Summon Mary

Yesterday when my cousins were here, summoning Bloody Mary came up because of the power outage. Both were interested in how to successfully summon Bloody Mary and I showed Samantha my detailed instructions on how to do it. Unfortunately, I was unable to show Charlie because I didn't have power at the time. So I thought I would revisit, for their sake and yours, how to successfully summon Bloody Mary.

The legend has gone through so many incarnations; no one really knows exactly how the legend began, although Queen Mary I of England’s executions of nearly 300 Protestants gave her the moniker “Bloody Mary”. Conversely, the most popular legend has a woman named Mary Worth killing her five children. Mary Worth is the true Bloody Mary and so the following ritual was developed with this legend in mind. I must warn you, by performing the following ritual, you absolutely take your life and sanity in your hands.

NOT FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY WILL RESULT IN DEATH!!
What happens when you summon Bloody Mary? A violent and gruesome death for those who don’t correctly summon her. The ritual begins at midnight, on any of the cross-quarter days. Midnight or solar midnight is the axis that links our world to the otherworld; it’s key that you set up before midnight. Here is the most important part of the ritual, if you don’t, Bloody Mary will not appear. You must wet the bathroom mirror with water! Water acts as a conduit to the dead. Next, light five candles and place them evenly spaced from one end of the mirror to the other. This binds Bloody Mary to the mirror as each candle represents one of her murdered children’s spirits. Do not attempt this without the five candles; it is the power of the five spirits that binds Bloody Mary to the mirror. Without the five candles, Bloody Mary will cross over and kill the summoner. The closer to the mirror you place the candles, the closer she will appear to you, as she must stand behind the reflection of the candles. You must then chant “Bloody Mary” five times, once for each of her dead children, at which point she will appear.
