As Nita Hiltner, 22, sat before a Ouija board in the early 1970s, hands pressed to the planchette, she thought of the only story she’d ever heard about the board.
“My previous experience with one was about my friend whose mother did the Ouija board during the Korean War and found out her husband, my friend’s father, who was an Air Force pilot, was killed,” she said. “That is what the Ouija board said, and a couple days later, she found out it was true.”
A friend worked with her, fingertips also resting on the plastic triangle as it began to skitter across the board. Then something happened Hiltner hadn’t expected – the board worked.
“I did a Ouija board only once, and with an older friend,” she said. “I asked if I had lived before and it said, ‘yes.’”
Both women stared at the “toy,” sold by the toy company Parker Brothers since 1966, as the loose triangle moved without their effort.
“I know neither of us was moving the plate, or whatever it is called,” Hiltner said. “We were barely touching it.”
After the board told the two Hiltner had a past life, Hiltner probed for more information.
“I asked when I was born before, and it said 1757,” she said. “I don’t think I asked where, but I asked my name, and it said Francine or Frances Oakley.”
Then the conversation turned dark.
“This is where it gets weird,” Hiltner said. “I asked it what I did for a living, and it answered ‘tart.’ Now, I did not know what that meant, but my friend laughed and laughed, and I asked why, and she told me that meant I was a prostitute.”
Concerned and insulted, Hiltner decided she’d had enough and took her hands from the planchette.
“I know some Christians say this is the devil’s work and that it would say something like that to degrade you so I considered that as to whether this was all true or a lie,” she said. “But, I had no idea at that point what that word meant. I learned something that day.”
Decades later, the Ouija’s words came back when Hiltner met someone online she may have known before.
“I met my husband,” she said. “It felt like destiny because I was going through a divorce, and not long before I met him, I was saying to myself how unfair it seemed that my ex had someone and I had no one. We wouldn’t have met if (her usual online haunt) hadn’t gone down. We were the only ones online that night, it was late, so I said, ‘hi,’ and we began talking from there.”
Their online communication and attachment grew, and one night she asked him if he thought he’d lived before.
“Now, he was in Philadelphia and I was in California and this discussion was on the computer,” she said. “He answered, ‘yes.’ I asked of all the times that had existed, when had he lived before and he said 1700s, and I am thinking ‘1700s’ before he typed it.”
As she typed her next question, for some reason unknown to her, she thought the word “Boston.”
“I asked him where of all places in the world did he live at that time,” she said. “And a few seconds later, he typed ‘Boston.’”
Hiltner and the man are now married, and she still wonders if the information given to her by the Ouija board more than 35 years ago is true.
“I have tried to research the name I was given with the Ouija board, and I haven’t found anything, yet,” she said. “But I am almost certain I will find that name someplace.”

I played with Ouija board years ago and although nothing happened during the game, but I did have the most vivid and terrifying dream that I didn't ever want to go near one again.
I haven't had any experiences with a Quija board to speak of, but my daughter's friend April had lots of paranormal activity after using the board.

Ouija board ....... subconscious or not .......many things, come through as true facts. I have worked with the board a number of times over the years, and still have a desire to work with it again. I have yet to meet people who are prepared, and have enough courage to work the board on a regular basis ... A number of meetings have been what I would call, exciting .... but people feel horrified at answers that should be secret to them only. I would love to correspond with people who are interested with an interest or a fascination of the Ouija board ........ Please feel free to e-mail me at
shaddark@hotmail.com
I just would like to talk to people with the same interest.
i was interested in your comments about meeting your husband online. i too met the love of my life via an "accidental" chat on a p2p server. we had a very similar experience to the one you describe...he would say things he *knew* about me (that he had absolutely no way of knowing) that were right on the mark...(he was in new hampshire, i was in oklahoma) we'd both know answers to questions before the answer was actually expressed in text...when we met in person it turned out we had similar mannerisms and did things in a very similar fashion. sadly he passed away two years ago this june and even that was touched by the same kind of telepathy we shared in *life*...i miss him terribly and hope we will meet again the next time around...
Ooops, sorry for the accidental delete!
As I was saying......I never liked the fact that it is sold as a child's toy.
They do work for many people.
But it is a lot like having a spirit phone in your home that accepts collect calls from anyone or .....anything.

- Ну конечно могу!
- А можно нескромный вопрос... Ты будешь во время секса кричать?
- Да, от ужаса...
- Почему?
- Потому, что я уже всё, а до конца секса ещё 1 час 50 минут!
