Nothing, unlike if you chew wintergreen lifesavers in a dark room in front of a mirror. They at least send sparks around your teeth.

I am not sure about Bloody Mary but I do know that [similar to what MikeD81 has said regarding mirrors] people have sat in a enclosed area with a mirror surrounded by black curtains and the idea is that your dear departed relative(s) will eventually appear - now I attempted to try it one night for curiousity sake but I found it unnerving staring into darkness so I quickly gave up. The reference to ghosts and mirrors is seen in the movies The Grudge and if you'll notice, that supernatural events happened with a mirror close by in the movie "The Shining." But if you want to read about a real evil occurrence read up on the Hungarian "Blood Countess" Elizabeth Bathory! She was a noble that grew up immersed in a violent time with bloodthirsty rulers all around but she was personally responsible for the murders of many young women. Wikipedia has a great article on her. Anyways, sorry I sort of diverged there!

Is she the one that bathed in girl's blood to keep herself young and beautiful forever?

My cousin even tried putting two candles by the mirror, telling me to do that. I just laughed at her! :P

Haha! No!
I tried it when I was little and was terrified that I was next on Mary's list.

I did it,me and my friend were on the phone and we called her at the same time."Bloody Mary,Bloody Mary,Bloody Mary!!!"We each saw a tad of our reflection with red tint on the mirror.Mmmm.Bloody Mary hates me!
But I have been known to have nervous break-downs when I was a kid.
