Whoa I thought the only scary thing in the mirror was my own reflection but I guess I
was wrong.
There’s just something about mirrors that freak a lot of people out.
Some say that spirits can live in the mirror and terrorize and haunt your home, while others
say that mirrors are passageways to other dimensions.
So let’s looks at some of these scary mirror stories.
How’s it going you guys?
I’m your host Landon Dowlatsingh and welcome back to another most amazing video.
Before we jump into this one, I just want to let you guys know that we’ve created
a new top 10 channel that’s all about movies and tv shows.
So if that’s something that interests you, click right over here and subscribe.
Alright let’s get into it, this is the top 10 scary mirror stories.
Starting us off in at number 10, Shattered mirrors damage your soul.
According to many superstitions and urban legends, if you break a mirror – you will
have seven years of bad luck.
And that’s because a lot of these old urban legends believe that the mirror is a projection
of your appearance and your soul.
So, if you break a mirror, you are essentially breaking your soul into pieces.
So now that your soul is damaged, it isn’t able to protect you from bad luck.
Or they also believe that the damaged soul is looking to get revenge on the person that
damaged it.
They say that this revenge includes the death of a close friend or the death of someone
in your house.
Well, I guess I won’t have too much luck for the next seven years because this happened
to me not too long ago
Dead souls are trapped in your mirror and this fun little fact takes us to number 9.
In Jewish culture, when someone dies, all of the mirrors are supposed to be covered
up in the house while the family mourn for a week.
This is known as sitting shiva and according to old Jewish legends, this is because demons
visit the homes where there has been a tragedy or great loss.
They say that these demons can’t be seen with the naked eye, you can only see their
reflection in the mirror.
And in some Dutch and German cultures, mirrors are covered up after a death because it is
believed that if you see your reflection after a member of your family has died, it usually
means that you are the next one to go.
Ghosts are living in your mirror, waiting to attack you and this brings us to number
8.
Be right back, I’m just going to remove all of my mirrors and any reflective surfaces.
I’m sure we’ve all been guilty of trying to summon bloody Mary into our pitch-black
bathrooms.
But in case you’ve never heard of her, you are supposed to go into a bathroom, look into
a mirror and chant Bloody Mary three times.
This girl has no idea what’s about to go down.
According to the legend, Bloody Mary was a murderer or she is a demon who is supposed
to lunge out of the mirror and attack you.
In all honesty, I have no idea why we try to summon her, she sounds terrible and this
seems like a really bad life decision.
Mirrors are pathways to other dimensions and this takes us into number 7.
Lot’s of people believe that mirrors can be used as a portal by ghosts and other evil
spirts to enter your home.
If you do a quick google search you will see hundreds of scary paranormal stories about
antique mirrors.
They say that if you sit in front of a mirror in a darkened room with a single lit candle,
you’ll be able to see spirits that are in your home through the mirror.
If you are feeling adventurous, there is a different but more extreme set up that will
supposedly allow you to communicate with the spirits in your home.
This complicated version is known as the Apparition booth.
Basically, you need a darkened room with a series of mirrors set up in a specific way
which will allow you to see and communicate with the spirits.
But honestly, I think I’m good.
I don’t have that urge to talk to scary possessed demons that might be terrorizing
my home.
A haunted mirror comes crashing onto this list in at number 6.
Let me take you guys over to the infamous Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville, Louisiana.
The house was built in 1796 and it is known to be one of the most haunted historical locations
in the South of the US.
In one of the hallways, across from a large wooden staircase – there is a large, rectangular
mirror with a gold frame.
The mirror has been in the house for over two centuries and there are a ton of horror
stories that go along with this mirror.
According to one of the stories, a family is trapped inside of the mirror and they are
responsible for haunting the house.
Tourists from all over the world come to this house to take a picture in front of this creepy
mirror.
If you decide to go and take a picture – just be warned, you might not like what you see
in the picture and you might experience some scary paranormal activity.
The dark mirror haunts us in at number 5.
