The legend of lover's lane is a story about teenagers parking in a secluded area to be alone and intimate. The boyfriend hears a strange noise and gets out of the car to investigate. The girlfriend becomes concerned when her boyfriend doesn't return. Then she hears the sound of something scraping the roof of the car. She steps out to investigate discovering her boyfriend hanging upside down from a tree dead and bloody. The scraping sound was of his nails on the roof because he was hanging directly above the roof. She locks herself in the car hearing her boyfriends nails scraping the roof throughout the night. When morning comes she's found in the car traumatized. There are different versions to this story but I think the point is to deter teenagers from having premarital sex.

Answer:

Boy Who Cried Wolf

Explanation:

One folktale I was told when I was younger was the boy who cried wolf. Long story short, a farm boy was sent to the woods to make sure no wolf would go on the farm and eat the sheep. If he did, then he would cry "WOLF" out loud, and all of the men would come and scare away or kill the wolves. The boy wanted to pull some tricks and called wolf when there wasn't. After a few times doing that, the men got fed up, and stopped going to the boy when he cried wolf. But when there was a wolf, and when he yelled for help, no one came. Killing the boy. This was the story that was told to me. The moral of the story was when someone constantly lies, you loose trust in others
