>playing hide and seek alone

So that's what happens to those missing kids.

>For those who don't know, the gist of the Midnight Man game is that you write your name on a piece of paper, put some drops of your blood on it, light a big candle and then put them both in front of your (wooden) door.
>As the time nears midnight, you knock on your own front door, 22 times. The 22nd knock has to be at the stroke of midnight, then you blow the candle out and relight it.
>Doing this is said to invite the Midnight Man into your home, where you must walk around in complete darkness with the candle as your source of light. If the candle goes out, it means he's near, and you have to light your candle within ten seconds OR make a circle around yourself in salt and stay inside of it. Other things that can happen are the room can go cold, you could hear a whisper, or even see a humanoid figure as you're walking around.
>This continues until 3:33am, whereupon if you've done everything correctly, you have won the game. If you lose, there are threats of insanity or even death.
>There is no way to end the game prematurely. If summoned the midnight man stays in your home until 3:33AM and you must do everything in your power to avoid being killed by him.

This website happens to have a lot of these kinds of games.

Most of these games are demon summoning occult magick disguised as childish fun.
Daruma is an ancient Sumerian demon and Midnight Man is basically summoning a demon with blood magick.

I don’t believe that demons can truly ever be exorcised. Once you invite one into your home it’s pretty much stuck to you for life.

Demons are not real and the only danger from these games is hurting yourself while doing their dumbass rituals.

Daruma is not Sumerian, it's a japanese doll based on the Bodhidharma

The best part about this game is that there is literally no benefit to winning except bragging rights for something no one will believe you about anyway.

but who will scare the crows away?
