Ouija Board Stories

[Brendan]

I found this message board thread where this person has posted his most strange Ouija board discussions. These things could be elaborate and imaginative stories, but if not they sure do raise a lot of questions.

Also, any other Ouija board seems to be dead, so post some of your stories if you have some.

I'm really interested in it. I would like to try it, I know it's supposed to be extremely dangerous but I have a strong urge to give it a go.

I just finished reading them Brendan - really weird! What kind of thing are you hoping to contact if you use a ouija board?

[Mary]

Interesting stuff, Brendan. I admire the way those two researchers did chakra exercises and consecrated their work as energy work, rather than going for a "spooky Ouija" experience. I like the way they had someone there to record.

Interesting responses when they asked about God and the soul. I would say these guys were channeling some very positive beings who know a lot.

Ok, I just read this thread and I simply ~have~ to share my one Ouija board story with you guys. First though, I have to point out that my country, like all Latin American catholic countries, is very religious, and our culture and indiosincracy is very steeped in the magical and the spiritual. It's actually quite funny, as I know people who are very devout of the Virgin Mary and also have statues of Maria Lionza (a famous indigenous queen who has become something of a Santeria icon) sitting right next to it--but I digress. My point is, it is something of a mandatory rite of passage to go through what I call the 'Ouija board' phase. I really don't know why, but it's incredibly common for girls (and boys too, to some degree) to experiment with it during their teenage years. Everybody in this country, in one way or another, has had some sort of Ouija-related experience, or know someone who has. The common consensus, of course, is that Ouija boards are more often than not a disaster waiting to happen; that they are conducts through which evil or dark energies access our reality with awful consequences. And they still play it! LOL But anyways, I'm telling you guys this story because to this very day I don't have a reasonable explanation to what happened to my friends and I, and I believe myself to be a pragmatic. So maybe you guys can shed some light into the matter?

Ok. This happened when I was 16 years old. A few friends and I were studying at my best friend's house, and well, after a couple of hours of Trigonometry we'd simply had enough and started talking about weird stuff, like ghosts and whatnot. One of our friends, Vanessa was her name, told us about how she always felt like there was someone beside her all the time; that she couldn't see anything, but that whenever she was alone, she could feel this prescence with her, neither good nor bad, just... there. Well, we were theorizing about what that might mean when all of the sudden my best friend, the owner of the house, goes, 'Oh! My mom has a Ouija board. Let's play and see if we can contact your ghost!' Of course, there were all the regular 'Oh, no, no way!' and 'You're crazy' comments, but after some persuasion we all agreed to do it --and I admit I was the other one saying we should do it, for curiosity's sake and all that. Anyways. Kelves goes to get the Ouija board and brings it to the study where we were all waiting anxiously, staring at eachother in our juvenile anxiety/excitement.

Another thing I have to point out, Kelves is an animal lover, and by that time had two gorgeous Cocker Spaniels, a couple, who had been with their family for ages. The dogs were very old; in fact, Leyka, the female, was actually nearly blind, but they were the babies of the family. Very sweet dogs. People say that Spaniels are very temperamental and whatnot, and I don't know what was with these dogs but they loved being around people, always jumping on your lap so you would play with them, shaking their tales for some attention. Ok, the thing is, she comes into the room with the board, the dogs trailing behind her. My first thought when I saw the board was, 'Oh my God. This thing is made by the Parker Brothers.' I just found it so retarded: so many people claiming it's a door to hell, and here they are mass producing it like Monopoly! But anyways. We didn't know what to do, so obviously we just went and did like in the movies: my friends sat in a circle, Kelves and I in the middle with the Ouija board in our knees. One of my friends couldn't stop laughing, nerves, of course, and it was catching so it took a few moments for all of us to actually get in the mindset for 'contacting the beyond'.

