Ep. 023 - The Name of the Game

Hex Positive

Halloween may be over, but I’m not ready to be done with Spooky Season just yet! As such, this month, I’m diving into the history of Ouija boards, tracing their origins from the spiritualist camps of the late 1800s to their development as a popular party game to some of the modern myths surrounding the board. We’ll try to separate fact from urban legend, and the source of some of the things we THINK we know might surprise you.
