I’m Too Scared to Sleep: Scott Wells on His Traumatic Ouija Board Experience

I am so excited (and maybe a little freaked out) to welcome the incredibly brave Scott Wells to the show today! His new young adult novel, Marked by the Ouija, which has already given some readers nightmares. Scott shares the unbelievable, true story behind the book: how a simple, plastic Ouija board he found in his small farming town when he was 16 led to a friend’s tragic death. He reveals the terrifying experience that made two of his friends burn the board and never speak to him again , and how the subsequent guilt sent him into a spiral that led to him being homeless for a while. This is one story that still gives him goosebumps after 38 years, and I promise it will give you goosebumps too.
