Okay, urban legend it is. I'm trying to come up with something! Just trying, not promising anything. But I'm really putting a thought into it - came up with a new drink to help if any of you are interested. A glass of dry red wine with 50ml shot of raspberry vodka (can be any vodka, but if it's straight vodka, the wine better be semi-sweet) and seltzer (half of a wine glass). If this doesn't help me I just should stop thinking of writing anything forever.
Thanks Pia My God, I was going through it and saw the Black Volga. I was one of those scared kids that would watch out for it. We had that type of a car in Soviet Union. And there were stories... I remember how I would scan the streets for it. It was real! Wow. Seeing it now in a list of urban legends is surreal.

Well I never heard of the elevator game, but the bloody Mary thing as we all know entails going into a bathroom or other room that has a mirror, turning off the light, and saying her name over and over until your reflection turns into a corpse face.
Personally, it never worked for me. If you're into dark bathroom mirror games, wint o' green lifesavers are much more entertaining (they make green sparks if you chew with your mouth open, at least they did when I was a kid).
