Holidays....

Note: It's a risk reading this post. You'll see.

Holidays are very boring. Okay maybe not very boring. Boring. Because I have nothing to do except Jeet's homework, which is circles circles circles.

Ghost's festival is over, so I hope it's a shut up for the pantang thing. Unfortunately, but my mind couldn't shut up about that Bloody Mary ghost.

Bloody Mary is a spirit of a mother (often a widow) who murdered her children or a young mother whose baby stolen from her, and yeah she goes mad with grief, what else? Commit suicide. Typical And creepy.

Divination rituals such as the one depicted on this early 20th century Halloween greeting card, where a woman stares into a mirror in a darkened room to catch a glimpse of the face of her future husband, while a witch lurks in the shadows, may be one origin of the Bloody Mary legend. However, there a chance they would see the face of the Grim Reaper instead, which means they will die as virgins......


I read this person's blog, and I happened to come across this----

To summon Bloody Mary you have to go into a bathroom at the stroke of midnight and stand in front of the mirror with a lit candle and with the lights turned off. You chant her name 3 times, “Bloody Mary… Bloody Mary… Bloody Mary…” and then you shout, “I stole your baby!”

And then… in the mirror… you will see the face of a horribly disfigured woman — and she’ll claw your face with razor-sharp nails, leaving you just as terribly mutilated as she is!

The most frightening story in the collection actually didn't even have a ritual. Some people say that if you walk by a mirror in total darkness, regardless of whether you are trying to summon her or not, Bloody Mary will get you.

But if you see Bloody Mary from another angle, it is a popular cocktail containing Vodka and tomato juice.

Okay now don't tell me you can't sleep. I warned you.

Ugh, Siew Jun, now I wish you hadn't told me about the Bloody Mary story.
