Mary I's coat of arms was the same as those used by all her predecessors since Henry IV: Quarterly, Azure three fleurs-de-lys Or [for France] and Gules three lions passant guardant in pale Or ( for England). Sometimes, her arms were impaled (depicted side-by-side) with those of her husband. She adopted "Truth, the Daughter of Time" ( Latin: Veritas Temporis Filia) as her personal motto. [176] Genealogy [ edit ] Born on February 18, 1516, in the Greenwich Palace in London, England, to Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, Mary seemed an unlikely candidate to be queen, let alone a “bloody” one. Her father deeply desired a male heir and spent Mary’s childhood doing whatever it took to get one. Loades, David (1989). "The Reign of Mary Tudor: Historiography and Research."

Staring into a mirror in a dimly lit room for a prolonged period can cause one to hallucinate. [6] Facial features may appear to "melt", distort, disappear, and rotate, while other hallucinatory elements, such as animal or strange faces, may appear. Giovanni Caputo of the University of Urbino writes that this phenomenon, which he calls the "strange-face illusion", is believed to be a consequence of a "dissociative identity effect", which causes the brain's facial-recognition system to misfire in a currently unidentified way. [6] Other possible explanations for the phenomenon include illusions attributed, at least partially, to the perceptual effects of Troxler's fading [7] [6] and possibly apophenia, [8] or even self-hypnosis.

Details about Mary Worth are hazy, including whether or not she existed at all. Haunted Rooms describes her as a witch who allegedly put children under her spell, kidnapped them, murdered them, and then used their blood to stay youthful. And when people in her town found out, they reportedly tied her to a stake and burned her alive. Then, Mary Worth screamed that if they dared say her name in the mirror, she would haunt them. But Bathory’s case may not have been as cut and dry as it seemed. In fact, some modern Hungarian scholars say that it may have been motivated more by others’ power and greed than her supposed evil. Bathory, a scion of a powerful Hungarian family and the product of inbreeding between Baron George Bathory and Baroness Anna Bathory, called the Csejte Castle home. She had received it as a wedding gift from her husband, the famed Hungarian war hero Ferenc Nádasdy.

When Mary died in 1558 at the age of 42, possibly from uterine or ovarian cancer, she died without a child. So, her Protestant half-sister, Elizabeth, took power instead, cementing Protestantism’s place in England. But as the story goes, Bathory didn’t stop there. She allegedly expanded her sights and began killing daughters of the gentry who had been sent to Csejte for their education. She also supposedly kidnapped local girls in the area who would never have come to the castle of their own free will. However, with Henry self-proclaimed head of the Church of England, this rehabilitation was a somewhat uneasy one, as Mary remained a loyal Catholic. Her Catholicism would become the guiding principle of her reign - and would define her reputation following her death. Was Mary I really known as 'Bloody Mary'? According to witnesses, Bathory’s crimes took place between 1590 and 1610, with most of the vicious murders happening after her husband’s death in 1604. Her first targets were said to have been poor girls and young women who were lured to the castle with the promise of servant work.Elizabeth Bathory was born on August 7, 1560, in Nyírbátor, Hungary. Raised in a noble family, Bathory knew a life of privilege from an early age. And some say she would later use that power to commit heinous acts. The weather during the years of Mary's reign was consistently wet. The persistent rain and flooding led to famine. [142] Another problem was the decline of the Antwerp cloth trade. [143] Despite Mary's marriage to Philip, England did not benefit from Spain's enormously lucrative trade with the New World. [144] The mercantilist Spanish guarded their trade routes jealously, and Mary could not condone English smuggling or piracy against her husband. [145] In an attempt to increase trade and rescue the English economy, Mary's counsellors continued Northumberland's policy of seeking out new commercial opportunities. She granted a royal charter to the Muscovy Company under governor Sebastian Cabot, [146] and commissioned a world atlas from Diogo Homem. [147] Adventurers such as John Lok and William Towerson sailed south in an attempt to develop links with the coast of Africa. [148]
