King Midas
We’ve all heard of the Midas touch. Scholars believe that King Midas, who was cursed with turning anything he touched to gold, was a real person, but there is no evidence to show that he had any mythological abilities. The story is part of Greek mythology.

Jack the Ripper
The legend of Jack the Ripper involves a serial killer who was supposedly active in 1888 London, especially in impoverished areas. The thing is, he was never actually identified, so it’s difficult to know whether all of the murders were connected to one person or not. These murders remain unsolved, so the story of Jack the Ripper is a combination of folklore, research, and pseudo-history.
