It's Spooky Month, So Let's Talk About Ouija Boards! · Pinky Boo Hauntings

  Speaker 1: Thank you. Hi, and welcome back to Pinky Boo Hauntings.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: I'll be your witchy host, Shy, and I'll be your
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: guide to all things paranormal, weird, and spooky. Well guys,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: it's officially spooky month, and I thought we could kick
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: off October with some Ouija board stories. I've been wanting
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: to do a whole episode on Ouija boards, but I
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: wanted to wait. I figured it would be a great
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: thing for Halloween. After all, I'm sure there are going
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: to be a lot of you deciding to play with
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: them this month. But be warned, the veil becomes thin
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: just in time for Halloween, so be careful when playing.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: And what better way to get you in the mood,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and maybe even stop you, before you pull a board
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: out to talk to some spirits. Our first story has
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a crazy title, and I just knew I needed to
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: read it. This one is called, Real Ouija Board Experience
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Brought 27 Spirits to My House. I wrote this article
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: last year when my university was asking for real experiences
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: or encounters with ghosts. It's long, but worth the read.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Trust me. I will never again touch a Ouija board.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: This is all real. In 2017, five of my friends
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and I moved into our new house to find we
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: weren't the only ones living there. We'd been looking forward
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to moving in for almost a year. Second year meant
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: no more cafeteria food, dorms, or public bathrooms. Only six
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: friends living together. We quickly made the house our home
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and hosting a few too many housewarming parties. We felt safe, happy,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: and comfortable in our new place. So why not ruin
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: it by inviting some ghosts to live there as well?
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'd be fine with that, but I'm also
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: used to it. I'd assume you weren't. Shortly after settling in,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: my housemates and I heard unexplainable noises throughout the house.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: we'd hear the shower's sliding door move on its own.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Footsteps sound from upstairs, and the front door open and close. Oh,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: never mind. It was already haunted. I just thought it
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: wasn't because of the title. We were suspicious of the sounds,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: but quick to burst them off and continue with our lives.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: That was... until the evening of October 25th. While all
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: six of us were sitting around the dinner table, a
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: pan on the stove began to rock back and forth
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: on its own. We tried to play it off as normal,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: but nothing could explain the shaking. We decided we had enough.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: We had to get to the bottom of these strange occurrences.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Ten minutes later, we lit candles and set up a
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: homemade Ouija board in the middle of our table. See,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: what did I say? October is the time people seem
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: to play with Ouija boards the most. It's why I
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: wanted to do this theme in this month. It just
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: made sense to me. To use a Ouija board, each
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: player lightly placed one finger on the planchette. a wooden
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: triangle used for these ceremonies, and questions the room's spirits.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: If one is contacted successfully, the planchette moves itself around
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: the board and spells out words or numbers to answer
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the questions. Is there anyone here? we ask the board.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: No response. We asked again, and again, but still, no response.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: After a couple more tries, the planchette dragged itself to
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the word, yes, written on a piece of paper. Once
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: we were sure there was someone there, we continued to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: ask questions to find out who exactly we were talking to.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: What's your name, we asked. Slowly, but surely. The planchette
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: moved to the letters A, D, and Y until it
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: spelled out Addysot. I'm not going to lie, I'm kind
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: of dyslexic, so I might be pronouncing that wrong, but
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: I looked it up and that's how it told me
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: to pronounce it, so please don't come for me. My
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: housemates and I continued to communicate with him for a
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: few minutes until we felt we were no longer speaking
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: to Addysot. We asked if there was another presence with us,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and it turned out there was. This time, the spirit's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: name was Pam, a three-year-old good spirit, according to her. See,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I like Pam. I can pronounce Pam without having to
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: look it up. Realizing there was more than one spirit
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: with us, we asked the board how many there were
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: in our presence. The planchette slid to the number eight.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: With news of our eight additional roommates in mind, we
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: decided that was enough for one night and stopped the game. Oh,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: one thing I don't think people realize is that when
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: speaking to spirits, in any way, any spirit could come in.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: They don't need to be from the area you are
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: in when speaking to them. So if they're saying there
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: are eight of them there, that could be true, but
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: that doesn't mean they're hanging around the house for good.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: So don't get too freaked out by the number. It
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: might not be anything to worry about. After looking up
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: the standard conditions for using a Ouija board, my housemates
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: and I discovered we'd broke some rules with our first try.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Ouija boards are supposed to open the connection to the
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: spirit world, attracting and inviting spirits from all over. See,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: what did I say? They might not even be from
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: that house. You might have just brought them into the
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: house when you were playing with the Ouija board. But
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: that doesn't also mean they'll stay. They shouldn't be played
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: at home. If you play where you live and connect
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: with a malevolent spirit, It can stay in your house.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Spirits can't be trusted. Okay, well, I don't know about
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: that last part, but yeah. You do need to be
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: careful when messing with the Ouija boards. But that can
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: be said about any communication device. A spirit can take
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: possession of players and gain access to their mind. The
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: next night, we decided to break out the Ouija board
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: and play again. This time, when we asked how many
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: spirits were with us, the answer was 27. I'm sorry,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: you read that you shouldn't be doing this in your
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: house because it could be dangerous and decide to keep
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: doing it anyways? After asking who was with us a
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: few times, we compiled a list of names. Oh lord,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: I'm going to butcher like half of these names. I'm
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: so sorry. And no, I'm not going to go look
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: them up this time. I'm too lazy. So, it is
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: what it is. Nudu. Sure. I don't think that's right. Bearda? Lukava? Matt?
