The investigation begins when a number of teenage girls are found to have been horribly murdered during a sleepover. Their bodies are found in a circle on the floor, around an old, circular mirror. Only one survived, and she has gone insane, endlessly repeating the words ‘Bloody Mary’.
Possibilities
1 The mirror is enchanted, and forms a gate to a distant world. It was enchanted by the distant ancestor of one of the girls and has remained in their family ever since. The weird visions occasionally glimpsed through it have given it a reputation for being haunted. When the girls performed the famous ‘Bloody Mary’ ritual game at the sleepover using the mirror, it attracted the attention of one of the planet’s inhabitants, who burst through and killed them, and has now taken a liking to Earth and developed a taste for its inhabitants...
2 The girls were performing a ritual from an internet site to contact a ‘spirit’. Unfortunately, this spirit was Nyarlathotep and when he appeared in the mirror several of the girls went insane and killed their friends and each other with kitchen knives.
3 The murders were committed by a psychopath who later strikes again, in each case recreating a well known urban legend with his killing. But witnesses descriptions suggest that a different man commits each crime, and this suggests paranormal involvement.
