Demonic possessions through the Ouija board.
Over the years, many participants in this type of "game" have shared thousands of stories about communicating with an invisible presence. These stories speak of countless threatening warnings, haunting predictions, and knowledge of intimate information. And recent events in a Peruvian school have reopened an old debate: can demonic entities possess their victims through the ouija board?
As we already published in M.E.P., about 100 children from the Elsa Perea Flores school in Tarapoto, in northern Peru, suffered an epidemic of “demonic possession”. The children experienced muscle convulsions and fainting, and many others claimed to have seen a "man in black" chasing them around the school. Although the most terrifying of all was that certain information indicated that the children had been practicing with the Ouija to get in contact with demonic entities.
Brief history
There is a belief in many cultures that people can get in contact with demonic spirits or entities by using a Ouija board. As we have commented in various publications, the word ouija was a mixture of the words oui and ja, which mean "yes" in French and German respectively. Those most critical of the use of the Ouija assure that it is a very dangerous occult tool, while the defenders say that, like other forms of divination, it is a legitimate means to discover universal wisdom and to communicate with disembodied beings. .
The board includes the letters of the alphabet, numbers 0-9, the words "yes" and "no," and a heart-shaped pointer on three felt-tipped legs. One or two people place their fingers on the pointer, which moves when answering the questions. In most cases the answers are probably part of the practitioners' subconscious, even when the spirits identify themselves and give messages. However, in other cases the Ouija's pointers have been seen flying and spinning out of control, as if directed by invisible forces.
The Ouija enjoyed enormous popularity during and after World War I, when many people were desperate to communicate with loved ones who died in the war. In 1966 William Fuld sold his patent to Parker Brothers, who succeeded in renewing an interest in the occult and the supernatural. However, the American company has always emphasized that the Ouija is a game for entertainment purposes.
Demon possession and the Ouija board
In Esoteric and Paranormal World we always advise against the use of the Ouija since there are many people who are not aware of its dangers, such as demonic possession. Some experts say that the Ouija opens the door to possession by evil spirits. They maintain that contact with such entities is inherently dangerous, and that all beings who communicate through such a device are of demonic origin with the sole purpose of possessing the user. One of the best-known entities is Seth, who was popularized thanks to the writings of Jane Roberts in the 1960s and 1970s, and who communicated with Roberts through a Ouija board. Communication progressed rapidly to automatic writing with a pen and then to a trance state, in which Seth controlled Roberts' vocal cords to speak.
Although possibly the most dangerous demonic entity that we can find in the Ouija is Zozo. The first known appearance of this entity occurred in 1816, when a young woman from Picardy, in northern France, was the victim of a demonic possession. The young French woman became a whole "portal" for a series of demons, one of which was Zozo. But in the 20th century, the stories about Zozo continued, numerous people ended their lives shattered after contacting this demon through the Ouija board.
