Hello, everyone......I have joined this board in hopes of finding some answers to something that happened to me a long time ago....(i'm 24 now, I was about 12 at the time.) I've been wondering about it alot lately, and sadly, I am not in contact with the one person who witnessed it also anymore....but ok here goes: Back when I was in Jr. High, my best friend and I where playing with the ouija board alot. I think we knew the rules back then, like how you should say "goodbye" when your done playing with it, but it's possible that we didn't always do that. Well, one night, I cannot remember if we played with it that particular night, but it was around the time we where active with it, it was about nine or ten at night, and we where standing out in front of my house, waiting for her father to pick her up. My street is off the main street in town, and we could see the main street from where we where standing. It was all lit up, but as we where looking and talking, all of a sudden, there was no traffic. (Theres always alot of traffic on this street). Then-in the middle of the street, we saw a dark silohette of a man, just standing there, facing us. I cannot remember if he walked there, or if he just appeared, or if we just looked and he was there. Then another man came out behind him, and stood by his side. Then another man on his other side. And others-there where men (I think they where all the same height, shape) on each of his side! It was like he multiplied! All just standing there, facing us. None of them moved. And then-honestly, I don not remember what happened after that. I don't remember being scared, and I can't remember even talking about it with my friend that night! I mentioned it to my friend awhile afterwards, if she remembered it, and she did! So it wasn't just me. Does anybody have any idea what it was? Or does anyone have any similair stories of "Multiplying men?" I just really needed to get that whole thing off my chest....thanks for reading......

Wow! That's a pretty amazing story. I can't say that I've ever heard of anything like it. Does the incident still bother you? Had you actually had anything happen on the Ouija board or was more like a couple kids making out spooky messages? I guess I'm asking if the two of you were actually trying to make something happen or was it just a game? Personally I've never used a ouija board before so I don't have any idea if what happened was related to the board or not. I've heard ouija stories ranging from horrifying to just a game.

Hi! No, it does not bother me-it was such a long time ago, and the wierd thing is it didn't scare me at the time. But when I think about it now it freaks me out a little. When my friend and I where playing with the Ouija board, we did have some weird things happen, like after we finished playing with it. Like onenight outside, we heard a scary laugh, and my friend said she saw a floating hand in the driveway! I didn't see it though. So yes, back then, we didn't really see it as just a game. We really ended up scaring ourselves.

Hi PandaBabe,

I haven't heard anything quite like that, but it does remind me of my encounters with the 'dark man' years ago. Yikes, that would have been a little scary for those 'men' to appear like that - I'm surprised you and your friend weren't scared.

My best advice, stay away from the Ouija boards!

Hi Kell! What was happened with the "Dark man?" I'd really be interested in hearing your story if your okay with it.....yeah, thats the thing is I don't know why we weren't scared! Or I don't remember being scared. Maybe we didn't realize what really happened until later??? And it's cool, I haven't used an Ouija Board for a long time.

Hi PandaBabe,

I've got the story posted on our ghost stories page: The Dark Man[/URL]
There are a lot of people out there with similar stories of these dark figures, although similar, they do vary somewhat - it's creepy!

Glad you're not using the Ouija anymore!
