A bride with a bloody gown and knives for fingers stood in Chantal’s door. Her lipless mouth grinned, asking, “You said Bloody Mary in the mirror three times on October 29, 1984, right?”
Chantal ran for the window, but it was stuck shut. One serrated finger slid up her shoulder and neck, until it caressed her ear.
“The folktale that I come for anyone who mocks my name in the mirror is true. I just never said when.”
Holy cripes, that's terrifying. Especially since, yeah, of course I did it when I was a kid, didn't everybody? Or is it just a girl thing?
