Scary Urban Legends by Tom Baker
Do you know what an urban legend is? They are those stories that make the rounds at high school hangouts and college dorms, camping trips and late night sleepovers, offices and water coolers as frightening tales too good to be true, and too scary to be fiction. These stories include the short and shivery legend, The Vanishing Hitchhiker; the macabre comedy, The Hook; and the scream-till-you-drop terror tale, Bloody Mary. Experience the horror of lurking killers, lonely ghosts, and attacks from insects that seem to come from the pit of some forgotten nightmare. And who knows? It all might be true
The British actor Tom Baker, best known as the fourth incarnation of The Doctor, was born in 1934 in Liverpool, England. At age 15, Baker left school to become a monk with the Brothers of Ploermel on the island of Jersey. Six years later, he abandoned the monastic life and performed his National Service in the Royal Army Medical Corps, where he became interested in acting. He attended Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama in Kent, England, on scholarship. Baker acted in repertory theaters around Britain until the late 1960s when he joined up with the National Theatre. Baker was working as a laborer at a building site when he landed the role of the main character in the popular, long-running British television series Doctor Who (1963), which brought him international fame and popularity.
