History of the Ouija Board and True Ouija Stories from Gma Bug!

September 13, 2020 • Season 1 • Episode 9

Jump in for a brief history of the Ouija Board that builds up to some real stories from our very own Gma Bug who used one! This "novelty game" was used for decades in her family as a serious way to communicate with an omniscient presence but never felt it was "evil". From asking about date night antics to death, birth, and missing persons, this family asked it all. Follow us through the main "rules" of the game and see what was followed... and what wasn't. ;) Sources below!
