The Old Ouija
by Allison A.

My nephew and I, who are a year apart, were into the same things at the same time. We both enjoyed the Ouija board. We "played" with it quite a lot. We had a really old one that his grandmother had found in her mother's attic. That was the coolest thing to use until this day. It was a summer day and we decided that we would go outside and play around with it. We started with the normal "Is there anyone there?" and "Who are you?" After about five minutes of talking to this spirit, figure eights started. Normally, when this starts we stop, but something compelled us to continue. This was a mistake. As the figure eights got faster and faster, the planchette came onto our legs, which scared us to death. We stopped and went into the house. With all doors and windows closed. Later on, we sat down to eat lunch. As I looked up, I screamed. The hanging plant in the kitchen was swaying very fast. My nephew saw it and told me to go stop it. I was very very scared something would happen to me, but I worked up the nerve to go stop it. I went closer to the plant and it started to slow. I stood next to it for a moment when it swung so hard it went flying off the hook and went through the window. We were so frightened we went to the neighbor's house until his mom got home. Needless to say, we got into big trouble when she arrived. We were forbidden to touch it again. But that didn't last very long.
