Join us as we explore the deep-rooted fear of the unexplained and unravel cautionary tales that beckon us to tread carefully. In this episode, we meet Elizabeth, a latchkey kid in the 70s and 80s, whose life takes a haunting turn when a seemingly innocuous playdate unveils a forbidden object – an Ouija board.
As lonely afternoons lead to newfound companionship, Elizabeth and her friend venture into the realm of the forbidden. Their curiosity trumps caution, and they break a rule that was meant to stay unbroken. The Ouija board shrouded in mystique and tales of its own, becomes the center of their daring experiment. What starts as playful questions soon turns into a sinister encounter as the planchette begins to move on its own, defying explanation. Skepticism turns to terror when the board, supposedly an oracle of knowledge, refuses to yield straightforward answers and instead reveals an unsettling presence.
Taunting the enigmatic entity, they demand proof of its power. In a heart-stopping twist, the lights in the house go out, plunging them into darkness and panic. Fleeing to safety, Elizabeth and her friend leave the board behind, only to realize that their actions have unleashed something beyond their comprehension. As the consequences unravel, the friend’s family vanishes without a trace, leaving Elizabeth haunted by the question: did she unknowingly release a malevolent force?
As we delve into this tale of curiosity turned calamity, we’re left pondering the age-old fascination with Ouija boards and the thin line between playful exploration and inviting the unknown.

Welcome to Paranormal night
Shift, Your fan stories told
2
00:00:03,360 –> 00:00:05,720
here.
Why are we so afraid of things
3
00:00:05,720 –> 00:00:09,720
that we don’t understand All
sorts of cautionary tales of
4
00:00:10,080 –> 00:00:12,960
things not to do?
Rules and regulations.
5
00:00:13,040 –> 00:00:17,160
That’s the thing about rules.
That means that somebody has
6
00:00:17,160 –> 00:00:20,920
already broken them once,
Elizabeth writes in I was a
7
00:00:20,920 –> 00:00:23,720
latchkey kid.
Mom and Dad worked all the time.
8
00:00:23,720 –> 00:00:27,480
So after school, I was pretty
much left by myself until 7:00
9
00:00:27,480 –> 00:00:30,830
or 8:00 when I came home.
Like most kids in the 70s and
10
00:00:30,830 –> 00:00:33,350
80s, it was not a big deal and
it wasn’t uncommon.
11
00:00:33,550 –> 00:00:37,070
I was always kind of lonely.
But a New Girl had just moved
12
00:00:37,070 –> 00:00:39,790
into our neighborhood.
She was around my age and
13
00:00:39,790 –> 00:00:42,870
actually had started at the same
school that I was going to, but
14
00:00:42,870 –> 00:00:45,910
her mom and my mom talked and
they decided that it would be
15
00:00:45,910 –> 00:00:47,510
cool.
Maybe that way we wouldn’t be
16
00:00:47,510 –> 00:00:49,110
alone.
We could just hang out in the
17
00:00:49,110 –> 00:00:50,710
same house together after
school.
18
00:00:50,950 –> 00:00:53,710
The first week we hung out at my
house and it was great.
19
00:00:53,990 –> 00:00:57,910
We get off school, watch a
movie, make popcorn and just
20
00:00:57,910 –> 00:01:00,290
hang out.
But the next week we hung at her
21
00:01:00,290 –> 00:01:02,290
house.
Her parents didn’t have a lot of
22
00:01:02,290 –> 00:01:04,050
stuff.
They had a lot of books.
23
00:01:04,370 –> 00:01:07,250
No video games, no toys, nothing
like that.
24
00:01:07,650 –> 00:01:12,250
Just books we’re supposed to do.
I’m so bored.
25
00:01:12,610 –> 00:01:14,410
Don’t you guys have anything to
do?
26
00:01:15,170 –> 00:01:17,170
There might be some board games
in the closet.
27
00:01:17,570 –> 00:01:19,890
Go look.
And it was the typical board
28
00:01:19,890 –> 00:01:22,050
games.
Twister, Monopoly part.
29
00:01:22,050 –> 00:01:24,170
Cheesy.
But then there was a Ouija
30
00:01:24,170 –> 00:01:25,810
board.
How about this one?
31
00:01:26,050 –> 00:01:28,170
Can we play with this one?
Not that one.
32
00:01:28,660 –> 00:01:30,540
My mom says we’re not allowed to
touch that one.
33
00:01:30,700 –> 00:01:32,740
You need to put it back right
where it was.
34
00:01:32,940 –> 00:01:35,500
I don’t know, but mom said it
had to stay here.
35
00:01:35,740 –> 00:01:38,060
She looked very serious as she
was telling me this.
36
00:01:38,380 –> 00:01:40,820
But at the end of the day, it’s
just a game.
37
00:01:41,180 –> 00:01:45,780
Mom said we can’t mess with it.
