  1. she died of Cancer


  2. She probably had a cancerous tumor either on her pituitary glad, ovaries or in her uterus.

    Without real medical science at the time there is no way to be sure. The historical record leads people to think it was cancer.

  3. Mary I of England, the first queen to rule England in her own right was known as 'Bloody Mary' for her persecution of Protestants in a vain attempt to restore Catholicism in England. During her reign, Mary suffered two phantom pregnancies. It has been speculated that these could simply be a result of the pressure to produce an heir, though the physical symptoms (including lactation and the later loss of her eyesight) reported by Mary's attendants may be indicative of a hormonal disorder such as a pituitary tumour. Mary's always-frail health finally failed her and she died in 1558. Some attribute her death to influenza, some to stomach cancer (misinterpreted by Mary as pregnancy).

  4. Her head was chopped off.  

    Or she drank to much Bloody Mary's at the pub.

  5. She died a natural death.

    She may have had cancer of the uterus.

  6. She was a very sad queen, poor Mary.   She had endured miserable years when her mother, Catherine of Aragon, was banished from her father's court, and she had suffered from ill health all her life.  Much of her frailty has been attributed to stress and sadness.  Here's a description of her death:

    "In March of 1558 Mary made her will but did not name Elizabeth as her heir...Mary now admitted that she was mistaken in her second pregnancy. She fell into depression and would not leave her room. All the hopes of her life were unfulfilled and it seemed the child of the woman who had so injured her mother was to succeed her. She suffered a fever through the summer but insisted on returning to London from the country.  On November 6 the Counselors visited Mary in her bed chamber and urged her to name Elizabeth as heir. She did give in with the hopes that Elizabeth would continue to uphold the Catholic religion.

    By November 14, Mary was near the end. She was fading in and out of consciousness and awoke to find her ladies weeping. She told them not to fret because she had dreams of many little children, like angels, play before her, singing pleasing notes, giving her comfort. When she was conscious she spent much time crying and when asked if it was because her husband was away she answered that was one reason but most of all that "when I am dead, you will find Calais lying in my heart." On November 16, the will was read aloud in Mary's bed chamber. By dawn the next morning Mary knew her time had come and ordered mass celebrated in her room. At the end of the service her ladies thought she had fallen asleep but she had died peacefully. The betrothal ring was removed from her finger and carried to Hatfield.

    Mary was 42 years old. She was buried in Westminster Abbey in a grave that lay unadorned throughout Elizabeth's reign. Elizabeth was interred in the same grave and a lavish monument built for her. On the side of the monument it states that the two sisters are buried together."

    She had married a man, Philip of Spain (and a very unpopular choice in her country) who did not love her, although she said that she had half fallen in love with his portrait before she even saw the king.  She thought she was pregnant twice, when she showed all the signs, but had to suffer the humiliation of no child after nine months had been and gone.  It's thought she died of cancer of the uterus or ovaries, but some other sources say influenza.

  7. She though she was pregnant, but she really had cancer.

  8. she looked into a mirror in a dark room said her own name three times, came out and died.

    Bloody Mary was the name diven to Mary Tudor, queen of England. She was the daughter of Henry the 8th and Catherine of Aragon and despite her father being the first Protestant king,she herself was a devout Catholic. She got the name Bloody Mary because of her persecution of protestants during her reign< over 300 were put to death on her orders. The folklore character you are probably referring to is a myth, supposed to appear if you stand in front of a mirror at midnight and call her name 3 times, she is sometimes known as Mary Worth.
