True Story From  Harrisburg, PA

It was my sophomore year in high school (1997 Harrisburg, PA), and we were nearing the end of the school year.  A friend and I went to another friend's house on a Wednesday night and hung out for a few hours.  The following Sunday, I got a  phone call saying 5 people in my graduating class from school had been in a car accident and 3 of them died...  One being the friend's house we went to the previous Wednesday.  Of course, 3 funerals, and 2 viewings is hard for anybody to go through, especially being a teenager.  I didn't know the 3 well, but we were acquaintances.

About two weeks after the incident, I got a call at 11pm  from my good friend who happened to live across the street from me.  She was hysterical, saying that her and a friend of hers were using her Ouija board and it was saying they were talking to one of the kids who died in the accident.  I was very skeptical thinking maybe it was a prank.  But I knew she wouldn't joke about anything of that nature.

So, I walked over, and found her sitting in her bedroom with candles around in the dark.  I sat down with her, and noticed that her Ouija board looked very old and was torn a little down the center.  I picked it up and it had a copyright of 1929.  I didn't think they made Ouija boards back then!  But they do.  I'm not sure if what happened after this had much to do with it being such an old Ouija board, but I think so.

My friend told me what to do, and she started talking.  She first asked the board "Is anyone there?", It went to "YES", and she asked "Who?".  It spelled out the name of the kid who's house I was at the Wednesday before he died.  I didn't believe it, I thought maybe my friend was looking down and spelling it out.  So I decided to ask some questions that she wouldn't know and couldn't possible know.  I looked away so she wouldn't think the same about me (that I
was moving the thing).  I asked it "Who was at your house besides me, you, and my friend that came with me (sorry, no names)?" and I told Marcy to read me the letters it was going to because I had my head turned.  It started spelling out the name of the other person who was there.  I jumped up and started crying before it even finished spelling it out.  I collected myself and asked more questions to verify to myself that this was real.  "What did we eat at your house?" and it started spelling out "P-I-Z-Z..." and I again jumped up hysterical.  At that point I knew it was real.  My friend wouldn't have known that because she wasn't there, and I had my head turned.  Again, I
collected myself, and began to ask serious questions since I knew it was legitimate.  I asked "Who do you miss the most here?" and the reply was "G".   That's it, just the letter "G".  At the time, we did not know what that meant, but we later found out he called his dad "G" and we saw a birthday card he had given his father, and it was addressed to "G".  I also asked "If there's something you could say to everyone here, what would it be?".   It replied with "Wear seatbelt".  Another thing the Ouija board kept spelling
out was "L-E-I".  To this day, I do not know what that means coming from him. But it was spelled out over and over.  There were some other questions asked and we got more replies.

All of a sudden, the board went to the word "GOODBYE".  We looked at each other puzzled, and no less than 2 seconds later, her grandfather clock struck 12am.  She told me that it's not good to use the Ouija board after midnight.

I'd like to end with saying that this story is 100% true!
