Sure. There is a story about an old, abandoned asylum. People who dared to enter at night reported hearing strange screams and seeing shadowy figures. One night, a group of teenagers went in.

Well, some of these stories might involve students getting scammed while taking out student loans. For example, there could be cases where the loan providers were not legitimate and the students were left with huge debts and no real education to show for it. Or perhaps a student got sick or had a family emergency during their studies and couldn't continue, but still had to pay back the full loan amount without any leniency from the lender. Another situation could be that the paperwork for the loan was so confusing that students unknowingly signed up for additional fees and charges that made their debt much worse.
