Eskişehir (2000s urban legend)

Eskişehir's Bathhouse of the Backward Feet

Folklore — not a documented case

According to a tale that emerged in the 2000s, a person entered a bathhouse late at night and fled upon noticing that the staff's feet were "turned backward." The tale spread by word of mouth and found a place in the popular culture of the period — enough to inspire a television sketch; it is not a confirmed event.

This tale, which emerged in the early 2000s centered on Eskişehir, spread across Turkey within a short time.

The stories in this section are folk tales and legends; they are not verified, real events and should not be confused with the rest of the archive.