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: We got an easy one. And Corey. Again, easy one.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: To name a few. When asked whether or not they
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: had good intentions, Nudu... I can't say this name without laughing.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: I'm going to call him New, because honestly, if I
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: keep saying Nudu, I'm just going to think of Dudu,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: and I'm 12. New was one of the few that
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: replied no. Oh, look at that. Nudu is a Dudu head.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I officially have reverted back to four now. I'm so sorry.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: I suggested asking New if he's taken possession of any
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: of us. He said, no, until it got to my housemate, Emily.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: And the planchette quickly swiveled over to yes. We put
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: news answers to the test. By asking personal questions about Emily,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: only she'd know. How many concussions has Emily had? had?
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I asked. The planchette made its way over to the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: number four. We looked over to Emily, who had a
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: look of horror on her face. New was right. While
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: New answered the rest of her questions correctly, we couldn't
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: rule out the fact Emily's hand was on the planchette.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Maybe she was purposely or subconsciously guiding it in a
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: certain direction. We told Emily to take her hand off
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the board, but stay where she was. Then we asked,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: what is Emily's brother's girlfriend's last name? None of us
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: knew the answer. The board replied. We looked over at Emily,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: and she confirmed that it was the right name. We
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: were all in disbelief. I'm kinda happy you had her
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: take her hands off of it, just to see if
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: she was the one doing it or not. A few
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: of my housemates decided they were done playing and lifted
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: their fingers off the board. Without even asking a question,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: the planchette moved over to the corner of the board.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: With only three remaining fingers on the edge of the
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: shot glass planchette, We never could have made that happen
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: on our own. Although, that was the last time we
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: ever played Ouija. The story doesn't end there. The following
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: weeks were bad. My roommates and I were constantly uneasy
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: in the house. And got especially nervous at night. We
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: all felt as though we were being watched. We saw
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: dark shadows in the corners of our rooms and suffered
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: from horrible nightmares. Emily would often wake up in the
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: middle of the night screaming for help, convinced she saw
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: a figure in front of her. One night, while I
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: was laying in bed, I heard a noise coming from
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: my window, like someone running nails up and down my
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: wooden blinds. Ew, I hate that. You guys clearly should
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: have left that board alone. I just know you didn't
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: close it outright any of the times you mess with it.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: After too many sleepless nights, we decided to hire a medium.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: We showed the medium around our home and told her
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: what happened, although we didn't tell her where we felt
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: the dark spirit. she was able to identify the exact
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: spots we felt their presence the most. When the medium
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: described the characteristics of the spirit she sensed, it was
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: exactly the type of presence I'd felt. We all agreed
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the spirit was an adult male in his late 20s
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: to early 30s. He was a bit of a loner.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Was this Adesat? She helped us remove the presence by
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: lighting sage and encouraging him to go towards the light.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: We truly felt better afterwards. I no longer saw dark
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: shadows in the corner of my room and stopped feeling
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: like I was being watched at night. We thought the
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: spirit listened to us, complied with the medium's instructions, and left.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: About a week later, When dropping off a payment for
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: the sessions, the medium told us something that stays with
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: me today. The spirit she'd help us get rid of
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: was now following her. Although this happened almost a year ago,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: there's still rarely a day that goes by where I
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: don't think about these events in one way or another. Oh, wow.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: So I assume the other spirits that came in just
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: decided to have a chat and left. And Addysot was
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: the one that was messing with you all. But I
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: can see why. This would scare you off from ever
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: using a Ouija board again. You guys were being stupid
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: when messing with it. And you seem to have broken
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of rules that are there to keep you safe.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: You should probably be happy things didn't get worse. I'm
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: also not surprised it followed that medium. I'm sure she's
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: used to that kind of thing happening. Spirits like people
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: with abilities, after all. And sometimes they like to follow
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: us around after they realize we can see them. It
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: can be a little annoying. Alright, for our next story,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: I found it in the comments of a post called
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: People Who Have Used a Ouija Board What's the scariest
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: response you've gotten? The first and only time I ever
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: used one, I was a teenager playing on it with
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: a friend on my back porch. I didn't know anyone
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: who had died, really. Except I remember from an old
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: photo on the wall, a great aunt named Neil. The
