On the other handI think there is a difference between the typical 'urban legend' stories related to modern life, usually in an urban setting with a thoroughly non-mystical explanation, and stories emanating from a rural or country setting, in which folklore and magical or mystical explanations are more usual. For me the difference is that urban legends play upon our fear of corrupt or deviant society, whereas folk legends play upon more ancient fears of uncontrolled or misunderstood nature.
