I was working on a farm when I was a teen. We lived near a few tobacco and watermelon fields. Back then, kids in the south worked during the summer to earn cash for new school clothes, a used car, or whatever.
One day, a buddy of mine brings an Ouija Board to the fields during lunch. We sit around, bored, back then the only cell phones we had were those black and white block phones with 'snake' and 'block' games.
Anyway two guys put their hands on the glass thing and start moving it around. My buddy asked it what someone's mom's wedding anniversary was. It gave us a date. We called the guy's mom and it was right. We didn't believe him. We were like, "you told them the answer before this to scare us. Lets ask it something NONE OF US know."
So finally this big guy that lived in a town 10 miles from us says "When is the truck thats going to load the crops coming in?" There was a truck that was supposed to pick up a delivery about 10am and it never showed. The board says 5:36.
We didn't believe it, because why would a truck show up that late in the afternoon? It would likely come the next day if was going to be after 3 or 4 pm. So we are all working, nothing happens. It turns 2pm, 3pm... The truck never shows. We get off at 5pm for the day. We all decide to wait until 5:36pm because why not? It's only 36 minutes longer and it was the Summer. About 5:25 one guy says "This is stupid, I'm going home. I want to go swimming at the springs." We are like, "Dude, it's 11 more minutes." I think he was actually nervous to be honest.
Finally 5:35 rolls around. We start laughing. We look at each other like, "Wow, we just wasted 30 minutes because of this stupid superstitious board." As we start to leave we hear a rumble in the distance, we look up, we see dust coming up the driveway. It's the truck. I look at my cell phone at it says 5:36... My buddy took the Ouija Board and threw it in the fire barrel. I never touched one of those things again.

Isn't burning it supposed to be the worst thing to do to a Ouija board? It releases the spirits or leaves the gateway open or something.

However, now that you mention it. My buddy died 3 years later at 19 in a car accident. He was with 4 guys at a construction site. They were late coming back from a lunch break, sped around a semi truck and hit another car head on. |

On the one hand, I tend to be rather skeptical by nature about these kinds of stories because--ehh!--that's just who I am. On the other hand, I'm perfectly open to the possibility of the supernatural and have not given way to mindless materialism. For that reason, I have no desire ever to mess around with a Ouija board or some other such device. Probably my innate Christianity behind it too. To put it another way, as Germaine de Staël told Sir Henry Holland when he asked if she believed in ghosts, "I don't believe in ghosts, but--oh!--I am afraid of them." (Original: " Non, je n'y crois pas, mais je les crains.") By the way, if your friend did pass away after the incident in question, my condolences, Mello. |

Both the ouija board story and his passing at 19. I will say, it could be a coincidence. The longer time passes the more I lose that initial feeling of shock. However, it's an odd coincidence. I like your quote. I'm usually in that same camp. |

I completely believe you. When I was younger, some friends and I messed with one of those things and it also predicted the future and other things. Some other eery things happened along with it that made me not want to ever look at one of those things again.

Ummm, why did you burn it? If it predicts the future -- then, helloooo -- the next day's lottery numbers?!?!  |

You are supposed to bury it, or immerse it in water until it starts to fall apart. I've heard about people burning Ouija's but supposedly made their problems worse. I have had mine for a year now. I haven't used it yet going in blindly, and out of reverence.
If there really is anything out there malevolent, I want to ensure I don't make my Ouija experience worse if that's possible.

Blondes are usually into the Ouija board, right?
