The Hooded Man Ritual

## General description

Similar to the The Lift Ritual, The Hooded Man Ritual allows the player (the one who plays the ritual) to access another dimension, which is called the Other World. In this ritual, the player will call an entity to drive him to the Other World.

## Requirements

- 1 corded telephone, if you use a cordless one, the ritual will not work.

- 2 black cords, each one must be approximately 50 centimeters or 1.6 feet long

- 1 watch or pocket clock

- 1 room to play the ritual

- 1 table

- 1 chair

## Preparing the room

1- Choose a room to play the ritual

2- Leave the room as dark and silent as possible

## Calling the Hooded Man

It is recommended to play at night, and if you are playing with friends, only 1 is required to follow the instructions below

1- Go in the room you had previously prepared

2- Sit down before the telephone and count to 13

3- With the phone on the on the cradle, dial the number 20496888

4- Tie one of the black cords to the telephone's handset

5- Use the cord to lift the handset and dial the number 25515823

6- Count to 13 and put the handset down, but do not put it on the cradle

7- Approach your face to the handset and say ''Hi, I need a cab''

8- Untie the first cord and replace it with the second one

## Going to the Other World

1- Go outside

2- If you see a black cab parked near your house with the lights on, open the door and get inside, if you are playing with friends, they should go too. If the door is locked, do not get in, it is probably a regular car. Trying to break into it will get you in trouble.

3- After you enter in the car, lock the doors and make sure to be in a comfortable position, you will fall asleep in approximately 70 seconds

4- If you check below the driver seat, you will find an iron hook and a dirty spoon.

5- After you wake up (if you are playing with friends, everybody will wake up at the same time), look at your watch, if your watch doesn't read 3:30 am, get out of the vehicle, go inside the room you used to call the cab and destroy the 2 cords with fire

6- If your watch reads 3:30, you will fall asleep again in approximately 70 seconds

7- You will wake up again, but this time, the car will be moving and you will see a hooded man on the driver seat, driving the cab, in a dark place

8- If you want to go back, say to the driver ''I have reached my destination''

9- You will wake up in your starting location, in front of the telephone you used to call the cab

10- Dial the number 200082 in the telephone and say ''Thank you for the ride''

11- Destroy the second cord with fire

## The Hooded Man

The drivers, also called Hooded Men, are interdimensional agents who wear black vests with hoods. Some people believe that looking at their face leads the player to death, but there is no evidence for this.

## Additional information

* If you try to physically attack driver, he will put you in the trunk of the cab, it is not known what happens next
* If you talk to the driver, he will not answer
* It is not known what happens if someone looks at the driver's face
* Don't worry about sleeping in the cab, you can lock the doors and whoever tries cause any damage to the cab will die in a very painful way
* If the player doesn't thank the driver for the ride, he will come back