So. Kelves starts with the usual words, 'We want to communicate with whatever light spirit that wishes to talk to us' and whatnot. We tried to make that perfectly clear: light, good, no poltergeist or mischievous ones. Our hands were on the plastic thingy, we were looking at eachother and I could tell we were both thinking, 'if you start moving this thing to scare me I will kill you!'. But anyways, nothing happened for a long while. Both of us would ask the mandatory, 'Are you here?' or 'Please, talk to us'. Nothing. We were about to give up when all of the sudden I feel... something: the plastic oracle, pointer, whatever had moved almost imperceptibly to the left. I immediately look at Kelves and I could tell she had felt it too. So, we just started in earnest with our pleas for communication. And 'lo and behold, the thing started to move very fast in a sort of infinite symbol pattern on the board!

My friends thought we were making it up. I just looked at Kelves with what most probably was a 'wtf???' look on my face, and I could tell she was getting scared, the thing was almost hard to keep up with or control. One thing everybody says and we had very clear in our minds was that you cannot release the pointer or the spirit or whatever is set loose... just another one of the Ouija myths here. So we were struggling to keep up with this thing, the sensation was... I honestly cannot describe it. My hands were not moving it, but it was as if they were? Does that make any sense? Anyways. I start asking who it was and if there was something it wished to tell us: then it started spelling the word 'ROSA ROSA ROSA ROSA ROSA' which is, obviously enough, 'Rose' in english. Well, my friend Vanessa, which I had told you about, just screams! At this point, my other friends were getting very anxious and were telling us to cut the crap and just stop playing. But I --figures-- wanted to know more, so I asked for some reason, 'do you know anybody here?' and then it just started spelling 'GAS GAS GAS' (no translation needed, I hope) and 'DOS DOS DOS' (two, two, two). I thought, well, we're getting somewhere here when all of the sudden, Leyka and Rico, wich until then had been just laying there like the nice little dogs they were started to, simply putting it, GO CRAZY! They started barking and growling at some point in the corner of the room, like... I had never seen those dogs bark like that let alone growl, their teeth snapping as in about to attack! That's when both Kelves and I went... Holy f°°°! or rather its equivalent in Spanish. My friends were screaming like idiots, one of them had just got up and left the room screaming, the other three were just sitting there all grouped up together with their faces white as a sheet. By then Kelves was trying to get the dogs under control, telling them to calm down and trying to get their attention, and I alone was trying to control the thing who was just moving like crazy. But then I just thought, 'God, whatever or whoever you are, I beg your forgiveness for disturbing you, please, leave in peace, we didnt mean any harm.' And then the thing just stopped, and just like that the dogs barked for a little more and then stopped too, and came to lick Kelves in the face and be alll... normal.

What happened next, well, to tell you the truth, I just started laughing. I just couldn't believe what had just happened. Kelves just came and took the board and pretty much shoved it in its box and hid it underneath the desk. I can't explain the feeling we all felt... It was surreal. But then Vanessa started to cry. And then became hysterical. The other friend who had left yelled at us from the other side of the door 'Are you guys all alive?' and then comes in, and by then we were all trying to get Vanessa to speak to us. I mean, ok, it had been crazy and hell, I probably wasn't going to experiment with a Ouija board EVER again in my life, and we all had had a good scare, but the way Vanessa was acting was just... too much. We made her some chamomille tea, and finally when the six of us were sitting in the kitchen she told us something that pretty much left us petrified. She said that before her mom married her dad, she had had a boyfriend when she was very young, 17 or 18 she said. She had gotten pregnant, and the guy at first had said they would get married and all, then just disappeared to Italy, which is where his family was from, and never heard from him again. Her mom didn't took it well and one day she tried to kill herself --using the kitchen oven. Gratefully Vanessa's grandmother came in and found her. But she lost the baby. Who happened to be a girl, and whom she was thinking about calling Rosa, which is her grandmother's sister's name. We didnt know what the 'two' meant, but by then the coincidences were enought to have us all not being able to sleep for a few weeks.

Was Rosa the presence Vanessa had told us about in the beginning? Was it all just a projection of our minds? I have no idea. All I know is that since then I have never touched a Ouija board, and well, I actually don't mind that one single bit. Me and Kelves sometimes talk about that incident, and can only shrugg, really. As for Vanessa, she left for the US with her family after the 2003 mass firing of PDVSA workers here, and well, we still keep in touch, but she never talked about that afternoon again. So, this is my crazy Ouija board story. A bit long, I know, but, hope you guys liked it.

