Folklore, in contrast to the official historiography, is free from ideological mission, and develops according to its own regularities, selectively memorizing historical events of various meaning and scale. Lifestyle and psychology of our ancestors, their fantasies, fears and troubles are studied on the material of the legends originating from Saint-Petersburg. The mechanism of formation of myths and mass consciousness are highlighted.
