According to urban legend, if an individual stands in front of a mirror and recites "Bloody Mary" three times, the horrid spirit of a vengeful woman is summoned.

Chaos ensues.

The Bloody Mary Show is an ongoing British web series adaptation of the American myth - not to be confused with the historical figure of the same name.

As the series opens, two young girls are putting the legend to the test. When Bloody Mary appears, she is not what is expected.

The Bloody Mary Show is not only a funny satire of American and British urban legends, but also of dramatic tropes in general.

Primarily set in the otherworldy bar Hemingways, Mary and her spectral friends commiserate about their professional and personal quandaries.

Think of it as a supernatural version of the sitcom Cheers.

Honestly, I can't divulge more details about the plot without spoiling some very delightful surprises .

However, if you are ready for a cleverly written, funny web series about supernatural creatures other than cliche´ vampires or zombies, The Bloody Mary Show is exactly what the doctor ordered.
