Bloody Mary | The Ghost in the Mirror
Рет қаралды 17,262
Күн бұрынFew urban legends have received the fame of Bloody Mary. As tradition goes, one may summon this ghost by repeatedly saying her name in a mirror, with the lights turned off. If all goes to plan, Bloody Mary's gruesome image will appear in the mirror standing behind the person who summoned her. Some say she will grant wisdom or reveal the future, others that she may attack the one who summoned her. A macabre legend indeed, but was Bloody Mary based upon a real life person?

The Candyman movies are based on the myth of the Bloody Mary.

I’m surprised that no horror movie maker has created a franchise with sequels out of Bloody Mary. It seems like the majority of the Bloody Mary movies are straight to video movies that have nothing to do with each other. Bloody Mary movies could be on the same level as the Annabelle franchise.

Add to it, the purple mirror urban legend, & that might be a fun franchise to watch.

The trick is, when she shows up after saying her name three times, you offer her a bouquet of flowers and a ring, then ask if she'd like to go out for dinner. All she wants is to feel loved.

It's not a myth it falls under the category of urban legend. I wish I knew where it came from but nobody can tell with these. Great idea though.

I have a copy of "The Daring Book for Girls" by Andrea J. Buchanan and Miriam Peskowitz and one of the sections involves 'Bloody Mary'. However, being the smart person that I am, I know better than to mess with the paranormal.

I do believe Queen Mary did inspire the legend of bloody Mary which that legend inspired the character in the fairytale Alice in Wonderland, the Queen of hearts I think was she inspired? Also, I do think the legend of bloody Mary was a big inspiration to the candy man movies, particularly the things with the same names in the mirrors, I see that connection Clive Barker, probably that legend, and probably added that into his own story, the story of candy man which was a book before it was a movie. I’m British, so I will claim is our own. Legend every country is got one or many

The story also mentioned Alice having an older sister. Perhaps her name was Mary?

When I was a kid my parents took me every day to a day camp, and that's where I first heard the legend of Bloody Mary. I was told that it was the ghost of Queen Mary. I can't remember if I actually did the ritual (tho I know some girls who did, and then screamed and ran away, saying they had seen her), but I did tell all the younger kids about it, resulting in the counselors calling all of us older kids in and saying, "We don't know which one of you has been telling the younger kids about Bloody Mary, but stop it because you're scaring them!"

From any possibilities, I've learned this from Urban legends, and my brother shared me the movie "Candyman" 1992, based on Bloody Mary's Ghost in the Mirror. Summoning the ghost in the mirror, by calling their names, was like a magic spell to put a curse on. I'm very much fascinated with the idea, but still confused with it's ghostly visual ways.

Different from Bloody Mary, in Brazil the Loira do Banheiro legend (Bathroom Blonde, in English) has an known origin, and it's nearby my city. You need to do a video on her, because she terrorized schools in Brazil during the entirety of the 20th century and up to this day. It's impossible not to found someone attained to her legend around here.

It was pretty good about the history of Bloody Mary I did not know you could summon her that way they made a drink called a bloody Mary
@labelledamedumanor4876 Жыл бұрын
The drink had nothing to do with Mary Tudor. It was called that after a newly invented cocktail which was being drunk by a famous actress with the 1st name Mary. She had an accident with the glass & her dress got ruined, she quoted, "You can call me Bloody Mary now."

I always heard that "Bloody Mary" was Mary Tudor, Queen of England and daughter of Henry the 8th. When you stand in front of the mirror you chanted "I hate Bloody Mary!" Then you saw her in the mirror.

Our most violent queen anyway I’m saying that being a British person she was almost violent and what she did was madness, probably why she inspired the urban legend, and the character in the fairytale Alison Wonderland, the Queen of hearts which I was just explaining the urban legend of bloody Mary PRETTYMUCH inspired the Candyman movies, which I can see that with saying the name to summon the entity

You would not. She'd have you killed for being an atheist. She was already married to Philip of Spain, her OWN COUSIN!!!! She had a condition that made her develop a phantom pregnancy as well, that condition no doubt contributed to her death. She was her father's daughter & NO MISTAKE! Just be grateful she wasn't the type to take numerous husbands.
