On November 11, 2009 I received an e-mail from Taylor H. about an interesting ouija board experience:


My mother had recently just sold our home a few months ago, as what seemed to be paranormal activity become too much to handle. Ever since I was a little girl, I have been obsessed with witchcraft novels, ouija boards, and things like that. After I began to use my Ouija board almost on a regular basis, I noticed things in my home were no longer the same...It all started off with little things like our stereo turning on randomly all hours of the day and night, to even watching the volume dial turn on its own. Then TV remotes would go missing (what else is new) and we'd end up finding them in the top shelves of our linen closet months later, even after we had gone out a bought another. Then it progressed over the years. I had been thrown down the stairs, hot water taps turned on by themseleves, plates where thrown at myself and my sister, curtains were ripped down, hardware and all were torn from the walls, my mother would believe to see me walk past her room repeatedly and come to my room to find that I had been fast asleep, to hearing our names being whispered. Of course, these occurances happened on many occasions along with too many to even rememeber at the moment.

The most disturbing occurance had to have been the time when we had come home and checked our messages. If you have seen the movie "White Noise" you will know what I'm talking about. The message was all white noise with disturbing deep demonic voices in the background. All we could make from the tape was "Fuck you," "Get you," "Sweet jesus," and "Bastards." It sounded as though it were a bunch of different voices mingling together and talking over one another. I don't know if this could have been becuase it was an older home, or because I had opened up another realm into our home. We had a psychic come to our home who had helped a city police station help find missing people. She had come to read my mother's tarot cards, but the moment she walked in the door she was completly overwhelmed. She could not stay in our home and was not able to carry on with her job as she claimed to have felt many evil spirits in our home. They were using it as a gateway to contact and harm the living world. She then suggested to have a priest come and bless the home. Thankfully we sold that home...Will update you if anything happens in the next one.

A couple quick stories of my ouija board experiences were...

1) I contacted a "little boy" named John. He said he had died in a trunk while playing hide and seek. He asked if I wanted to play. I asked "How will I know how to find you?" He said "cold." After a little more conversation he became aggitated with me and said "play fuck," so I went around to each closet in my home. When I opened the closet in my room, I felt a wave of cold air. Could have been my imagination, maybe not...

2) I had been playing by myself in my room, candles lit and all, and it took me a veeeerrry long time to contact anyone as I was playing alone. I had finally contacted someone. Paul, the spirit, swore at me constantly, and I asked it to leave. When I asked for another person, it presented itself as a young girl named Suzie and we began to converse. It started to confuse me and play mind games. I then asked, "Is this really Suzie?" It said "fuck no," and I asked who it was. The board called me a "bitch". Just then my door slammed shut, and that was enough for me.

I believe Ouija boards can be fun, but need to be used with caution. They are not toys...Happy hunting =)
