There's also the story of Bloody Mary. Legend has it that if you go into a dark bathroom, light some candles, and say 'Bloody Mary' three times while looking into the mirror, a ghostly figure will appear. It may have originated from tales of a woman named Mary who was wronged and now haunts those who summon her. This one preys on our fear of the supernatural and the power of superstition.
