Life is filled with risks and unknowns. This is no different when using an ouija board. You could contact a loved one and have a pleasant experience, you could have nothing at all happen, and according to some if you're not careful, you could open a spiritual realm, inviting malevolent entities you never intended to contact. You can get attachments, you can be oppressed. You could also be manipulated, as you have no way to actually know if who you're talking to is who they say they are. Nevertheless, the ouija board continues to be one of the most iconic items in a variety of spiritual practices and paranormal investigations. Countless stories persist of strange and unexplained phenomena when using one. So today, we will be exploring the history of ouija boards, and the infamous urban legend of Zozo the demon. You will also hear several paranormal encounter stories from today's special guest.
