The Midnight Man
This game was used as a ritual to summon The Midnight Man to punish rule breakers in Pagan religions long ago. WARNING!: Play this game at your own risk of torture and death.
You’ll need the following supplies to play: paper, pencil, needle, candle, a box of matches, a door and salt. - Turn off all the lights.
- Light a candle
- Write your name on the paper, first, middle, and last
- Prick your finger with the needle and add a drop of blood on the paper, allow it to soak in
- Place the paper with your name on the floor in front of the door.
- Knock on the door 22 times with the ticking of the clock, the 22nd knock MUST occur at 12am.
- Open your door, blow out the candle, and close it. You have now summoned the "Midnight Man".
- Immediately relight your candle
This is when the game begins. Your goal is to avoid the midnight man at all costs. You may move through the house to avoid him. You can tell if he is near; your candle will go out, it will get chilly, you’ll hear a low whisper, and he will appear in front of you. You must relight the candle within 10 seconds. If not, throw down a circle of salt around yourself and stay inside the circle from 12:01am to 3:33am.
If you are still alive at 3:33am, you’ve won. If not, you’ll be tortured, sometimes to death, until 3:33am. Come back and let us know if you’ve won the game.

Biggest load of crap ever,tried it nothing happen! lol! and my house is huge! such a fake!
Pffff i agree completely.
Its scary!!!!
:O
i am going to try this tonight!
i thought it said to knock at the same pace as a clock ticking. the guy in the vid didnt unless he injected his clock with crack or something.
i know right
Did you honestly think it would work?
“i thought it said to knock at the same pace as a clock ticking. the guy in the vid didnt unless he injected his clock with crack or something.”
Actually, it said to knock in time with the ticking. Y’know how clocks make a tiny ticking sound for each second? That’s what it meant. One knock for each second the clock ticks. You start knocking at 11:59:38 (38 seconds through 11:59) so that the last knock occurs at exactly 12.
THIS REALLY IS WEIRD, MY FRIEND DID SOMETHING SIMILAR TO THIS AND SHE HAS SCARS TO PROVE THEM , SHE WAS SLIT 20 TIMES IN HER ARMS, ONE OF HER LEGS BROKEN AND SEVERE HEAD TRAUMA, THIS ISNT IT, IS IT?
I survived. It was dreadful i watched as my friend was murdered screaming when she died ; that scream still haunts me,before my eyes it was like a horror film in life. i have mental images every night but i survived. (this is a load of rubbish!!!)
sarcastic?
People on the video you didn’t do it right. You knocked way too fast you have to knock in time with the clock starting at 11:59 38 seconds.
haha FAKEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha lol sooo fake
I tried this and it worked but the circle of salt only helps untill 2:23 so when the salt is useles you throw salt at the man and it will burn his skin thats how I survived. I recomend do NOT try this unless you are VERY prepared with lots of salt and know some VERY GOOD
places to hide in your house.
i just knocked 22 times and nothing. these urban legends are a load of sh…..
Well,Chris,I guess you would be happy if the legend was real,you’d enjoy being tortured to death,or what?The fact is that we’re all so excited when we wanna try these kinds of urban legends,because even if we may think they’re real,there’s a part of our brain,wich analisys the situation,telling you if it’s fake or not.In this case,you may think it’s real,but your brain will tell ou it’f fake.Then think about the fact,that actually The MidNight Man would pop out,what would you do?Follow the steps depicted on this topic,no,you would FREEZE.
wow.. just wow well i tried this andnthissounds like a freakin kid game! “you may go around ur house to help” qtf??
I won! OMG It was so scary , but I won! I hid under my bed and locked the door and I stayed there the whole time! VICTORY!!!! XD
Oh I’m so sorry to hear that buddy =(
I WON!
Can we acctually believe all the people that said they suffered torture at the hands of the midnight man? Are you all just making it up? Where is the proof? People said that they died, yet they posted their comments.
Guys
I have no idea why you guys would love to mess with dark magic, but it is not a joke. This stuff is real and if you try and toy with it, you or others you care about could get hurt.
AGREEED
Im going to try it this summer. I have heard it is scary as hell. Also, you will not die, if the midnight man gets you after 10 seconds and you dont have salt around you, all that will happen is that you will have hallucinations of your greatest fears until 3:33.
I’m not sure why so many keep saying to knock at 11:59:38. That would mean you would be knocking 23 times, not 22, if you were to place your last knock at midnight. Count it out for yourself if you like.
it is true i tried it
OMG this is real. I tried it on Friday with my brother and his friends. One of them went missing and I was even stabbed in the butt. It was hella scary.
PUSSIES
GET A BLOODY GRIP!!!
tried this and the funniest thing is that i tripped over something and my candle went out, turned on the light scared out of my brains and realized shortly after that that my dog was lying on the floor where i tripped,
total failure
so not true tho
Cant you run out of the house?
thats a good point
No, you can’t. You have to stay in the house.
FAAAKE
This is true i have done it and shall again on this friday with a friend. You must do it exactly right or it will not work
This is NOT a joke guys this stuff is serious
I tried it before, it didnt work.
I won
I find this whole “you have to knock in time to the clock” thing complete nonsense, not to mention having to do it at exactly midnight. Because, honestly, how many ‘pagan religions long ago’ used clocks? Plus how many clocks do you know of that run on perfect time? Even cell phones give different times on different servers. Not to say I don’t believe that there’s a version of this game that could be legit but I don’t think it’s as complicated in the timing aspect, and I don’t think people die from it.. Or at least I hope not. Not that I’m ever going to be dumb enough to see for myself. :/
