Who Bloody Mary really is remains a mystery. While there are many versions of this story, most accounts point to a woman named Mary Worth, who was horribly disfigured in a car crash. Some people still tell of 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.

It runs $6.75 and is available all week long, but is most prevalent during the bar's popular weekend brunch, as well as during the surprisingly popular late-night porn screening/breakfast on Saturday ("Smut and Eggs"!).
