Agnes Sampson, A Scottish Witch, Tortured To Death

The witch trials occurred when everyone could be a victim of accusations leading to torture and horrible deaths. But some of the worst stories of witchcraft lead to Scotland, and Agnes Sampson is one of them.

The History Of Agnes Sampson

Agnes Sampson was a widow and mother who lived in Scotland. She was mainly a healer and a midwife. There is little information on her life or documentation as a citizen because Agnes was the village’s healer and midwife. She was a kind person who kept to herself, most likely, but she was the perfect scapegoat: woman, older, widow, healer.

Why would King James VI need a scapegoat? As mentioned in the previous article about Scotland’s witch trials, the king’s voyage back to English territory was overlooked by a storm. His marriage to Anne of Denmark brought him to Scandinavian lands, and on their way back, the storm forced them to take refuge in Norway.

Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Who Is This Bloody Mary?

As a child, we all played that little scary game of going in the bathroom with one candle in front of the mirror to say her name three times. Many legends arose about who she was, but who is she?

Do You Remember The Game From Your Childhood?

Bloody Mary is one of the classic spooky games that requires nothing to play except a bathroom. The goal of the game remained the same. Players must try to summon the ghost of Bloody Mary with a lit candle by looking in a bathroom mirror.

The player stares at their reflection while reciting the name Bloody Mary three times. Some other variation says to do it five times. The player is often a volunteer, but if none speaks up, it is often decided by drawing straws, and who has the shortest straw goes in the bathroom.

THE DEEP DARK

by: Francis J. Burns

The deep dark had come, that time between two and four a.m., when most of the world can be found clutched in the bowels of sleep. A heavy mist slithered in from the sea. Saint Theresa of the Blessed Heart Hospital was hushed. Roan settled further into his chair as he read, fleeing from the creeping chill. Beside him, Selena rested. Her breathing was slow, even, comforting in its regularity. He glanced at her every so often when the clacking of shoes on tile stirred him from his book. In the cavernous silence, the pages whispered with each turning. The story, lifted from his favorite video game series, captivated him.
