Rudolph Fentz
The urban legend about Rudolph Fentz is pretty miraculous. In the 1950s, a Victorian-looking man appeared in the middle of Times Square out of nowhere. He was completely startled, and when approached, it was revealed that he had 19th-century money in his pockets and a document with the date 1876...
A Very Curious Case
Rudolph Fentz Jr. claims his father disappeared one day in 1876 and never returned. How is that possible? Many people in that time actually believed him. But it turns out, the whole tale was a short story crafted by Jack Finney, who also wrote "Invasion of the Bodysnatchers."
