These people would instantly erase their experience, if only they could… Haunted Ouija Boards dives into some of the scariest encounters, giving us a spooky glimpse into the paranormal world—the book is filled with true stories from non-believers, believers, and Spiritualism fanatics, giving you a wide range of sources.

And a little help from the spirit world, of course. Ready to scare yourself senseless? Scroll to the top of the page and hit buy!