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: name Neil stuck with me because it was a boy's name.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: don't have to know anyone to use a Ouija board.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: As long as a spirit wants to come through, it
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: can be just about anyone, which is why it's best
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to have good intentions when using one. So I try
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: to talk to my great-aunt Neil, but when I speak,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I say without hesitation or control, Aunt Connie. I thought,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: that's weird. I don't have an Aunt Connie. I try again,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: and say I'm trying to speak with and mentally saying
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: the word Neal, Aunt Connie. I bet Aunt Neal wanted
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: to be called Connie, or maybe it was her middle name.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: It was an involuntary response. Very weird, but we moved
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: on and kept playing. When my mom got home from
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: running errands, she asked how her game was going. And
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: I replied, it's fine, except I keep trying to talk
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: to Great Aunt Neal, but keep saying Connie. Which is
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: so weird, because I don't have an Aunt Connie. I
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: still remember my mom's face in that moment. It turned out,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: I did have an Aunt Connie. She was a baby
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: who died of SIDS disease before I was born. My
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: mom almost named me after her. Oh, never mind, it
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: wasn't Aunt Neal. It was a whole different aunt. I
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: guess she really wanted to come through and wanted you
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: to talk to her and not Neal. I went on
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: to have extremely paranormal experiences that continue to this day, actually.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: I think it opened a door that I haven't been
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: able to close. Maybe, but probably not the way you think.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: It might have opened your mind enough for your abilities
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: to awaken. I think we'll do one more story from
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the same post. Remember, they tell you to never do
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: it alone. Well, I did, because it was the only
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: way I could be sure no one was moving the coin.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: I did paper and coin instead of a proper board
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: and planchette. Is that one of the rules to using
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: a Ouija board? I've never played with one, and I
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: only know about some of the rules. But I didn't
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: know that was one. I mean, I can understand it,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: but I also can understand why somebody would want to
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: do it alone. Like this person did. You can make
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: sure someone else isn't messing with you. But anyways, they
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: talked to someone male who died. I asked, why are
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: you still around? And it answered, car. What does that mean?
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: They're staying around for a car or something? Gave me
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: a plate number, a name of their wife, and a
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: local phone number. I started thinking, this is so mundane. Seriously?
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, mundane? You? You're getting a plate number, their
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: wife's name, and a phone number? And you think all
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: of this is mundane? They're clearly trying to tell you
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: who they were or trying to get you to contact
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: their wife. This doesn't seem very mundane to me. What
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: did you want? A demon? Fucking mundane. And it gets
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: kind of forceful. I felt the coin actually pull a
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: little and get warm. Before this, I wasn't even sure
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: it wasn't me moving it. Asked where he was, it
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: spelled Infern and went to the no answer. Inferno. Inferno
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: is hell in Spanish. Well, maybe you will get a
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: demon encounter after all, since a ghost is clearly too
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: boring for you. That detail of using the no to
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: cut corners in the spelling, interesting. I started saying goodbye,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: and it didn't answer. It simply stopped moving. It didn't
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: answer anything else I asked, so hopefully it left, but
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I didn't like Not having that assurance. Kept the thing
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: for years in a random book. Don't know if burning
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: or throwing away was a good idea. I have heard
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: burning it isn't a good idea at all. How do
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: you get rid of a Ouija board? Can somebody tell
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: me just in case I decide to use one one
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: of these days? Of course, I called the number and
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: asked for the wife. I was told she wasn't there.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: I asked, but does she live there? Of course, we
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: are notoriously paranoid as a country about giving info on
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: the phone. So I got the typical treatment. Who is this?
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Why are you calling? I hung up. So I don't
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: know if any of it checked out. Never did it again.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Never had anything weird happen after. I think that was
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: her home phone. Because they said she wasn't there, and
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: then when you pushed it, they asked who you were. Usually,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: if someone calls the wrong number, the person on the
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: other end doesn't answer like that. They would have just said, sorry,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: you got the wrong number, or something like that. So,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: while you thought it wasn't interesting at the time... I
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: think you were talking to someone. Maybe he died in
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: a car accident and just wanted to talk to his
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: wife one last time. Even if it was through someone else.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I get why you didn't, but I almost wish you
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: could have talked to her. It probably would have made
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: you rethink how you felt about the information you got
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: from the board. Because I really do think you contacted
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: a spirit. Alright guys, it's once again time to say
• 22:04
