At midnight,

In a pitch-dark hostel room.

The Ouija board was in the middle, and four of us sat on each side of the board.

One candle over the desk lit up the room.

Only silence remained, and the sound of heartbeats became audible in the dark room.

The four of us held the coin. I was warned not to take my finger off the coin until it was over.

It was my first time, so I was guided by my friends.

I was told to close my eyes and pray for good souls to come and talk to us through the Ouija board.

Around 20 minutes later, the coin started to move.

I thought my friends were moving it, and they thought others were doing it. The suspense rose among everyone, and they started saying, “Don’t push the coin.”

One of my friends asked, “If you are here, please go to YES.”

The coin moved slowly to YES!

Everyone looked at each other with a dead-scared look.

We asked, “Are you a good soul?”

The coin moved to NO!

Sweat rolled down my face.

We asked, “How many of you are here?”

The coin moved to number 4.

I felt real fear for the first time in my life.

My body began to shiver out of fear. My friends understood and warned me not to take my finger off the coin at any cost.

I just nodded and said, ‘Okay.’

Another friend asked, “Show us where you four are.”

The coin pointed toward the direction where the other ghosts were!

We were all in shock, literally scared, and wanted to end it for now.

We requested the bad soul to leave us by going to the GOODBYE mark.

It moved to NO!!

We started begging, “Please go to the GOODBYE mark!”

It stayed on, NO!!

My other friend asked, “When will you leave?”

It moved to 4.

We were panicked because the was around 1 at the moment.

Finally,

We ended up waiting 3 more hours, holding the same coin, out of fear.😂

At that time, I had no idea if it was real or a prank made by my friends, but it was a thrilling experience, and It was my very first Ouija board experience!

Have you ever tried one like this?

The coin moment is called the Ideomotor Effect.

We might think we’re not making any movement, but it’s the very slight, unconscious movements of our muscles that cause the motion over time, especially when holding something for a long period.

For example, Imagine you are holding an oscillating ball on a rope and trying not to move it. Even though you aren’t intenaitlly doinga anything, the ball will begin to swing back and forth on its own. This happens because of tiny, involuntary muscle movements that you don’t consciously control.
