Queen Mary I (1516-1558) wanted to make Roman Catholicism the religion of England and many who opposed her were executed for heresy. The contemporary historian John Foxe (1517-1587) adopted the term because he was a Protestant and Mary had killed nearly 300 Protestants during her 4-year reign.
However, this name grew out of the Protestant Propaganda which followed her reign and some have argued that the name is unfair, considering the numbers of people put to death by her contemporary monarchs for the same crime. (Spain, and even Scotland, had more people killed than in England under Mary.)
Queen Mary I of England, daughter of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, was called "Bloody Mary" by her opponents.
She re-introduced Roman Catholicism to England and almost 300 "heretics" were executed for failing to follow Roman Catholicism during her reign.

Yes. She deserved the title bloody Mary because she killed so many people just because they refused to worship the catholic way.
Every ones different! U believe how u want to believe!
Mary deserved this name as she killed 284 people in 5 years for not believing in her religion. Elizabeth only killed 4 in 64 years.
