Game: Grand Theft Auto IV

The Secret: The Ratman stalks the sewers of Liberty City!

Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto series is well-known for being packed with easter eggs and secrets, so it's no wonder that players began coming up with their own urban legends about the games.

One of the most famous supposed 'secrets' from the series is the mythical Ratman. Ratman himself is supposedly a very tall creature that's, well, half-man, half-rat and who lives deep in the darkest parts of the city sewers.

According to the rumours, he would sprint towards players at high speeds and attack them, even when unprovoked. It was the photo above that first convinced many people of Ratman's existence, leading to believers spending hours searching the underground areas of Liberty City. Despite many still believing he exists even today, no real evidence has ever been presented.
