Legend & Lore  |  Bloody Mary 

Bloody Mary is a legend of a ghost, phantom, or spirit conjured to reveal the future. The apparition may be benevolent or malevolent, depending on historic variations of the legend.

Bloody Mary allegedly appears to individuals or groups who ritualistically invoke her name in an act of catoptromancy. This is done by repeatedly chanting her name into a mirror placed in a dimly lit or candle-lit room. The name must be uttered 13 times (or some other specified number of times). The Bloody Mary apparition allegedly appears as a corpse, witch, or ghost that can either be friendly, evil, or a demonic spirit, and is sometimes seen covered in blood (hence the name).

The lore surrounding the ritual states that participants may endure the apparition screaming at them, cursing them, strangling them, stealing their soul, drinking their blood, or scratching their eyes out. 

Some variations of the ritual call Bloody Mary by a different name - "Hell Mary" and "Mary Worth" are popular examples.

There is much debate as to who 'Bloody Mary' might be in reference to - suggestions range from a Queen of England to a possible vampire to a potential witch, burned at the stake during the Witch trials of the early modern period.
