I remember being told this, around a campfire on a beach with friends, telling ghost stories, years back. A highly animated guy holding a torch told this one in a way to mostly frighten his girlfriend, He did a good job. it was a scary story when told well.

Yeh I know the scary part . When they say bang bang drip drip , it was the head banging and the blood dripping

And told it well you did, @Pink lion!

I remember hearing a female friend a few years back tell her very young children, that if they told a lie their tongues would turn black.

She said laughing all I have to do now is say OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND LET ME SEE YOUR TONGUE and if they wouldn't she knew...

It seems like a good trick.

Thank you for this too --- I'll be telling my niece this one when she's a bit older
