True Ghost Stories: Real Haunted Ouija Boards


Zachery Knowles - 2016
     With such a long and diverse history, it’s unsurprising that Ouija has thrown up some interesting experiences. To some, it’s just a bit of fun; a spooky parlor game to pass the time with friends. For others, however, the terrifying encounter haunts them for a lifetime; an experience never to be forgotten. 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. Disturbing tales of lingering ghosts, ominous warnings, and implausibly correct predictions for the future are contained within. As we dig deeper, though, the stories become darker—demonic encounters, spirits physically attacking houseguests, and even the Ouija board becoming the motivation for murder. Never underestimate the powerful entities that the Ouija board can connect you with. As well as the compilation of terrifying true tales, Haunted Ouija Boards highlights just how dangerous this “simple board game” can be, and how to enjoy it safely—if that’s even possible. Haunted Ouija Boards will challenge skeptics to become believers. All of this, made possible by one board, with 26 letters, ten numbers, and a few simple words. 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!
