    The story that someone died of fright when Disneyland's Haunted Mansion was first opened (forcing the ride to be reworked) can be traced back to a tradition about Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus having to be rewritten after multiple Globe audience members were shocked to death by the pie scene.

    		Tough question to answer - the first Urban Legend regarding death is probably not recorded.
