In this spine-chilling episode, we dive deep into the infamous urban legend of Bloody Mary, exploring the dark ritual of summoning a spectral entity by chanting her name in front of a mirror. We unravel the mysterious origins of this supernatural game, examining its cultural roots and psychological underpinnings, including the Troxler effect that might explain some of its seemingly paranormal manifestations.

Join us as we share personal encounters with the legend, from bone-chilling stories of sobbing spirits to terrifying visions of headless women. We'll connect Bloody Mary to other paranormal practices like Ouija boards and mirror gazing and even introduce you to the lesser-known rocking chair baby doll ritual that shares its haunting DNA.

Are you brave enough to listen? Prepare for a journey into the shadowy world of supernatural summoning. Just don't say her name three times…

What if every déjà vu moment is actually a window into another version of yourself? Join us this week on an all new Hidden in The Shadows episode as we shatter the boundaries of perception, diving deep into mind-bending experiences that challenge everything you thought you knew about reality. From spontaneous human combustion and quantum immortality to encounters with people who seem more like programmed NPCs than actual humans, this episode peels back the layers of our perceived existence.

Hear firsthand accounts of near-impossible experiences: a car crash that mysteriously resolves itself, memories that shift without explanation, and encounters so strange they'll make you question the very fabric of reality. Are we living in a simulation? Are multiple versions of ourselves playing out simultaneously in different dimensions?

Buckle up for a journey that blurs the lines between science, paranormal phenomena, and pure unexplainable mystery. By the end of this episode, you'll never look at a moment of déjà vu the same way again.

The next time reality feels... off... you might want to pay attention.
