My area has a supposed undead creature called Stovepipe. He has a stovepipe stuck in his head and attacks people by train tracks. Apparently he died in a terrible accident and couldn't move on because he was so mad about his death. High schoolers love going looking for him lol. I don't believe he exists, but it's an interesting thing.
