The Charlotte Network is a paranormal game that involves summoning the spirit of a girl named Charlotte, who died in the 1400s after her mother was murdered and burned at the stake for being considered a witch. Charlotte's spirit is said to be trapped in a mirror, and the game requires two participants to sit in front of a mirror in a dark room, with a toy offering, and say "We want to play Charlotte's Network" to summon her. If successful, Charlotte will appear in the mirror, and the players can ask her questions. However, if she becomes angry or uncomfortable with the questions, she may become aggressive or disappear. Two American friends, Rock and Matthew, tried the game in 2017 and reported a terrifying but also fascinating experience, where Charlotte appeared and answered their questions before eventually disappearing. The game is said to be very dangerous, and players are warned not to look directly at Charlotte or shine their flashlights on her, as this may have severe consequences.
