Possessed? Alexandra Huerta (pictured), 22, her
brother Sergio, 23, and cousin Fernando Cuevas, 18, have been taken to
hospital after reportedly becoming 'possessed' by evil spirits while
playing with a Ouija board
For whatever reason the Ouija board has consistently bit
inexperienced folks exploring spiritualism. This provides us another
example.
I think that we can be satisfied that spirit(s) is a real phenomena
able to express itself physically. There is additional indication of
divergent intention with these apparently intelligent entities and
they are not trustworthy at all. We think that they are all an
active component of past human existence and that alone should
provide serious warning as to plausible dangers.
We now have some tools and some best practice. It is high time that
this phenomena is carefully studied and tested with scientific
intent. We have been well informed but we have also not taken these
indications forward at all and we clearly need to. Otherwise we have
this innocent gamble on a Ouija board.

Three American
friends have been taken to hospital after reportedly becoming
'possessed' by evil spirits while playing with a Ouija board.
Alexandra Huerta, 22,
was playing the game with her brother Sergio, 23, and 18-year-old
cousin Fernando Cuevas at a house in the village of San Juan
Tlacotenco in south-west Mexico.
But minutes into it,
she apparently started 'growling' and thrashing around in a
'trance-like' state.

Meanwhile, Sergio and
Fernando also reportedly started showing signs of 'possession',
including feelings of blindness, deafness and hallucinations.
Paramedics were
called to the house and took the trio to hospital, according to
Alexandra's parents.
They restrained
Alexandra to prevent her from hurting herself, before treating the
three with painkillers, anti-stress medication and eye drops, which
seemingly worked.
Victor Demesa, 46,
the director of public safety in the nearby town of Tepoztlan, said:
'The medical rescue of these three young people was very
complicated.

'They had involuntary
movements and it was difficult to transfer them to the nearest
hospital because they were so erratic.
'It appeared as if
they were in a trance-like state, apparently after playing with the
Ouija board.
'They spoke of
feeling numbness, double vision, blindness, deafness,
hallucinations, muscle spasm and difficulty swallowing.'
He added that whether
the trio were really possessed, or had simply convinced themselves
that they were, was not for doctors to comment on.

The Ouija board - also
known as a spirit board or talking board - is a flat board marked
with the letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0-9, the words 'yes',
'no', 'hello' and 'goodbye' and various symbols and graphics.

It uses a small
heart-shaped piece of wood or movable indicator to indicate the
spirit's message by spelling it out on the board during a seance.
Participants place
their fingers on the wood and it is supposedly moved around the board
by the spirit to spell out words.
Mainstream religions
and some occultists have associated use of a Ouija board with the
concept of demonic possession, and have cautioned their followers not
to use one.
