My advice is… don’t. I never believed in any of that Hoodoo stuff and am still not 100% convinced. But, I will tell you this, one summer I lived off campus at a Big 10 school. Rented house,chaos and fun. So when weird stuff would happen, we all brushed it off. One rainy day we were bored and started messing around with a Ouija board. Mostly we were all pushing the planchette deliberately for yes and no answers. “ Did Dave eat the last of my peanut butter” Someone said okay let’s get serious… it was an old house and we asked if anyone was there,yada, yada.. the planchette spelled out a name that sounded old fashioned. Like May Armbruster or something close to it. We asked when she died and got “189—“. No last digit. OK. How did you die. “Broken heart”. We stopped after that, out of boredom probably, but the five of us all denied having made the last stuff up / influencing the answers. I was studying in the main library a couple days later and decided to look at the old yearbooks. And eventually I found her. Group photo with just the names of the girls alongside in no “1st Row” order. The next year, her name was on an in memorium page with a few other names. So who knows.
The whole experience was pretty tame,but since the info turned out to be true..
I’m going to give Ouiji Boards a permanent pass.
