Two races, or tribes, were familiar with each other's existence a long time ago but they have gone ages without contact with each other, and now each believes the other to be creatures of legend, that either never existed or died out long ago. Until they meet each other. And they both react exactly the same way: by saying something along the lines of "They do exist!" in a tone of awe. At the same time. (Or at least one directly after the other.) Compare Mutually Fictional, where the two sides really did originate as (or still are) only stories to each other. Also compare Fantastic Fantasy Is Mundane, where creatures in another world make up stories about a world like ours. |

The dwarven grags in Thud! (who are mostly extremist deep-downers, or "those who do not get out in the fresh air enough") are said to believe humans to be a kind of bad dream. This puts them at odds with the rest of the dwarfs, who are quite willing to deal with humans, to the point that a brief civil war erupts during the events of Raising Steam. | |

Dinosaur Train: At the start of "Paulie Pliosaurus", Buddy says he used to think there was nothing under the ocean but water. Later, Paulie Pliosaurus says he thought there was nothing above the ocean except the sky. "Back in Time" begins with Tiny thinking that there was nothing before the Triassic. The Conductor tells her and Buddy that there were billions of years before dinosaurs. They visit the Permian and meet a Dimetrodon, who thought the Mesozoic was just a myth. |

Subverted in Louise Searl's short story The Dragon's Claw from The Dream Eaters And Other Stories. Four teenagers are transported to a world of mythical creatures, which can no longer exist in our world because we don't believe in them any more. The kids are told that if the dragons and other creatures stopped believing in them, they wouldn't be able to exist in the mythical world either. | |

In Farmer Giles of Ham, younger dragons seem to think that the Knights are just a myth. The older ones know better, although they admit that they are few and far, and not a danger anymore. Which is true. The King and his Knights are pretty useless. The only person who can effectively deal with the Dragon is a fat, red-headed farmer who doesn't like trespassers—even if they are scaly and breathe fire. | |

The Outer Limits (1995): This is played with in "Promised Land". Dlavan has always told his daughter Krenn and his grandsons Ma'al and T'sha that all the humans on Earth are dead. However, it turns out that Dlavan knew from his great-grandparents that some of them were still alive in a concentration camp overseen by androids in spite of the fact that most of their people, the Tsal-Khan, left Earth 100 years earlier. | |

A humorous and "realistic" example occurs in Roseanne. Dan comes to pick D.J. up from school after he gets in trouble...and it turns out that, since Roseanne is usually the one who handles all of the kids' problems, the entire faculty just thought Dan was dead. D.J. doesn't help by pretending that he doesn't know who Dan is. ("How do you know my name?") | |

Before meeting each other, the Power Rangers (In Space) and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ("Next Mutation" version) each thought the other was an urban legend. Which, as Linkara's History of Power Rangers pointed out, is somewhat headscratching, as the Rangers have been well-known public figures for quite some time, to the point that they have been on TV, and there are towns with Monster Attack Preparedness Drills. | |

This puts them at odds with the rest of the dwarfs, who are quite willing to deal with humans, to the point that a brief civil war erupts during the events of Raising Steam. The speech Sir Terry wrote for Lord Vetinari (Stephen Briggs) for the twinning ceremony between Wincanton and Ankh-Morpork had the Patrician explain that a lot of effort had gone into convincing Ankh-Morporkians that there really was a place called Wincanton and it wasn't just made up. |

The Little Mermaid: In one comic Ariel accidentally comes across a city where moray (eel-people) live. Moray were deemed fictional by merpeople. In turn, moray thought merpeople were a myth. Moray are afraid of merpeople. The moray princess decides to keep Ariel as a pet, then ransoms her when she learns that Ariel and her sister Aquata are princesses. Moray are depicted as the Evil Counterpart to merpeople. | |

The Mechanimals in The Day the World Broke only knew about humans within myths and legends, and despite knowing their language, were never aware that anything existed outside their home territory, let alone humans. The only human who ever lived with them was Ozzie Jr., circa 65 million years prior. Having accidentally caused all the prehistoric life forms to be sucked into the World Machine's core during the Great Tune Up, he fled there and fed them food with mechanical parts mixed in, that caused them to evolve into how they are now, up until he died in the magma cavern. By the time the newer breed of Mechanimals dug up his body, nobody but Diode suspected it was really a human. And then you come along when the entire world machinery above goes on the fritz. | |

Xanth has humans (although if they didn't get fresh blood from Mundania they'd eventually change into magical creatures), but all of their animals are magical. As such, they think of a horse as a wingless pegasus,note Centaurs accept that horses did exist as a legitimate creature in Xanth at one point, due to their culture remembering their origin: several men, several mares, and a Love Spring... a lion as something with a griffin's body and a chimera's head, etc. | |

As they talk, they pass an intelligent carnosaur, who snorts "What?! More of you costumed frauds? How far will the papers go to spread their bogus stories of a 'surface civilisation'?" | |

Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun: Suzuki Iruma had a terrible life and terrible parents who sold him to a demon, but the demon adopts him and gives him a much better life than when he was on the human world. It’s stated up front that demons eat humans (which is why Iruma needs to keep his species secret at all cost,) and the school anthem is a song about how humans are just food for demons- but then, it's revealed that the young demons had never eaten a human, never even saw a human and suspect they are a myth. On the other hand, several high-ranking adult demons are fully aware of their existence and may be involved with keeping them a secret. | |

Pops up at the end of the sleepover episode of The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius. The climax of the episode features a series of increasingly nonsensical Catapult Nightmares involving the various characters and a flying vampiric pizza. The final nightmare turns out to belong to an actual vampire pizza, sleeping in his pizza box; when he explains his terrible dream to his wife, she consoles him that children don't exist, and everyone knows that. | |

Shown from the opposite perspective in the Nomes Trilogy. Having established from the first book that the Store nomes have a religion based around Arnold Bros. (est. 1905), who created the Store for them to live in, the third book has them make contact with the grandson of one of the Arnold brothers. Who is amazed, but immediately asks if they're like the little people his grandfather used to tell him about, who lived in the walls of the old department store. Maskin later tells Gurder the priest "You know how you believed in Arnold Bros. (est. 1905)? Well, he believed in you too! How about that?" (The Store nomes know that humans exist, they just have a hard time getting their heads round the idea that Arnold Bros. (est. 1905) was one.) | |

The Star Trek: The Original Series episode "The City on the Edge of Forever" has 1930s philanthropist Edith Keeler understandably skeptical of Leonard McCoy's claims to be a time-traveling doctor from a star ship in the 23rd century. Bones, still in recovery from overdosing on a psychoactive drug, likewise dismisses her as some kind of hallucination he must be having. | |

In one of the Garrett, P.I. novels, the protagonist muses that certain creatures of legend don't exist in his Fantasy Kitchen Sink world, being allegorical fictions rather than genuine beings. These include fire-breathing dragons, gryphons, and ostriches. | |

In Prince Caspian, thanks to Narnia Time elapsing, the Pevensies themselves are considered rather like King Arthur: rulers from the legendary past golden age, possibly mythical. | |

An early portion of The Martian Chronicles has a Martian parent talking to a child, assuring it that there can't be any life on Earth, because of the excessive amounts of oxygen. | |

Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew!: In the Bronze Age, it was revealed that DC's Golden Age Funny Animal comics characters all live on Earth-C (for "cartoon"). The most famous inhabitants are Captain Carrot and his Amazing Zoo Crew. There, humans are considered mythical monsters. A wolf who is cursed to transform into a human is called a Wuzwolf. | |

The premise of Smallfoot is that yetis don't believe in humans, considering them a mythical monster they call "smallfoot". Naturally, Hilarity ensues when the one yeti who does believe actually catches a glimpse of a human on the mountain and heads down to the lowlands to prove they exist. Justified; the eldest of the village, the Stonekeeper, knows that there were hostile encounters between humans and yeti in the past, so he has shaped their entire culture to keep them hidden from humanity due to his belief that Humans Are the Real Monsters. | |

The Chronicles of Narnia: In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Tumnus the faun reacts this way to Lucy the first time he meets her, and owns a book called Is Man a Myth? A rather justified example, since the few humans in Narnia at its creation had been crossbred into oblivion with the other races within the first few generations, a thousand years before his time. In Prince Caspian, thanks to Narnia Time elapsing, the Pevensies themselves are considered rather like King Arthur: rulers from the legendary past golden age, possibly mythical. Narnia is on a Flat World. In The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Caspian is shocked to learn that the Pevensies come from a round planet (with "parts where people walk about upside-down") and never bothered to tell him before. |

Parodied in "Moon Problems" from Summer Camp Island. A talking ice cream sandwich sees a mermaid and says "Mermaids are real?". One of the mermaids looks equally astonished and says "Woah, ice cream sandwiches are real!". | |

In the first episode of The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin, Gimmick crashes his airship into the tree of Leota the Woodsprite. When she introduces herself, Gimmick says there's no such things as "woodsprites", she quips back that there's no such thing as big bags of air stuck in her tree, yet there it, big as life. | |

In one episode of The Lion Guard Bunga believes that Besthe's new okapi friend is imaginary because he sounds like a Mix And Match Creature. When he turns out to be a Not-So-Imaginary Friend and meets Bunga, the okapi says he didn't believe honey badgers really existed, because their smell and looks sounded outlandish. | |

The Monster Bed: When her son panics about the possibility of humans crawling under his bed, Dennis' mother tells him that humans are fictional creatures. At the end, the narrator tells the reader to avoid the Withering Wood, or they might meet Dennis' mother, who would tell them they don't exist. | |
