My second-hand experience with the Ouija board
It was only a few days after the Ouija board was brought out when the homeowner's noticed strange things were happening. It was inconspicuous at first. Became noticeable once they made themselves visible. Two children. Full-body apparitions. Playful. But annoying. Doors began to slam then quickly following were the cabinets. Lights left on. Cats running from room to room. It never stopped. The door was open and it was only a matter of time before the children were not the only ones to walk into our world. He followed too.
It took me some time to get down to writing this. The Ouija board is synonymous with evil. My second-hand experience is different than what my relatives went through. Kind of. You see, my brother and I were in the same house that night my family used the board. First off, I have some backstory to tell first.
My grandmother died when I was 6. Jump forward less than a decade later and my relatives still were grieving, including my mom. Two cousins, a great-aunt, and my mom decided that contacting my grandmother would bring some sort of closure. My mom had never used the board, but the other three were familiar. They claimed they spoke to my grandmother before. Or, at least who they believe was.
My mom agreed to sit down for their next session.
That night
I still remember that night. My great-aunt had a playroom in the back of her house for her nieces and nephews. My brother and I decided on Jingle All The Way playing for background noise while we drew or whatever you do when you're like 9 and 5.
All the adults were in the living and told us to not come out of the room unless it was an emergency. Turns out, being in a house for the first time alone is an emergency. I can recall that room being unsettling. Even at 9, I knew something was off. We didn't want to stay there for long. I remember creeping out of the room with my brother close behind and walking down the hall towards the living room.
All four sat on the floor around the coffee table. Their hands on the planchet. Candles lit the room, adding to the mystique of the atmosphere. I could hear my mother crying. She turned around with tears pouring from her eyes. The group broke up and had a million questions on why we left the room. It was obvious why we came to the house. My mom never outright told us then, but years later after enough questioning of our own, she explained the events.
After the session
From what I understand the house became haunted by two children that would make noise all day and night. My relatives claimed they had seen them in the corner of their eyes from time to time.
For the most part, they were harmless. Just annoying.
It was the tall man that had them terrified. 6 feet plus, slim, and solid black. He would appear in the corners of bedrooms. Once they got a good look at him, he would disappear.
They say that spirits from the other side attach themselves to those that don't close the session. I believe it.
My immediate family has been followed for the past 20 years since that night. My brother, mom, and me. Those experiences deserve another post. I believe because they never closed the session properly, is the reason I have been haunted for the past 2/3 of my life.

The hauntingly, accurate messages from the other side
Let's get real. I am about to tell you about some true events that I still don't understand regarding that night. Take what I'm about to say with a grain of salt, as you should with anyone else's story on the internet. I can only tell you what my mom told me. She has nothing gain from any of this. Hell, she doesn't know I'm writing this.
Whoever my family contacted that night had some future predictions for them that came true. My mom in particular.
This entity claimed to be my grandmother.
She told my mom that she would have a daughter, during the pregnancy there would be complications, but ultimately she will live. However, in the future problems will develop. Prediction one.
She then told my mom to visit the cemetery the next day and visit her gravesite. A red robin will be nearby. It will be my grandmother watching over my family from a tree.
What do you think my mom did?
She went to the cemetery and sure enough, there was a red robin in the tree. I just got chills typing that. This isn't the first time I have heard of something like this.
My girlfriend works with a girl that has ladybugs tattooed on her. They represent her father who passed. He told her in a dream the same thing. Visit my gravesite and I'll visit you in the form of ladybugs. The same thing happened. Girl visits gravesite, swarms of ladybugs are present.
Second prediction. A year after the session my mom was pregnant. But with a boy. Adam. Unfortunately, Adam was premature and did not make it. A couple of years later, my parents tried again and this time a girl. Four boys in a row then all of a sudden she has a girl?
There were complications with my sister. She is 15 now. I won't go into the details but my sister does have some health problems. Doctors have said that they caught them early and that with some preventive care, there's nothing to worry about. She'll grow up healthy.
I'm just a random person on the internet
I have nothing to gain from any of this other than some affiliate links later in the future. I'll be open and candid about that monetization of the blog.
What I'm also being honest about is this story. I have no idea what to make of it. If it didn't happen to me I wouldn't believe it myself.
Any personal stories of mine are from what I know I experienced. Read my shadow people post for more.
Pairs well with
Anything at this point. Whatever will help me forget and sleep. Something that will help me ignore the bumps in the night.
Has anything like this happened to you? Any predictions from the other side? Tell me about them. I want to know I am not the only one with a wild story like this. At the least, that will comfort me knowing I am not crazy.
