The Candy Man
The story is that if you look at a mirror in your bathroom with the lights turned of and repeat “Candy Man” five times you see a red glow shaped like a pair of eyes. When you see it, turn the lights on immediately and run to the brightest spot in your house or he will come to kill you.

ive done the candy man game saide it about 5 times and nothing happens
This story is taken from the film, “The Candy Man” I remember when, I watched it when it came out, the first thing me and me mates done was do the mirror thing hahahahaha buzzards. Its not a myth, its a film
Maybe the movie was based on the myth.
lol he looks like jonny depp
the film is based on the candy man myth. when i was younger i was told this story around a camp fire. so when we got back to the cabin we tried it. we didnt see glowing eyes but we heard a very loud bang coming from behind the mirror
LOL it’s a film suckers
Maybe the story came first.
What if the brightest part of the house is your restroom ??!!!
Well then your screwed.
Because Chuck Norris said you were.
Go to the second brightest room in your house.
the myth is about 30 years older than the movie. my dad heard it in school when he was a kid. when he got home my old man tried it, however he didn’t get out of the washroom in time. he was cut on his back and the back of his neck multiple times before he got to his father’s shotgun and turned around and opened fire. the basement tenant, who was already on his way upstairs to tell him to keep it down came running at the gunshots. he turned my father away from the gory mess he had made and called the police, and being an army medic, started to patch him up as best he could. when the police got there they found this: a body with it’s head and part of it’s upper torso blown off surrounded by dead bees. when they checked the washroom they found the the mirror had been blown OUTWARDS! while my dad was being asked what happened, one of the officers started to yell. you see, the body body stood up and vanished into thin air. he still bares the scars on his body to this day. when he saw me reading a review of the movie, he grew pale and ran to the washroom to puke. when i asked him what that was about, he finally told me-after years of asking-how he got his scars.
That sounds amazing, you’re old man got a head shot. But u think the candy man sould’ve have died?
In order to die, one must be alive.
i would not like tosay candyman 5 times
@Hannah ferreday
Agree.
i did it and i died
epicness dude just plan epicness
how did u type that then?
It was different at my school, what you needed to do was this:
1. Say Candy Man 5 times while looking at a mirror
2. spin around on the spot for a minute
3. run outside and scream
4. go back to the mirror
5. blink 5 times fast
6. you should ow see a green lollypop
7. if you touch it The Candy Man Will get you
if you say no you have 10 seconds to get as far away from the mirror or you will never see the light of day again
7. if you escaped wait 10 minutes and go back and check the mirror
9. there should now be a bit of red writing on the mirror
“Seeya next time”
Of course it was a load of bull but still many of my friends would cry halfway through it.
I guess the candyman doesn’t like to share his lollipops with anyone
@ ThePirateKing- sure sounds scary, but you missed out number 8…. -.-
wooo! i watched the movie when i was seven because my older brother made me and after the movie my mom in him went in the bathroom and tried it and my mom started screaming but they came out laughing…
thats soo messed up to do to a seven year old lol.
I really don’t know which side to take. Is it just based on the film? Is the film based on the legend? I really don’t know. I’m not into things like that. I’m into Japanese legends and stuff like that. If u wanna see a film that should be true check out The Grudge or if u wanna watch the original Japanese version, check out Ju-on. They r both awesome movies. My name on here is based off the woman ghost in the movie. My real name is Yoko. (creepy cuz Yoko is a character in the american version killed by Kayako Saeki.) but anyway, I don’t give two honks about this one though. But if I did, I wouldn’t know what to think.
