Hide-N-Seek Alone

Introduction:

The "One-Man Hide and Seek," aka the "One-Man Tag," is a ritual for contacting the dead.

The spirits, which are wandering restlessly on the Earth, are always looking for bodies to possess. In this ritual, you will summon such a spirit, by offering it a doll instead of a human body.

Warning: If you have psychic abilities, you may feel unwell or be prone to accidents during the ritual.

ADVERSTISEMENT

Things You'll Need:

One stuff doll. It must have limbsRice, enough to stuff the doll fullOne needle, and one crimson threadOne pair of nail clippersOne sharp-edge tool, such as a knife, glass shard, or scissors (preferably a toothpick)One cup of salt water. Natural salt would be bestA bathroom, with a bathtub and some form of counterA hiding place, preferably a room purified by incense and ofuda. There must be a TV there.

Preparation:

Take out whatever the doll is stuffed with. Once all of its stuffing is removed, re-stuff it with rice.Clip off a few pieces of your nails (or anything else that has your DNA, don't use someone elses or the game won't work properly), and put place them inside the doll. Sew up the opening with the crimson thread. When you finish sewing, tie up the doll with the rest of the thread.Go to the bathroom and fill your bathtub with water (enough to submerge the doll in).Return to your hiding place, and put the cup of salt water on the ground.

How To Begin:

Give a name to your doll. The name could be anything but your own.When the time is 3 AM, say "(your name) is the first it," to the doll three times. Go to the bathroom, and put the doll into the water-filled bathtub. Turn off all of the lights in your house, go back to hiding place, and switch on the TV.After counting to ten with your eyes closed, return to the bathroom with the edged tool in your hand.Go to the bathtub, and say to the doll, "I have found you, (the doll's name)." Stab the doll with the edged tool. 3 timesSay, "You are the next it, (the doll's name)," after you take the doll out of the bathtub, leave it on the counter in the bathroom.A soon as you have put the doll down, run back to the hiding place, and hide.

How To End:

Pour half of the cup of salt water into your mouth. Do not drink it, just keep it there.Get out of your hiding place, and start looking for the doll. The doll is not necessarily in the bathroom. Whatever happens, do not spit out the salt water. When you find the doll, pour the rest of the salt water in the cup over it. Then, spit out the salt water in your mouth onto it as well.Say, "I win," three times. This is to end the ritualAfter this, make sure you dry the doll, burn it afterwards since there's a chance that the spirit will come back and continue the game without your knowledge.

MOST IMPORTANT:

Please do not stop this ritual halfway. You must do it through to the end. This is a dangerous ritual, and I will not be responsible for what happens to you if you try it.

Other Things to Keep in Mind:

Do not leave your house until you have done the finishing ritual. (The doll will follow you outside of your house, and may cause harm to others)You must turn off every single light in your house when told to do so.You must keep quiet while hiding. You do not need to put the salt water in your mouth during the beginning, you only need to do it during the finishing ritual.Remember, if you are living with someone, you might put them in danger too.Keep the ritual/game under two hours, or else the spirit will be too strong to remove.For safety reasons, it might be best to keep all doors in the house unlocked, including your front door. As well, have friends close by, so that they can come and help you at a moment's notice, if you ever need them. Keep a mobile close at hand would be a good idea too.

Notes:

-The rice represents innards, and also has the role of attracting spirits.

-The crimson thread represents blood vessels. It seals the spirit(s) up inside the doll.

-By cutting the thread off, you break the seal and release the spirit(s) you have trapped.

-If you go out of the hiding place without salt water, you may encounter "something wandering around" in your house, which may harm you in some way. The way to feel the presence of "something wandering around" is to watch "what happens to the TV."
