Bloody Mary’s House
Bloody Mary’s house is the private residence of the mystic and medium Bloody Mary in the middle of New Orleans. New Orleans is home to the highest mortality rate in North America for the last two centuries, with ghosts all over the town. According to Bloody Mary, most of us have spirits travel with us all the time, whether they are spiritual guides, ancestors, or guardian angels. The old lady that lived in the house before her watches over the house and doesn’t cause any harm or trouble. She sees her as a small woman who walks in the hallways.
Her husband and child have also seen the former owner. Another ghost is named Thomas, a 35 year-old man who seems to be both jealous and protective of Bloody Mary. For instance, he didn’t like her ex-boyfriend, so whenever he came over the electricity would go out in the bedroom and parlor. Once he left, everything went back to normal. By the time the electrician would go there to check it out, it would be completely fine. There are ghosts in the attic that are heard on many occasions but are now sealed in with holy oil.
In her sons room, the attic creaked open on its own. In five years, the door had been incredibly hard to open, and never did its own. Ever since then, she sealed the door with holy oil and forbade anything but protective spirits to go in there again. She sees orbs every night in which she describes as green balls measuring in about 7 to 12 inches in diameter that float around the bedroom and living room. Bloody Mary believes that she can control the amount of spirit activity in her house, battling away negative spirits, and keeping those that are protective.

yeah i understand the story. but i dont understand the whole bloody mary thing that people say is true with the mirror and saying that if you turn around and say bloody mary 3 times and look in the mirror she will appear and slit your throat or something..and i dont get the doing it in the dark.These things just really confuse me.

Yea, its a urban legend. What makes an urban legend unique is not knowing where it came from. If you start an urban legend and people know that you came up with it, it loses all value. This urban legend, despite the many attempts that people tried it, still spreads because no one knows who started it and because it is scary. It doesn’t appear to work from what I’ve heard but it still goes around for those two reasons.

Um…Bloody Mary is the name of the woman who lives in that house. She’s a fully initiated Voodoo priestess and spiritual medium, and she also happens to run her own walking tour company.
Yes, Bloody Mary is the name of an urban legend. But this article is talking about an actual person.
We appreciate your input Herutu. Our title is called “Bloody Mary’s House”, which indicates that we are talking about a person’s house, “Bloody Mary”.
Urban Legends can be people also. For instance, I know that she is an actual person, but some people don’t know that and classify her as an urban legend, which is why Chris placed this article under the Urban Legends category.
