It’s really funny if you ask me. I’m 17, and I quite enjoy horror. I can watch virtually any movie alone in the dark (I say virtually because, obviously, I haven’t seen them all). I’ve always been one to place science and logic ahead of everything else.

But there’s something about this one. I often go to the bathroom at night and turn on the light as fast as I can. I think mirrors are uniformly creepy because they show us what we can’t see for ourselves, such as our face and whatever’s behind us. In the dark, we see only hints of these, a little shape here, a small reflection there.

But what makes this one so effective? People from young children to seniors and everywhere in between are frightened by it.

Logically, I don’t believe it. Personally, I lean towards lack of belief, but not full certainty. How could the story get out if those who discovered it lived to tell it?

All that said, I think I’ll stay on the safe side. In other words, there’s no way in bloody hell that you can get me to try it.

When i was thirteen me and my friend decided it would be funny to summon Bloody mary. So one night i went and stayed at her house so we grabbed a couple candles and went to the bathroom. We lit them and chanted her name 10 times then all of a sudden the candles went out which i thought was awkward becaus there wasn’t a single breeze. A few minutes later I felt something brush agaisnt me and i just thought it was my friend trying to scare me so i grabbed her and she felt wet but it was warm then all of a sudden i couldn’t feel her anymore. So I quickly turned on the lights and couldnt see my friend anywhere but then i looked in a corner. She was sitting there rocking back and forth her eyes were wide open and she was covered in blood. I didnt know what to do i just sat there and she looked at me and started screaming and screaming and i didnt know what was wrong with her. Her brother started pounding on the door till finally it opened. It was the worse thing ever. The look on her face is like stuck in my head. I remember asking the doctor what had caused her bleeding and he said he had found fingernails stuck in her skin. Since then i have been doing research and I had found an article on bloody mary in the same area as me which is Edmonton Alberta but the rest of i had bee cut out.

HEY! Just wanted to let ya know that myself and two of my best friends live off of legends and spooky tales. We enjoy the ones that are based off of something true. Every year on Halloween we get together, whether it be to do a haunted trail or watch scary movies or the “Real Scary Stories” we’ve taped, we watch on halloween. We’re 23 and 22 now, gradutated college and have careers, but on halloween everything is put aside and its us with our movies and we search the net for REAL SCARY STORIES, that has happend….Thanks to this site…we’ll have something to talk about!

sweet blog! definetly heard many stories of Bloody Mary. Most commun one that i’ve heard is the one where Mary went crazy, got in a car accident and because that glass cut up her face so badly she haunts mirrors because she doesn’t want to leave, but the glass got her stuck in the mirror but yea, so many different versions, all i was building up to was, good stuff, i liked it. and honestly unless you’ve tried the ritual of Bloody Mary, you can’t even begin to emagin how freakin scary it is. Good stuff though ~Saber~

When I was in 7th grade, we were talking about this and one of our classmates said she wasn’t real, and that he would prove it. We were all too scared to try and we told him not to do it but we couln’t convince him. He didn’t come to school the next day or any day for that matter and none of us ever found out what happened to him although some say he transferred, when we asked the teacher she said she didn’t know. He just vanished. Another girl tried it that same year in a public bathroom though not at the stroke of midninght, it was daylight out and she was wearing fake nails and she said every one of them chipped off and she got too scared and ran out of te bathroom and kept on praying to god if she even saw a mirror, she said she’d scream and run.

Yeah I’ve heard of y Mary but i’ve heard alot of ideas from different people. I’ve heard you have to chant her name 3, 13, or 5 times. I”ve also heard that she will suck you into the mirror you are chanting her name from or she will claw your face off. It’s pretty creepy. I’ve tried it but with the lights on. I yelled at her once for still roaming the Earth and I asked her to go back to Hell where she came from. I also heard if you say Hell Mary you’ll see saitin’s face. Be careful…

i tried this on friday night with a couple of friends and they were in my sisters room when i was on the computer and i got off and went and made some food and when i was looking into the black microwave door and i said to myself in my mind “i dont believe that **** its a bunch of b.s. ” and all of a sudden i kept hearing noises from the dnning room and living room and the hall way to my arents room and i looked to see what was making the noises and i looked back to the microwave and i saw a very black and evil face…so i ran into my sisters room and ithey asked me what happend and i would not talk about it! then after i had calmed down a little bit and i went back to the dinning room where the computer is and i was at the back door and i couldnt look in it cause i would see her.and so i hurried up to go through the kitchen and when i opened the door i felt a very evil presence right in front of me. i screamed shut the door and ran back into my sisters room shut the door and sat down right there and started crying hysterically.and i usualy dont cry ever.and thats when they started to believe me that bloody mary was and is real and true and its been 4 days since then and i still feelthat presence around me most of the time so for those who dont believe and want to try it..be careful what you summon it could be something really bad
