Versions of chicken Mary
Version One:

The story starts when a young girl named Mary Worth falls pregnant. It was a one night stand and she doesn't want to keep the baby, but after it's born, Mary becomes attached to the infant. But after only a year of her child's life, she wakes up to find the child murdered in it's crib, causing her to go mad with grief. Whilst sitting in front of a mirror and bawling her eyes out, she grabs a knife and stabs herself repeatedly. Now, the legend goes that if you call her name three times in pitch black into a mirror, she'll come out and try to kill you.

Version Two:

Mary Worth's a witch. Not a black witch with the whole broomstick and cat with yellow eyes and dark magic; a white witch, who mastered in medicines and herbal remedies. The villagers would always send their children there when they were ill and they'd come back healthy and fit. But, after a while, the kids failed to return home. Mary was soon hated by the villagers who called her a murderer, and blamed her for killing their kids. When her home was searched, several bodies of children were found in weird places. But Mary was innocent - that's all people know. She was burned at the stake, with a mirror held up in front of her to show her what filth she was.
