The story I am writing happened to me between the ages of 11-14.I can tell you this will most likely have to be broken down in to several stories. This is the worst of my paranormal experiences, so enjoy.

As a kid I was always the weird girl that nobody wanted to play with, so upon my fifth grade graduation my mother moved us to a nice neighborhood in hopes that I would make friends. I didn't make any friends until the summer.

There was a corner store that was a 5 minute walk from my house that I use to go and get Dr. Pepper and boiled peanuts from all the time. I was walking to the store one day and there was a girl outside, she stopped me and wanted to play 50 questions with me. At that point in time I wasn't as outgoing as I am now. So I answered her questions, and asked her if she wanted to walk with me. She went in to ask her mom and we left. When we got back she invited me in and asked me if I wanted to play a game. We went in and I called my mom to tell her where I was. Ruth went to her room to get the game and I was thinking it would be life or monopoly. She came out with a Ouija board. I asked her what that was, it didn't look like much fun to me. She explained to me how it worked and we tried it out. Little did I know this was the first in a series of events that would rock my little world.

Ruth and I spent the majority of our summer vacation asking silly questions about middle school and people that we would meet. One particular question that I asked was "will I make any new friends, and can you give me any names?" It gave me the name of a boy Bob Thomas. At first I didn't believe it and eventually I forgot about it. School finally came back around and about a month in to school a student transferred into some of my classes, he was introduced as Bob Thomas. I was in shock to say the least. After school I told Ruth what happened and she was at a loss, once again we consulted the board. As the school year went on she got bored with playing with the board, and gave it to me.

I started to play alone and sometimes with other people like my sister. It became an addiction for me, at the time it calmed my thin nerves. This time of my life was very turbulent, and whatever was talking to me fed off my sadness and anger. As the year went on and summer came back I only got worse, I would ask it to give me signs of its presence, and it would knock or a light would flicker. Eventually I was so deep into it

I would ask it when someone was coming or if I should do this or not. I wish I would have said no to playing this stupid thing. Sometimes I wonder if I may have been possessed by it. I can't say why I was so addicted to it but my sister finally got rid of it.

Thank you for reading my story, and never play with the Ouija board it is dangerous.

I will have more for you soon.

I am a christian, and my parents totaly forbid Ouiji boards. What do they look like? All I know is that you somehow contact spirits, and the spirits can posses you. I am confused. Can someone explian this to me?

I personally don't think that Ouija boards are dangerous at all. It all depends on how you're using them. If you don't know what you are doing, then yes, it can get dangerous.

There are plenty of different ways of protecting yourself from the negative spirits. Although, none of them are proven, but seem to work.

Some simple ways of protecting yourself while using the Ouija board are as follows:

1. Burn only white candles. Dark colors bring negative energy.

2. Surround yourself with a circle of sea salt.

3. Say a protecting prayer before beginning.
E.g. "In the name of the father, the son, and the holy spirit; I do not allow any negative energy, and only allow those who are for my highest good."
(You can make your own prayer that is meaningful to you as well.)

There are plenty more ways to protect yourself, but I find those the easiest, and most popular.

Also, it is never good to play by yourself. Ever. It is easier for demons to manipulate you. As well as when you are sick, tired, or in a bad state of mind.

By the way, if you are positive, you have a better chance of contacting spirits that are positive.

i personally have never used a board but have most definatly been tempted to. I'm still curious about them but have certianly been put off them from most of these stories!

I was wondering, do you think you could have psychic ability? Just a thought in case (psychosymatically of course, I'm most definatly not accusing you of moving the planchette deliberatly) that could be the reason you got correct predicted answers?

As iv said, iv never tried a ouija board so I honestly can't give an opinion on if they work or not

Sorry for the essay comment, thanks for sharing your story/s. Take care

Hey cool story. I really liked it. I always interside with Oujia. Even thought I don't have one nor did I ever use one. And I know it's dangers, because sometimes you can get a ghost you just can't get rid of. Even my own hero says there are dangers. I read a story of a another girl who used a Oujia board and she got a nice ghost that even told her to stop, or something like that. I can't remmeber the name of the story, but if I ever get the chance to use one (most likey not because most of the people I know don't belived in ghost) I hope I get a good ghost. Then again if I ever get to use one I'll do it at someone leses house, In hope, maybe, if it a bad ghost it would stay there.
