Mary Worth is said to live in Massachusetts during the 17th century. Her face was hideously disfigured with dark red scars. Children in the town teased her and called her "Bloody Mary" and followed her around the town chanting her name. During one of the colony's witch scares, Mary was accused of being in league with the devil and was hanged. One night, not long after Mary's execution, sa group of children decided to play at conjuring. They set up a mirror against the wall and sat in a semicircle around it. Then they began to chant, "Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary." When they had chanted her name the 99th time, Mary Worth appeared in the mirror. Her face was more hideous than ever. Her hands had turned into claws. She reached through the looking glass to tear the children's faces.
Shrieking and screaming, the terrified children tumbled out of the room.
Although Bloody Mary disappeared that day, her spirit remains, waiting for someone to call her name.
