The Licked Hand – (unknown)

There are different versions of this one, but it’s essentially the same story: either an old lady or a girl that can’t stay home alone, so stays with her caring dog. She wakes up all of a sudden hearing a dripping sound, and goes to the bathroom to close the shower tap, although the dripping doesn’t come from there. She goes back to sleep with her dog licking her hand. This situation keeps happening, until she decides to turn the light on and find out what’s causing the dripping sound… and that’s when she discovers her dog dead with his blood dripping and a sign written on the walls “Humans can lick, too”.
