Bloody Mary

The story tells about the spirit of a young woman named Mary who had a tragic death. She was buried but some say she was still alive. His father was a scientist, he had a concoction that slowed heart rate, respiration and body temperature, emulating the state of death.

Apparently the girl drank the concoction, but her family was not aware of the act, believing that she had died. Then, she was buried and her family mourned her loss. Later, when her vital signs returned to normal, Mary found herself in a prison underground. She tried to scream but to no avail, she tried vainly to open the coffin from the inside but all she did was to leave her nails buried in the coffin, covering with blood all around.

Days after, Mary's father couldn't find the concoction, he realized his error, his daughter had been buried. Then, with a vague hope, he ordered to exhume the body, but he only encountered with the terrifying scene which added to the face of despair... she was already dead.

It is said, that from that time Mary finds no rest and that his soul has been trapped between the world of the living and the dead , making moving through the mirrors that in many cultures have been described as portals to other dimensions.

The way to invoke Mary is carried out, by pronouncing the name "Bloody Mary " in front of a mirror at midnight with the lights off, and this is going slowly turning red as an indication of the presence of spirit. After all, the only thing that awaits the person reflecting is death. It is said that the eyes of humans who see their image are torn and their face is disfigured. Another version says that the spirit takes hold of the first object it sees, then it pierces, cuts, and stabs the victim until death by exsanguination.

Similar stories have been told for generations over time. Veronica in Spain is more like the story of Mary and that according to folklore, she can be invoked through a mirror and comes to life against those who dare to disturb her.
