Long Horse
A rare thing in Henderson's bestiary: a creature that means no harm. A horse's skull on a neck tens of metres long, hanging down from somewhere above. In the mythology that accumulated around it online, Long Horse warns of danger — its appearance is a sign rather than a threat, and the only thing that hurts is the sound it makes, which it cannot help. Of the whole late-2010s internet menagerie it is the one that grew the friendliest fandom.
Lavender Town Syndrome
The legend says that in the Japanese release of Pokémon Red and Green in 1996 the music of the graveyard town carried high frequencies that gave children headaches and worse, and that the score was rewritten after a wave of complaints. Only one part of it checks out: the Japanese version does sound different from the international one — but the music was reworked for release abroad for ordinary technical reasons. No medical records, no cases, no names. The story appeared online a decade and a half after the game did.
