A macabre mistake

Playing Ouija has unimaginable consequences

By Ninfa GaleanoPublished about a year ago 3 min read

Once upon a time, in a small town, a group of four friends decided to play with an Ouija board for fun. They didn't believe in the supernatural and thought it would be a harmless game. Little did they know, they were about to unleash a curse that would haunt them for the next five years.

As soon as they started playing, strange things began happening. The lights flickered, strange whispers filled the room, and a cold chill ran down their spines. They quickly ended the game, but it was too late. The curse had already taken hold. Little did they know, this innocent game would unleash five curses upon them.

The first curse struck Melody,who began to experience strange and unexplained nightmares every night. She would wake up in a cold sweat, unable to shake the feeling of dread that lingered throughout the day.

The second curse befell David, who suddenly found himself plagued by constant bad luck. From tripping over his own feet to spilling his lunch all over himself, it seemed like nothing was going right for him anymore.

The third curse targeted Emily, who started to hear eerie whispers whenever she was alone. The voices would taunt her, whispering dark secrets and filling her mind with fear.

The fourth curse haunted Erik, who noticed strange shadows following him wherever he went. No matter how fast he ran or how hard he tried to shake them off, they always seemed to be right behind him, lurking in the darkness.

The final curse fell upon Mia, who began to see ghostly apparitions out of the corner of her eye. They would vanish as soon as she turned to look at them, leaving her feeling unsettled and scared.

As the friends realized the gravity of the curses they had unwittingly unleashed, they knew they had to find a way to break the dark magic that bound them. With each curse growing stronger and more malevolent, they banded together to research and uncover the mysteries of the Ouija board.

One night, he decided to face the curse once and for all. They gathered around the Ouija board and ordered the dark force that had awakened to leave this physical dimension. Suddenly, the room grew cold and a powerful energy surrounded them.

The friends soon found themselves facing terrifying visions and unexplained occurrences. Shadows lurked in the corners, whispering voices echoed through the house, and objects moved on their own.

Suddenly, a powerful force pushed them against the walls, trapping them in the room. The friends realized they were facing a powerful demon that wanted to consume their souls.

They were trapped in a nightmare of their own making. But instead of giving in to fear, the friends banded together, using their courage and quick thinking to combat the dark forces. They followed the advice of an old Wicca book they found in the house, performing rituals and casting spells to banish the evil spirits. To their amazement, the room started to brighten, and the demonic force began to weaken. With one final burst of energy, the friends destroyed the demon.

After a long and harrowing night, the friends finally succeeded in closing the portal they had unwittingly opened. They felt a sense of peace come over them and the curse was finally lifted.

From that day on, the friends swore never to mess with Ouija boards again. They had learned their lesson the hard way and were grateful to be free of the darkness that had consumed them.
