LEGEND: Bloody Mary
Manage episode 276001588 series 2815964
The Bloody Mary summoning ritual crosses centuries and cultures, but why? Where did it begin? And why does it keep spreading?
The Ain't No Such Thing team of Amanda, Jess & Kevin tackles these questions and more in this episode. The summoning of Bloody Mary is essentially amateur spell casting, so we break down the elements of the spell and explore why it works or why it might not, as well as one essential element of summoning spells that's always left out when conjuring Bloody Mary.
Jess reveals potential links between the Bloody Mary legend and 16-17th century serial killer, Elizabeth Bathory, and Amanda shares the Japanese version of the ritual, which...doesn't involve mirrors.
And we learn about that time Amanda led a group of fellow school girls to summon Bloody Mary...and it didn't end the way you expect...
