My great-grandmother who was from Spain used to tell this story to keep my mother from wandering far from home as a child. She said that a caped man would appear on the corner and would take you away if you went far from home. I'm not sure of the spelling but I think it sounds like "Prové la Manta". Thanks!!

i heard that if you dont dream this means that you will eventually go insane because the brain has no way to release the things that it deals with during the day. Anyone know if this is a proven fact or just myth?

I was sitting in my living room, and well.....i wanted to know what time it was. I looked up at the clock, which was working just fine. After about 5 seconds the clock stopped (the batteries went dead). Is there some myth about seeing a clock stop? My friend told me i should have died shortly after. Anyone know?

Ex: My dad says he's "snakebit" and has always had back luck. He'll go to his grave saying that there was a curse on him, that's why he never succeeded in anything.