A woman discovered a small mirror with black glass at a psychic expo and she hoped that
she would be able to use this mirror to see into her future.
Just days after the purchase, she began to act very withdrawn and quiet.
The woman claimed that the black mirror was evil and it was causing her to lose control
of herself.
The family contacted a husband and a wife who ran a paranormal and occult museum and
they were thrilled to add this black mirror to their collection.
But they quickly realized just how evil this mirror really was.
Anyone who looked into the mirror said that they saw their dead corpse in the reflection
and they would immediately turn pale.
The mirror has a way of drawing people in and once you look into this black mirror,
you can never unsee what you saw.
It will haunt you for the rest of your life.
Things get handsy in at number 4.
Let’s talk about the hand mirror game.
Do this right now, go to a mirror in your house and place your hand against the glass.
Don’t worry, you can use your Windex after.
Keep your hand firmly against the glass and just wait until you feel something.
Depending on how sensitive your hand is, it might take a little while but sometimes it
only takes a moment.
When you feel it, you’ll definitely know something is strange.
After you experience this weird feeling, you will suddenly pull your hand away from the
mirror.
It’s hard to explain but you’re going to feel uneasy and it feels like something
or someone is lurking behind the glass, wriggling against your skin.
It doesn’t physically hurt you but you will feel like something is there, watching you…
Scratching her way into number 3 we have blue baby.
This is another mirror game that involves chanting and summoning an evil spirit.
I don’t know why you guys find these games appealing?
They scare the shit out of me.
But for your sake, I’ll explain the game.
Go pretend to rock a baby in your arms and while standing in the dark in front of a bathroom
and say “blue baby” 13 times.
If done correctly, a scary, evil looking baby will appear in your arms and try to scratch
your eyes out.
You’re supposed to drop the baby and run for your life.
If you don’t, baby blue’s mother will show up and scream “give my baby back”
and her scream will be loud enough to shatter the mirror.
If you don’t drop her baby and run, she will kill you.
Like I said, I don’t see the appeal of this game.
What ever happened to playing monopoly or risk?
What has the world come to?
The haunted mirror shakes things up in at number 2.
A man from Mexico purchased an old Victorian wall mirror from an antique store but as he
went to swipe his card, the owner told him a few warning signs about the mirror.
He said that the mirror must always be covered up the during the night but he never explained
why.
If the store owner told me that, I’d definitely want a refund because I would for sure forget
to cover it up at night.
So once this guy got home, he looked into the mirror and then covered it up for the
night.
When the sun went down, he heard someone knocking from inside of the covered mirror.
So, he got really curious and decided to break the rules and take a look at this creepy mirror.
He said that he saw his own reflection knocking through the other side of the mirror with
a twisted and sinister smile.
He tried to run but he was paralyzed.
He said that his reflection tried to get out of the mirror and pull him through.
The lady spades terrifies us in at number 1.
This is probably the most dangerous and scary mirror paranormal games out there.
So don’t say I didn’t warn you.
This ritual involves summoning a very angry female spirit that will appear in your mirror.
The ritual is similar to bloody Mary, except if you do everything right – you might have
a chance to ask for a wish.
But just like everything in life, everything has a price.
You have to start this ritual at exactly midnight in a quiet, dark room.
Next you will have to chant Lady Spades appear seven times.
If everything is done correctly, you’ll see a lady dressed in black with a mangled
and scarred face with dark eyes.
You can ask her to grant you your wish.
But, if you messed up the ritual, you will feel her getting closer and closer to you.
You might even feel her cold hands wrapped around your throat and strangling you.
Oh and she might decide to stick around your house even after you smash the mirror.
So is that one wish really worth the hassle of having an angry spirit lurk around your
house…watching you sleep?
I don’t think so.
I’ll just keep throwing my coins into a fountain because there’s no way that I would
try to summon the Queen of Spades.
. Well there you guys have it…
I don’t know about you, but I think my mission for today will be to get rid of every mirror
in my house.
But hopefully I don’t break any…
