Scary stories & Urban legends

In the shower

In seventh grade, my friends and I went to another girls house intent on playing with her mom's Ouija board that night. Before we used the board, Mary warned us that her mom would be really pissed if she found out that we were playing with it because Ouija boards can attract bad spirits into the home. With full knowledge of this, we decided to proceed anyway.

We started just goofing around and "communicating" with random spirits until we finally met one that had us in tears the entire sleepless night. First, we asked the spirit if it was a man or a woman, to which he replied "M-A-N". Then we asked how he was killed: "M-U-R-D-E-R". All of a sudden, before we even asked another question, the glass goes to the eyeball symbol, then spells out "I-N", and goes to the water symbol.

We didn't have a clue what that meant. It wasn't too scary until the spirit spelled out "S-H-O-W-E-R" and my best friend realized that the spirit was trying to get us to look into the shower.

We froze. I've never been so scared in my entire life, especially sitting directly in front of the bathroom with the shower curtain all the way closed, faced in my direction. We all screamed and felt like we were being watched.

I'll never use a Ouija board again because of how crazy and intense that night was. I understand that people say Ouija boards are controlled by your subconscious but f**k that. I know I felt something in that room with us. I know it was dangerous.
