And if it's the blood of a virgin?

If I remember correctly, Stephen King wrote a story about a laundry machine that killed people because a virgin cut herself and bled on it. She put a hex on the darned thing.

When I work with people on any mechanical job, I ask for credentials.

There was a lot more involved in the "laundry machine" story than someone bleeding on it, including belladonna and other steps, before the machine turned lethal.
