The epithet "Bloody Mary" is associated with a number of historical figures—particularly Queen Mary I of England—and fictional women, especially from folklore. It is believed that inspiration for the cocktail was the Hollywood star Mary Pickford;previously, a similarly red cocktail consisting of rum, grenadine, and Maraschino had been named after her.Other sources trace the name to a waitress named Mary who worked at a Chicago bar called the Bucket of Blood.

If you are referring to Mary I, eldest daughter of Henry VIII of England, you will find all sorts of excellent information in the library or on the internet via simple search.



By the way, you want to write FOR her, and yet justify her nickname Bloody Mary (which is perjorative)???

Because of the amount of people she had executed (beheaded)

It was a lot more than her father and thats why people started calleing her bloody mary

she was catholic and if she found any protestants she burned them at the stake

there was a vicar (or summin religious lik tht) and he wrote a prayer book in english (against catholic rules) and he had his hand cut off

over 300 people died at stake

1 vicar or summin was burned at stake and they put gunpowder round his neck so he could die quicker (cuz they felt lik being nice to him lol) but it didnt light and he was there being burned for hours and hours



she also treated her sister queen elizabeth 1 badly, (i did a paper on her)



she married a spanish man and the spanish were the enimies in those days

i cnt remember anythin else sorry

xxx

btw she was called bloody because of all the deaths and people being burned alive/at the stake



and its not a legend it is true as long as you are talking about Queen Mary Tudor- daughter of Henry 8th and catherine of Aragon( his 1st wife)

First of all you need to figure out which theory you are going with here. There are several different theories of who she even was.



a woman named Mary Worth, who was horribly disfigured in a car crash



a witch who was burned at the stake and has returned for revenge



or it may be the devil himself who comes for your soul



***Whichever one you chose, you need to remember this story is a legend. There is no confirmation of Mary at all...

She was the reason behind the persecution of many Protestants during her reign. You're talking about Queen Mary, right? Unless you're refering to the ghost...
