American Marcus Hitchcock from Atlanta shared a macabre story from his youth. Now he is 26 years old, and then he was 13 and he is still very scared of everything that happened.
He recounted how he and his brother were once playing with a board for talking with spirits, the so-called Ouija board, and they caused something very sinister.
“I know that a lot of people are skeptical about stories about ghosts and ghosts,” - with these words, Marcus began his story on his Twitter page, “But I strongly advise them not to joke with such things and stay as far away from spiritualistic sessions as possible. … I myself went through something terrible when I was a child."
According to Marcus, the board came to their family from New Orleans and previously belonged to their aunt, who died in 2005 from Hurricane Katrina.
Aunt moved in a wheelchair and could not get out of the house during the flooding. At the same time, according to the recollections of Marcus, she was not a very pleasant person. Firstly, she often swore at her nephews and even cursed them, and secondly, she kept an antiques shop, the basement of which was filled with various creepy objects, including candles and skulls.
Local residents as one considered this woman a witch.
After his aunt's death, Marcus's uncle traveled to New Orleans to bury her, and from her home he took several souvenirs, including the Ouija board. Markus and his brother had seen this board before in their aunt's shop, and she strictly forbade them to touch it.
But now the aunt was dead, and the brothers were very curious and they decided to use this board to summon the spirits of the murdered hip-hoppers Tupac Shakur and Biggie. They waited until late at night there were no adults at home (Marcus's uncle had gone to work on the night shift) and started playing with the board, calling on Tupac and Biggie. However, the board was "silent" and then the brothers, emboldened, called upon the spirit of the deceased aunt.

The knocks grew louder and the front door literally shook. Still trembling with fear, Marcus managed to crawl out from under the bed and walked to the door, asking "Who is there?" The knocking stopped immediately, after which Marcus and the brother who approached him ran back into the room.
But as soon as they entered, they saw a silhouette of a man standing from the side of the street against the background of the window.
In a panic, Marcus grabbed his brother and ran with him into the next room. At the same time, both heard the glass in the window of their room break. In another room, Marcus and his brother hid in a closet, but the window in this room was ajar.
When Marcus got out of the closet, took his uncle's rifle hanging on the wall and went to the window to close it, he saw a dark figure of a man on the grass in front of the house. He tried to direct a flashlight beam at him, which he had managed to find earlier, but the figure immediately ran around the house. Terrified, Marcus tried to fire his rifle, but nothing came of it.
After that, Marcus dropped his rifle and hid with his brother from the living room. And suddenly they saw the bright headlights of an approaching car in the windows. It was a neighbor and his wife, they saw that the light in the Hitchcock house suddenly went out and decided to find out what happened.
When Marcus told them that there was someone else in the house, they called the police. The police searched the entire house but found no one. There were no signs of burglary, no scratches on the window or sill, no damage from hard knocks on the front door. They found only some water on the floor and asked the boys if they had spilled anything. The children said no.
The next morning, Markus and his brother told their uncle everything, and then the uncle burned the Ouija board, and then brought it to the priest's house to bless it. However, from that day on, Marcus was very afraid to be in this house and never visited his uncle again.
While trying to explain what happened that day, Marcus initially speculated that it might have been his aunt's ghost, but doesn't really believe it. Aunt was angry, but never hurt her nephews. He also cannot explain where the water on the floor came from. It is possible that there was another spirit or even a demon.
Also, his uncle checked the weapon the next day and said that everything was fine with the rifle and it should have fired. However, for some reason she did not fire.
