Myself and two friends decided to play an Ouija board. The first time we played with it it claimed to be my great great aunt (whom I never met but was told she supposedly killed 3 out of her 4 husbands) then after I got a bad feeling and stopped playing, it claimed to be my friend's dad.
After she had been talking to it for hours and finally tricked it into answering a question wrong it went crazy, cussing all of us. We put the board away but then smelled something burning. Could only smell it in the room we played with the board in. We threw the board out and the smell went away. But whatever it was didn't leave me alone for years.
It would go away, sometimes for months, but eventually come back. I think it's gone now. After moving 3 times and a lot of prayer and having missionaries bless my home and contacting a demonologist and following their tips on ridding my home of it. It got to where my husband and I were seeing it and something was scaring my son by whispering his name in his ear. He's still terrified to go into the back bedrooms alone. I actually made my sons sleep together with a Bible between them.
One night I woke up and saw what looked like an extremely small man in very old army clothes. It didn't look like a midget, (I'm sorry if that offends anyone. I just don't know how else to explain it) looked like a very normal man but around 4 feet tall and grey. He just looked at me and after I blinked he was gone. I don't know where he fits in all of this, but for some reason he didn't scare me. The other thing though, that's another story.
I'm not sure my husband really believed me until he actually saw it. He was absolutely terrified. We were in bed and I had been hearing it for a while now. I was so paranoid that it would do something that I made my husband sleep in the bedroom with our kids and I would sleep in the living room so one of us were on each end of the house. Well I was used to seeing it walk up and down the hallway. I would catch glimpses and hear the footsteps. It was so incredibly scary.
One night my husband came into the living room shaking. He asked if I was just in the bathroom. I told him I hadn't been but I knew why he was asking because I had seen it too. It was very big. From the floor to the ceiling and as wide as the hallway. It would just walk up and down the hallway all night.
One day I woke up and my house felt less tense. I had reached out to the demonologist and followed their steps two days before. I had been in a horrible depression and my oldest son was sick a lot and had to go to monthly appts at Children's hospital and a lot of local drs appointments and some visits to the emergency room and he was on a bunch of meds. But that day it seemed like everyone was happy.
Later that night my husband and I were up really late watching tv. Something knocked on the door. I yelled at my husband when he went to get up to answer the door and told him nothing was there and to sit back down. I had a horrible feeling and knew it was that thing. A couple minutes later we heard something hit my door. We both went to the windows, that gives you a clear view of our entire porch, and sure enough nothing was there. Only a broom that was on one side of the porch when we came in for the night that was now on the floor in front of the door. The knocking happened for three nights. I think it was trying to get us to let it back in.
Because of everything we went through I strongly urge people to think twice before "playing" with a board. It's not a game. What three teenage girls thought was a creepy game turned out to haunt me for eight years. I'll always be paranoid now. Always wondering if I have done something to invite it back and wondering what it'll do next. Once you have some huge black shadow looking thing at least 7 feet tall and 3 feet wide walking around your house at night and it's messing with your family, it's tough to relax afterwards.
Hopefully this all makes sense because I'm trying to type and take care of the kids at the same time. Will answer any questions!
The most important question first. How are you and your family now faring? Has your son recovered from his bouts of sickness?
I can't say that I can understand anyone admonishing you for your comments and actions to resolve a nasty situation, in the protection of you and your family. In fact, I believe that there are some basic lessons to be learned from your account.
Although marketed in the 60's as a board game, the Ouija Board is not a plaything to pass a few hours with friends having fun. I'm sure there are quite a few people out there that have participated in a session. Some have been lucky (as myself) and some have been extremely unlucky.
Lastly, I now know that there is something worse than a "back seat driver" and that's a "front seat driver" with long legs!
Take care,
