    Bloody Mary

    You know the game: you stand in front of the mirror and say her name three times: Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary… But that’s just a playground legend, right?

Such great story telling

Every episode so far has been great. I love the intros, the narrator sucks me in every time. I love the POV told stories. Great background music. If you like the creepy, I highly recommend
