Many years ago, Mary Whales fell ill and died, suffering from catalepsy.
She was buried by her family, who added a tie that connected to a bell that Mary would ring if she came back to life.
She woke up and rang the bell, but no one heard her.
Sometime later, her relatives realized that the bell had been thrown, and when Mary was unearthed, they found her without nails and with bloody hands; but before she died, she cast a curse: when someone is in front of a mirror and they call her mentioning her name three times they will die, but before that you will hear the bell that nobody heard when she died.
I investigated the true story of Bloody Mary, not that of Queen Mary I; but, the real Bloody Mary, because of what happened to several people and one of them is, my friend, Christine Monroy.
Still, it tears me inside and out completely, what happened to my friend who, I miss her a lot. We, we knew each other since we were children and we have always lived in Maine; Like, our parents, we met when we were in kindergarten.
Our lives have never been splendid or fabulous; but we have always considered ourselves fortunate, having all our families, with us at all times.
On the other hand, we are fortunate that our parents are still married, because most of our friends come from divorced parents and that is something that we always give thanks to Jehovah.
From the age of thirteen, we have begun to hear the true story of the famous "Bloody Mary"; but I never paid attention to them because I thought they were just urban legends.
Also, we have heard that most people have died, when in front of the mirror and for fun, they mention Mary's name three times. Before she appears, they have heard Mary's bell; then she appears and kills her victims.
I remember that my friend, Christine Monroy, once told me that she wanted to do the same, to find out if the legend of the famous Bloody Mary is true.
"Are you crazy? Do you think what they say is a lie? What if something happened to you? Do you think you could live if something happened to you?" I asked, nervous at my friend's answer to find out if Bloody Mary, it is real.
Deep down, I was and was afraid of just thinking that I could lose my friend who always wants to play detectives.
"I know that all this puts your nerves on edge; but isn't it curious to investigate about her? Because I am curious to investigate thoroughly about her; also, calm down because I know that nothing will happen to me, You'll see, "she answered, sure of her answer and confident that nothing will happen to her.
He did not want to continue the conversation; so, we left it unfinished.
Days later, when I wanted to continue the conversation, I found out that he was no longer living in Maine because his dad had a job that was difficult to turn down in Massachusetts; because her grandmother was not well, they were the two factors, so she left without saying goodbye.
