Ouija Boards are not a game

(Michigan)

My experience with a Ouija board happened about twelve years ago. A friend of the family was house sitting for some of her friends and found the board in their house. Some time later, I was told that the people whom she was house sitting for didn't seem to know where the board had come from. My sister's and I started playing around with it.

It was the first time I'd ever seen a Ouija board. The board spelled out a message that warned our friend that her boyfriend was in the company of another woman at that moment. We thought it was a joke, however, our friend became spooked and sent the board home with us.

My sister's became uninterested in playing with the board after a short time so I started spending a lot of time communicating with this entity that called itself "John." Soon the action of just moving a marker around on the board manifested into more physical incidents. "John" began talking to me and physically touching me.

I soon began a very sexual relationship with this entity. He would answer questions that pertained to events that happened way before my time or century. His use of language and grammar seemed somewhat ancient in dialect and structure. Because I'm an artist, I was able to draw interpretations of events according to what he would say.

Eventually, things got to the point where I was afraid to sleep because, when I did, I could feel my soul being pulled from my physical body. "John" would tell me that he was a prince and that he wanted me to kill myself so that I would be with him forever. He kept pointing to my abdomen and telling me to open up to him.

It became more difficult to resist that feeling of being pulled out of my physical body so I began to pray. I no longer wanted to be a part of this situation. "john" told me that my tears were a foul odor to him. He hated for me to cry. One night I prayed so sincerely and so hard that God rescued me through the guidance of his very real but quiet, calm, gentle voice.

He told me what to do in that dark room and I obeyed without question. My eyes remained shut but my sister, who was sleeping nearby at the time, says that small dark figures that looked like bats fluttered around the room moments before vanishing into thin air. There is a lot more to this account than I will write at the moment but I will say that God delivered me that night and I never played with the Ouija board again.