Something happened a long time
38
00:01:45,780 –> 00:01:47,180
ago.
She said she can’t get rid of
39
00:01:47,180 –> 00:01:50,060
it, she can’t destroy it, but
she knows that she can keep it
40
00:01:50,060 –> 00:01:51,500
here.
I don’t know.
41
00:01:51,500 –> 00:01:53,740
I don’t know the rules.
Let’s just not play.
42
00:01:53,940 –> 00:01:55,860
Me being a foolish kid, of
course.
43
00:01:56,140 –> 00:01:58,340
Just open the board game and
started playing anyway.
44
00:01:58,720 –> 00:02:01,560
I could tell that she was
terrified, but she was also kind
45
00:02:01,560 –> 00:02:04,000
of intrigued.
I mean, this was her first time
46
00:02:04,000 –> 00:02:05,800
really breaking the rules
herself.
47
00:02:06,200 –> 00:02:08,800
Come on, it’ll be fun.
Let’s ask it some questions.
48
00:02:09,240 –> 00:02:11,960
Let’s ask it how many kids that
I’m going to have, or when we’re
49
00:02:11,960 –> 00:02:14,120
going to get married, or even
better, who we’re going to
50
00:02:14,120 –> 00:02:16,560
marry.
We asked it all sorts of simple
51
00:02:16,560 –> 00:02:20,640
questions and nothing happened.
I told you, there’s nothing to
52
00:02:20,640 –> 00:02:22,720
be afraid of.
This game is broken and it’s
53
00:02:22,720 –> 00:02:24,800
silly.
That’s when it started to
54
00:02:24,800 –> 00:02:27,570
happen, though.
That’s when we saw the Plan chat
55
00:02:27,570 –> 00:02:30,490
start to move and ask questions
of its own.
56
00:02:31,290 –> 00:02:34,410
What’s your name up?
You’re pushing it.
57
00:02:34,410 –> 00:02:38,090
I know you’re pushing it, but
neither of us were touching it.
58
00:02:38,690 –> 00:02:42,450
The plan chat continued to move
across the board and ask more
59
00:02:42,450 –> 00:02:45,050
and more questions.
What year is this?
60
00:02:45,610 –> 00:02:48,130
Where am I?
If you’re supposed to be this
61
00:02:48,130 –> 00:02:52,290
all knowing all powerful board,
wouldn’t you know these answers?
62
00:02:52,610 –> 00:02:59,960
What’s your name?
Board Z OZO.
63
00:03:00,320 –> 00:03:03,600
If you mean to tell me that
you’re this all powerful, all
64
00:03:03,600 –> 00:03:06,960
knowing Ouija board thing, why
don’t you do something, Make
65
00:03:06,960 –> 00:03:09,160
yourself known.
Turn the lights off.
66
00:03:09,320 –> 00:03:12,280
Show me the power you have went
hitch black.
67
00:03:12,680 –> 00:03:14,200
Every light in the house went
off.
68
00:03:14,200 –> 00:03:17,160
We freaked out.
We left the board right where it
69
00:03:17,160 –> 00:03:19,520
was and ran over to my house.
I don’t.
70
00:03:19,560 –> 00:03:21,200
I I don’t know.
I just don’t want to play this
71
00:03:21,200 –> 00:03:24,350
game anymore and and we’re not
going to tell anybody about
72
00:03:24,350 –> 00:03:26,710
this.
We stayed at my house until her
73
00:03:26,710 –> 00:03:29,470
mom came and picked her up.
I guess she had gone by her
74
00:03:29,470 –> 00:03:32,470
house and seen that the lights
were out and also saw that the
75
00:03:32,470 –> 00:03:34,790
board was out.
She cussed my mom out.
76
00:03:34,950 –> 00:03:37,830
I’ve never seen 2 grownups
actually yell at each other.
77
00:03:38,110 –> 00:03:40,710
She kept saying that you don’t
know what your daughter’s done.
78
00:03:40,950 –> 00:03:45,190
You don’t, you don’t know what
your daughter has done ever was
79
00:03:45,190 –> 00:03:48,830
allowed to talk to her again.
They moved shortly after that.
80
00:03:49,150 –> 00:03:51,950
She stopped going to school and
and and everything.
81
00:03:52,620 –> 00:03:55,820
I don’t know what had happened,
but I did some research on the
82
00:03:55,820 –> 00:03:58,300
name as I grew up and realized
what I had done.
83
00:03:58,900 –> 00:04:02,780
I don’t know if her mom had
trapped it or if I had let it
84
00:04:02,780 –> 00:04:05,380
out.
I really don’t know.
85
00:04:05,900 –> 00:04:07,860
What’s your experience with
Ouija boards?
86
00:04:08,060 –> 00:04:10,020
Have you ever had any
communications?
