The groundbreaking book that launched America's urban legend obsession!

Folklore scholar Jan Harold Brunvand assembles the best-known urban legends -- including "The Hook," "The Spider in the Hairdo," and "The Baby-Sitter and the Man Upstairs" -- and provides an enlightening and entertaining analysis of their variants and evolution. The Vanishing Hitchhiker was Professor Brunvand's first popular book on urban legends, and it remains a classic. The culmination of twenty years of collection and research, this book is a must-have for urban legend lovers.