Wow!!! Amazing story Etherea. Makes me want to have a go at the ouija myself - and it makes me NOT want to have a go, if you know what I mean!

[Brendan]

Yeah, great story Etherea! Very creepy!

Lucy, I'm not sure what I want to contact, I just want to see for myself if it works or not. Perhaps try and contact something like in the thread in my post.

My friend refuses to do anything with me because she had a bad experience and won't talk about it.

Does anyone else have stories?

[Lucy]

I've not got any stories, but one thing I have wondered about - why is it that these 'beings' have learned to read/write/spell? How is it they know how to put the letter sounds in the right order etc? There must be plenty of illiterate entities out there, and yet they turn up and easily communicate as though they've had a top rate education...?

[Brendan]

Lucy, what I imagine is that because they're using you to channel, your brain sorts out the spelling? because you're touching the oracle and channeling through to the board, whatever thoughts get sent to you, spells it all out in your own language. *shrug*

[Lucy]

Hmmm... could be. I guess that's why you actually need to be touching the oracle. I wonder if it means that if you're a bad speller, the stuff which is spelled out on the board is mispelled too?

[Kelli]

I've used the Ouija Board many times in my life. I love it. I've never had any negative issues with it.
I have so many stories I don't know where I would begin.

Sometimes me and my cousin have contacted a so called Time traveller, and he is so intelligent. His name is Gunthor but he told us to just call him Thor. He has one other that comes through with him sometimes, Ian(eye-an). We made sure to ask them how to pronounce it right.
For the first couple months they claimed to be "Time Travelers". As we would make fun of them and laugh about them telling us that they are time travelers, they told us they are beings in the future or something like that. They told us, "You learn so much when you sleep". Among so many other weird things and they told us stories about the future and where they live and "Realm wars". I cant remember where they said they live and all the details, I have to find where I wrote it all down at.
They even made up riddles for us to solve! Really intricate ones! They are really fun and nice beings. I love talking to them on the board.
When I find all the information I wrote of our talks with Thor and Ian I'll post them.

I've also talked to a few indian spirits that have passed on my land, one named Wendeke Minti, who told me to "Live Wise".

I love the board. Although, once my cousin drew a pentacle on the back of one of my glow in the dark boards and I put it away where I always put it and it disapeared and I havnt seen it sinse.
I use a beautiful home made board now.

[Brendan]

That's wonderful, Kelli!

Hearing stories like yours just make me want to try it out even more! I'd love to hear what you wrote down about Thor and Ian.

[Kelli]

Yes, they are amazing. We truly believe they are who they say they are.
Brendan, don't be afraid to use it. Stay positive.

I have used one once, I was really young though, and the whole time I was so scared.
The story behind it is the reason I was so scared.
Behind my house is another house, where the people living there are really close family friends. They are a family of four, parents, a son and a daughter. The daughter got this doll and it scared the hell out of me. Just the thought of that thing made me afraid to climb the fence and go to visit. Anyway, the son, who is older then the daughter (she is the same age as me, he is two years older), who is also the reason I'm so interested in the supernatural etc. was also scared to death of it.
So he suggested we try use an Ouija Board. I looked up to him so to me, it was a great idea. His sister and my older bro agreed it was a cool idea so we got the board out.
Nothing came of it, but it still scared the hell of me.
Not really a great story but I figured I'd share it since even though I was young at the time, I still get scared remembering it. haha.
They have since got rid of the doll, but I guess it's possible they got it back. Even though they live over the fence I haven't spoken to them in years

[Lucy]

Was it an old doll or something? What was scary about it?

I have no idea WHY it was scary, it just creeped me out. I'm not sure if it was old, I really don't know, it sure looked old but really I have no idea. It wasn't a small doll, it was fairly large (this is going by memory, I saw it only a few times, was too scared to see it much).
When they got it, they got it with a few other. The others were the same size, and looked fairly similar but weren't creepy... Overall I think there was 4 dolls... Maybe more... Man... my memory is screwed...

[Kelli]

Try speaking to them.

I used to love my dolls until I watched Barbarella, after that I never saw my Dolly Dimple doll in the same light again.
