Legend has it that 100 years ago there was a woman named Mary Worth. Mary was involved in a terrible accident in which her face was scratched and scared beyond recognition and she bled to death. But her soul was in torment and could not rest and she supposedly now roams the earth as an evil spirit.
The legend states that if you stand in front of a mirror in the dark and say her name ten times, you will see her horribly disfigured face appear. It also states that if you stare into her eyes and get too close she will reach through the mirror and try to scratch your face off or pull you into the mirror where your soul will lie in eternal torment. This story has been told many times in countless variations and remains one of the most well known of the horror legends to this day.
