10 Bizarre Hollywood Urban Legends

1. There's The Ghost Of A Boy In 'Three Men And A Baby'

And yet, nothing quite tops this pervasive, infamous and materially strange urban legend, which suggested that a film which saw Ted Danson, Steve Guttenberg and Tom Selleck haplessly trying to look after a baby was haunted by the ghost of a young boy who had lived in the apartment in which the above scene was filmed. The bizarre moment comes when viewers can spot what appears to be the shape of a young boy in the left hand corner of the screen, peering through the curtains. Long before the Internet, people began asserting that perhaps the boy had been murdered in the apartment years prior, and he was just hanging about to get his ghostly presence on screen. Of course, the actual explanation is a lot more tangible if also a lot more weird; the figure is, in fact, a cardboard cut-out of Ted Danson that was created for a sub-plot that was later removed from the final film, even if the standee is visible again later. Furthermore, these scenes were shot at a sound-stage, so the notion that anybody had lived there prior is absolutely ridiculous. Are there any other ridiculous urban legends you've heard?
