Hi there My name is ~SweetJean~ and I am 30 years old.  I live in Texas and when I was a little girl about 9years old me and my cousins would always spend the night at each others houses.  Our parents always went out to bars and party's and It was fun for us to hang out.  We are very protective and close now as adults.  Anyway, there used to be something that my cousins would do called "bloody mary"  I being a scardy cat never did it and was always left by myself alone while my cousins clamered into the bathroom.  What you were supposed to do was go into the bathroom, turn of the light, light a candle or turn on a flashlight for minimal visuality, turn on the facet and put your hand under the running water.  While the water ran on your hand you were supposed to make a cross on your palm with the other hand. Then you look into the mirror and say 3 times slowly and scary like "bloody mary, bloody mary,.........bloodymary" and she was supposed to appear in the mirror and the water was supposed to appear as if it were  blood.  SCARY! Then of course run outta there like a bat outta hell.  I never did it but my cousins were always sure they saw something. 

A typical rendition of the Mary Worth scare-story will usually begin with the details of a woman named Mary who was horribly disfigured and / or killed in an accident. Her tormented spirit can be summoned, the story claims, by standing in front of a mirror and chanting her name a prescribed number of times (sometimes 3, 5, 9, 13 times and so on). When you have spoken her name for the 3rd (or 5th or 9th...) time you will either see her terrible face in the mirror (and die of fright etc) or she will appear from the mirror and claw your face.

HAVE YOU BEEN TO THE TRACKS LATELY?
 
I am about to tell you another story.  The events that lead up to this I dont know if there is any truth to the story.  What is happening now is true.  I will begin at the begining to the best of my knowledge. Please let me know if this has happend in your home town.  It would be so interesting to know!
 
Well, there was a bus of grade school children.  (I dont where they were going or coming from.)  They were on there way to crossing a railroad track when the bus suddenly dies.  The driver tries to start the bus, Im sure, but has no luck.  As you guessed it a train was well on its way.  Needless to say the children did not survive.  So know, many, many years later high school kids (really people of all ages, but mostly teenagers) go to "the tracks" on the weekend for fun and for a bit of a scare cause you see.... What everyone and there mother knows is that there is a mysterious force on those tracks on that very spot where those children where killed. 
What you are supposed to do is drive over and pass the trackes and turn around so that your car is facing the tracks.  You need to be about 50-100 feet or so away from the tracks.  You need to turn off your car and put it in neutral.  Turn off your lights(for added scaryness cause there are not street lights there) and slowly but surely your car will begin to creep its way down and over the tracks!  Which happens to be uphill. Not a big hill but still at an incline. Supposedly, the ghost of those very children are wondering around there.  They are the ones pushing your car over the tracks!  They don't want the same thing to happen to you what happend to them! Scarey Right?
What people do is, before going out there, put baby powder on the bumper of your car.  When you get home after or get to a gas station you're supposed to look at the bumper and supposedly there should be little hand prints of children from them pushing your car over the tracks!  
Know, I know this sound weird but I myself have been there many times.  It's no big deal to the people who live here.  Its just something that the teenagers do on the weekend.  The last time I went was about a year ago with my then boyfriend Gilbert.  We were driving around town after hours and just ended up in that part of town.  I said it would be fun to go to the tracks. So we went, no big deal.  Know, to newcomers, there all scared and cant believe it.  Like I said its no big deal and me and my sister and her husband took my son and her kids there for fun one night about 2 years ago.  The kids ages were  4y/o, 5 y/o, 12 y/o, and 16 y/o. Also, I almost forgot to mention, All the street past the tracks are all named after the children that died.  The names of the streets are like, MaryJo, StevenRay, JeannieMae and so on.  If you have any questions please feel free to email me or sign my guestbook.  ~SweetJean~
