Episode 33: The Ouija Board Pt 1

from Anxious At Bedtime · host anxiousatbedtimepodcast

In this first installment of our Ouija board series, we dive into the eerie history of the infamous sleepover seance tool. Learn how the board named itself, why the U.S. Patent Office believed it could talk, and how it sparked not one, but two intense family feuds. We'll tell you how the mysterious death of Ouija board mogul William Fuld was blamed on the board itself - and how its co-creator, Helen Peters Nosworthy went from being one of the board's biggest supporters to warning people of its powers. Grab your favorite blanket, light a candle, and remember: we're probably fine.  If you or someone you know has ever had a brush with the paranormal and would like to have that story read on the podcast, please email it to [email protected]
