The Real-Life Urban Legend Story of the Body Under the Mattress

This is the story of one of the creepiest urban legends around. The basis of the story is this: a man and woman on their honeymoon go back to their hotel room to get down and dirty when they begin to smell something incredibly foul. The stench was coming from right below them, under the bed. What they would find when they lifted the covers would be beyond anything they could have imagined. While this is simply an urban legend, the truth may even be far more sinister.

The Dark History of Hotels

Hotels can be incredibly creepy on their own. According to an article on listverse.com, hotels are death hot spots. People commonly decide to take their own lives at hotels so that their families don’t have to clean up the mess, or maybe they want to do it in a nicer place than their home. Either way, it’s very common. In fact, the more hotels a city has, the higher the rate of suicide in that area. It’s strange but true.
