When I was a teenager, me and my friends would get together and play the ouija board.
We never took it seriously, it was just something to do on a rainy day.
I think it was Melissa who thought of the idea, we were all excited and scared at the prospect.

We didn't have a proper board, so we made our own. We did this by cutting out and labelling the letters of the alphabet, yes and no, and numbers one to nine.
The first time we did it was on a rainy, stormy night, we all sat around a table, with our makeshift board.
Then we all put our fingers on the glass, I asked the first question, which was "who are you".

The glass moved it first went to T, then O, then M. I was really freaked out, but after a while I realised that one of my friends was moving the glass. We carried on for a while longer, but we all knew it was pretend. There again we didn't really believe anything was really going to happen.

We continued using the board, on a regular basis, we would do it at least once a week. However, nothing ever happened, someone would always move the glass. I don't really know why we carried on with it, I suppose we were hoping something would happen eventually. And it did.

We got together on a Sunday night; it was during the school holidays, the next day I was going on a day trip to Blackpool, with another friend, who wasn't part of our Ouija group.

Anyway we set the board up as usual, and I started by asking, "Is there anybody there". The glass then violently moved it went to D, O, N, T, G, O. Don't Go. The room also chilled, it wasn't icy, it was just strangely cold. I knew that none of my friends moved the glass, because it moved in a totally different way than it ever had done in the past.
Ever time someone asked a question, it just kept saying Don't Go. I didn't have a clue what it meant. We must have asked twenty questions, but it kept saying the same thi
ng over and over. So we eventually gave up and put the board away, and decided to watch a video instead.

The next morning, I got up late, and I was rushing about trying to get ready, because I only had half an hour before the coach was due. I bounded down the stairs, tripped and broke my ankle. Of course, I couldn't go on the trip; instead, I had to go down to the hospital. I was really upset because I'd been looking forward to it for ages.

Later that evening a news flash came on, on the return trip, the coach that I would have been on, had crashed on the motorway.
My mum and dad were really upset, they kept saying, "that could have been you" I thought back to the night before, "don't go." I knew then that something was warning me not to go. I didn't mention what the ouija board had said, to my mum and dad, firstly because they wouldn't believe me, and secondly because they would go mad if they knew I was meddling with it.

I still carried on with the board, because now it held some kind of new fascination for me, I felt as though maybe I was in some way special. If I could turn back the clock now, I would have stopped there and then, if I knew what was going to happen.

My next encounter with the spirit world was two months after the previous event.
I would always start with the first question. I said, "What's your name". The glass violently moved as it had done last time. It spelt out H, E, R, B, E, R, T. I then asked what he wanted, and it said. Y, O, U.

I then asked Herbert to be more specific.
It then said. I, W, A, N, T, Y, O, U, T, O, S, U, F, F, E, R.
I said who, it said M, A, N, D, Y. That’s my name.

I then asked it why, it said B, E, C, A, U, S, E, I, D, A, K, I, L, L, E, D, M, E.
I didn't have a clue who Ida was, I tried to ask it who Ida was, but it just kept saying H, A, T, E, Y, O, U.

What happened terrified
me, I felt as though this spirit had it in for me, so I told my friends that I wasn't doing the board again.

I stopped doing it, and I thought that would be the end of it, however I was wrong.

One day my mum and dad had both gone out shopping leaving me alone in the house. I spent the day chilling out. At dinnertime, I went into the kitchen to make some sandwiches. As I was buttering some toast, the room turned icy cold, my hair began to stand on my head, it felt as though it was being pulled very hard. I could feel a presence, it was so strong, I knew not to look, but my head mechanically turned towards the presence.

In the corner was a man, he was dressed in an old black suit, with a yellow coloured shirt, he had white hair, and his face was kind of hollow.
He smiled at me, as he did, he revealed a set of large yellow teeth, I noticed that he wasn't smiling, he was indeed sneering, it was as though he found me really disgusting, he looked at me like you would look at a cockroach.

I couldn't move or talk, I tried to but nothing happened. He then just disappeared.
After this had happened, I couldn't sleep at nights, I hated being in the house by myself. I lost all my confidence, I was a very outgoing girl, and I turned into a mouse.
Gradually I started to turn back to my normal self, because I never saw the man again.

Five years later I had my own flat, and the man was a distant memory.
One day I was dusting the lounge, when the room turned icy cold, at that moment I knew, it was him, all the memories came flooding back to me, I turned towards him, and it was indeed him. He looked exactly the same as before, but this time, he looked so evil, it was oozing from him. He just looked at, his eyes were boring into me, and he was laughing, but there was no sound.

The next minute the telephone rang, the man then disappeared. I answered the telephone, and it was my mother, she was in a co
mplete state, the house had been burgled. I went straight down to her house, it hadn't just been burgled, it was as though animals had been there. I few electrical goods had been stolen. But more sickening was that someone had urinated and defecated on the floor, and also You Will Suffer, was scrawled on the walls.
At that point, I knew that the man I had seen twice, either had done it, or knew it was going to happen.

From this day on I live in fear, that he will return and something really terrible will happen to me or my family.
All this trouble was caused by playing the Ouija board for a laugh.

Everything I have said is TRUE.
If you do decide to play, you do so at your own RISK.
I believe the Ouija provides a gateway for spirits to enter out realm.
So remember BEWARE! It’s not a GAME!
