Show Notes

The legend of Bloody Mary tells the story of a ghostly figure who appears when summoned in front of a mirror. According to folklore, Bloody Mary was a witch named Mary Worth.


Mary's reputation had spread throughout her village, with many assuming her to be a witch as she lived in a small cabin within the forest and sold tinctures and herbal remedies. The locals kept their distance from her, fearing that any interaction with her would result in a curse on themselves or their animals. Those who used her remedies were shunned by the community, leaving Mary to live a life of isolation.


Before long, young girls began to vanish mysteriously. Despite their best efforts, the villagers scoured every inch of the area, but found no trace of the missing children. A group of brave souls even dared to venture towards Bloody Mary's cabin in hopes of finding answers but the witch denied any involvement in the disappearances. Strangely, Bloody Mary's appearance had changed drastically; once elderly and worn, she now appeared more youthful and feminine, but despite their suspicions, there seemed to be little they could do.
