4. Bloody Mary
The ritual of summoning Bloody Mary was not always a scary one. In the days before Tinder, women was walk backwards up a flight of stairs at night time holding only a candle and a mirror. When they looked into the mirror, they would either see the face of their future husband or the grim reaper which meant that they would die before they were married.
"On halloween look in the glass, you future husband's face will pass."
Perhaps it's the association with Halloween that turned this 'harmless' maid's game into a one of daring and horror. The modern day legend is that if you chant Bloody Mary's name three times into a mirror then she will appear how she died and if she doesn't kill you, then she will make your life very unpleasant. She is known to tear out your eyes, scratch your skin and even haunt you. If you're brave enough to try this little experiment, then feel free to post your results in the thread below.
