I have been involved with paranormal experiences since I was a little
girl. The one thing my mother always told me growing up was to never play
with a Ouija board. It was forbidden in my household and for the longest
time I was extremely against it. I eventually broke that rule when I was 17
years old and hanging out with a group of friends on the North End of Tybee
Island behind the lighthouse.
I had a few friends give me a call one night around 7pm. We got together
like any other night, but what I did not realize was that this night would
stay with me for the rest of my life. When I arrived at our hangout I was
greeted with them playing with a Ouija board and, with some convincing,
I decided to partake. The moment my hands touched the planchet, the
object that is used to communicate with spirits, changed the atmosphere
entirely. Suddenly, a white cat appeared and joined our circle as we spoke
to the spirit realm through the board. I did not think anything of it and found
it rather cute, until my friend explained that this cat would appear each
time the board was used. This cat belonged to no one in the group and
shortly left after scaring one of our friends with its presence.
Eventually, only three of us remained in the circle and we used the
Ouija board for hours. After the group dwindled, the board became stronger
as we asked more in-depth questions. One of my friends became irritable
and began to mock the board and called it awful names. My friend asked
the board, “Are you a good spirit?” and the planchet moved to “NO.” Then
we asked together, “Are you an evil spirit?” and the planchet moved to
“YES.” My friend then asked the entity to make itself known or it would
be declared a coward. Once I realized what they were asking, I took my
hands off the board immediately. I begged for my friends to apologize for
their insults. They laughed and thought nothing of it. Shortly thereafter,
cockroaches started crawling over the board and our bodies. Frantically
we started to brush them off and then they disappeared.
After we calmed down, one of my friends asked for the entity to
show itself. We proceeded to hear rustling in a nearby tree and my friend
shrugged it off, thinking it was the white cat from earlier. Suddenly, my
friend’s face turned white and filled with fear and he began yelling that
the cat from earlier was rushing towards the tree. The moment the cat
began to climb up the tree a big black mass darted from the tree into
an abandoned building nearby in the woods. We froze in fear as the cat
stared at us for a moment and then walked away. We immediately said
“GOODBYE” to the board.
I had not seen or felt fear like that since I was a little girl involving other
paranormal experiences. Eventually a lot of us lost touch but occasionally
spoke from time to time. We have never spoken of the experience and I
have not used a Ouija board since.
Boo!! Happy Halloween!
