SUMMONING ZOZO | The Demon Nightmare Brought Into Our World By a Ouija Board!

Some say Zozo is just a trick of the mind, but after countless chilling Ouija board encounters and centuries of whispered warnings, maybe it’s something far more sinister.EPISODE PAGE (includes sources and transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/SummoningZozoIN THIS EPISODE: The Zozo demon has allegedly harassed hundreds via their Ouija boards. But is this demonic force from the spirit world or from our own minds? *** Citizens of Van Meter, Iowa were confronted with a tall, human-like figure with bat-like wings, a single horn on its head, and it, apparently, was bullet-proof. What was this supernatural creature people were seeing? *** A bride-to-be becomes worried when her fiance disappears – so she contacts a psychic friend to see if she can help. *** Something sinister creeps into a Christian boarding house. *** Bram Stoker wrote his classic novel “Dracula” in 1897… but vampires are much, much older than that. *** A supposedly cursed doll has remained in the protection of one family for over four generations. But why would this family keep hold of such a demonic item? *** They are almost always silent, enigmatic figures usually seen at a distance up on ridges silhouetted against the darkening twilight sky, always at around dusk or dawn, quietly looking over and surveying their domain with unknowable purpose and often vanishing in the blink of an eye. What are the dark watchers of California?CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Disclaimer and Lead-In00:01:12.727 = Show Open00:03:37.878 = Zozo And The Ouija Board00:11:10.107 = The Van Meter Visitor00:21:40.657 = Back To Say Goodbye00:28:17.688 = Spirit Drawn to Teenage Emotions00:33:38.525 = Older Than Dracula00:42:05.860 = Joliet, the Haunted Doll00:45:23.026 = The Dark Watchers of California00:57:43.160 = Show Close00:58:33.668 = Final ThoughtSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Zozo and the Ouija Board” by Mark Oliver for All That’s Interesting: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/yc2rhvtz“The Van Meter Visitor” by Troy Taylor for American Hauntings Ink: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p8kupf3“Spirit Drawn to Teenage Emotions” by Lemurian Emerald, posted at Your Ghost Stories: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4erh8ezb“Older Than Dracula” by Sam George for Ancient Origins: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4hv6sdmc“Joliet: The Haunted Doll” by Chris for Real Paranormal Experiences: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p9fmmx7“Back to Say Goodbye” by Judy Rad, posted at MyHauntedLifeToo.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3bkkpbjb“The Dark Watchers of California” by Brent Swancer for Mysterious Universe: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/yckxrfkv=====(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.
